The machine is lightweight, easily portable, and will accommodate a larger wire spool. The instructions are a bit vague, and you should be aware that when using flux-core wire you need to have the ground clamp positive. this means you put the jumper cable in the right-hand connector.
I downgraded my assessment of this machine because the wire feed wheel included on delivery is not suitable for the flux-core wire shipped with the machine.
If you look at the photograph I included you will see that the right-hand wheel is smooth and the left-hand wheel is serrated. The smooth wheel is (included with the welder) is for solid MIG wire. While it did work with the flux-core wire it tended to squash the hollow wire and make it less effective and harder to weld with.
The left-hand wheel with the teeth embedded are specially made for flux-core wire and is the part that should have been included with the welder instead of the smooth one.
I purchased this wheel elsewhere because I did not wish to go through the drawn-out process of contacting Vevor customer service and waiting for a replacement part. If you do not mind going to the extra expense and and time of replacing the feeder wheel then by all means order this product.
For this reason, I have only given this product 3 out of 5 stars for quality and functionality. If the proper wheel had been included I would have given it 5 stars.
