Lincoln Electric 90i FC Flux Core Wire Feed Weld-PAK Welder, 120V Welding Machine, Portable w/Shoulder Strap, Protective Metal Case, Best for Small Jobs, K5255-1

Love this little welder. I set mine up on gas and it does a great job. I’ve always been used to running a two twenty welder even on lighter materials but this thing does an amazing job of lighter materials.

This is a small machine, but performs like it's the bully on the block. Welds perfect welds, just like a Lincoln. The ad I saw was correct, you can carry this one via its strap on your shoulder to the welding location. Just plug in set controls and weld. No problems yet. Really like the size of this one!!

Let me start of by saying I am not a welder. I am a high school science teacher by trade. I am very handy and have a love of woodworking, electronics repairs, building/engineering design projects, and a wide variety of other things, but I am not a professional in any way. I would call myself a DIY enthusiast. I recently needed a welder to repair some steel fencing around the house. I looked into my options and decided that a flux core welder would probably be idea, but I always try to buy tools that are better than my needs, with the idea that they will last a lot longer and be more versatile. MIG welding is one of those things that I may need at somepoint down the road when I am working on cars (another hobby of mine), so when I saw that this one could also be setup for MIG welding I decided to spend a bit extra for that capability since I do not want to have two welders in my garage. This one is wonderfully compact and runs off the 110V power from my house. I do use a thicker gage extension cord with it but when I set it up with Lincoln Electric branded flux core wire (ordered seperately) and set it to the recommended settings for the job I was doing I found that it was very easy to use. My welds were not pretty because I am not a professional welder, but I did find that I was able to get very good results and within just a few welds I was getting very nice results. I was very impressed with how portable this welder is and how little space it takes up. My backpack of welding supplies and safety gear (also from Lincoln Electric) actually takes up more space than the welder. Heck, I think my welding helmet is larger than this welder. Setting it up was easy. Using it was easy. This was definitely a better welder than I needed, but I am so glad I have it!

Tiny, light and super portable. But it welds just great on thin things. I use it for welds on stainless steel tables that are 14-18 gauge instead of using my big welder. The lower power is perfect and I don't have to keep changing out wire spools back and forth.

I didnt expect much from this little 110 wore box. I got it for light duty repairs and easy portability. It looses a star for not having a dang handle. That shoulder strap stinks. I put one on it anyway but man...always make a welder intended to move around like this one with a handle. Also the star loss is because it only takes 1 lb spools. I know they were trying to make it ultra portable, but come on at least 2lb spools guys. At least. Other than that this thing is amazing and welds great. Best flux core welder ive ever had. And way stronger than advertised. I think they do that thing where they claim it will only weld so thick of steel but make it stronger so its impossible to not have enough juice than to weld what is advertised. I have welded half inch plate with this welder. It was just supposed to be a quick fix till I could get back to a big 220 stick welder I have, when I went to cut it down to fix it properly, this little box had gotten penetration half way though 1/2 in plate on one pass! I couldn't believe it. In any case, worth the money. Works great. Long duty cycle for such a small unit. If you are welding 1/4 steel or less all the time you'd never not be able to weld it. Only drawback is its not a mig /flux combo but...that unit is like 3 times the price so.

The Lincon 90i was everything I had heard about them. I am a beginner to welding and only need one from time to time. It was very easy to set up and operate. It welded perfectly and allows me to take on the small jobs around my place with confidence.

Fast shipping and good price. Welder works great for small fixes around the home

Works great and after a couple of YouTube tutorials I became better and more confident

Great for body work

Es simplemente excelente , que bien solda, hasta es un gozo soldar con un buen alambre, excelente sonido de ejecución , excelentes terminados.

muy buena maquina me dejo sorprendido e durado mucho soldando y como si nada , vale lo que pagas

La encontre de oferta y ha sido una de mis mejores compras, facilita mucho que sea microalambre si no tienes mucha experiencia soldando. He hecho varios trabajos y no he tenido ningun problema.

Llegó rápido, perfectamente empacada, buena calidad general, es la 1a vez que uso una flux core y no batallé para nada con los ajustes. Algo importante es tener un termomagnético de al menos 20A pues si llega a los 20-27A de consumo en promedio, llegando a picos de 40A si se alarga el arco. Mi termomagnético es de 20A y no tuve problemas, aunque no subí más allá de la mitad de la potencia, la corriente de salida llega a los 100-110A en nivel de voltaje 4, asi es que da muy buena salida, apenas comienzo con esto pero muy satisfecho con la compra. De momento solo la he probado en flux core bobina de 1lb lincoln, y sin problema, como nota adicional, parece funcionar con bobinas de hasta 2 lbs en flux core. En Mig se supone no hay problema, en flux core dice el manual que hasta 1 lb, pero hay un video de una persona usandola con bobina flux core de 2 lbs sin problemas. El regulador venía con los tornillos de la carátula muy flojos, los apreté y parece no haber falla, falta conectarlo a gas.
