Jim –
Nice solid welder for Aluminum Tig welding. I run a shop and welders like this machine a lot. Will buy other welders from Canaweld for sure.
Michael –
The machine is well built and looks and feels like a professional machine that it is. The settings are easy to find and understand and it came with pretty much everything you need to get started.
Andrew –
Finally Tig welder really made in Canada. If you are tired of Chinese products then you are at the right place. Good price.
Maira –
Quite a decent suite of features for a unit in this price range, it’s built to last by the feel of it, and altogether I think it would be an excellent addition to anyone’s setup!
Kimi –
Replaced my old Lincoln welder with canaweld Tig welder. Its powerful machine and I’m happy I purchased it. like the after sales support.
