Great welder great price
Great welder!!! Have had it over a year now and it does everything as advertised. However the trigger switch has had to be taken apart and cleaned a couple of times which is kind of hard to do. It is a pretty cheap switch. But other than that it welds really nice and the duty cycle has been more than what I need and it is 100% duty cycle at 193 amps which can do most of the welding I need. all in all it is a great welder and has never let me down
I am pretty much a professional.
I haven't welded since high school back in the early 80's. I thought I would try my hand at it now that I am retired, and enjoying my life. I chatted with Grok for a few hours during Amazon's last Prime days back in October. Grok helped me decide on what welder to get. I decided on 165 DS Pro from YesWelder. I watched some YouTube video, and felt like I was pretty much a professional by the time my welder arrived. I hooked it up, plugged it in and put a piece of angle iron on my Titanium welding table, and boom, I realized I sucked at welding. But, I did a little more research, asked some questions of my brother in law who is a 40 plus year professional welder, and he helped me dial in my settings. Now I am killing with some scrap yard steel, and some cold rolled round rod. My beads are pretty good, and I am almost done with my first project. A gate for our front yard entry. So far I have only done Flux Core, but someday I plan to get a bottle to do some MIG, and possibly a TIG gun to try that as well. I am only using it on 110v but it has the ability to do 220v as well. Easy to use once you get the idea of how to set it up for the type of steel you are welding.
Excellent all-in-one welder!
The YESWELDER MIG-205DS PRO is super easy to use and perfect for anyone from a beginner to a weekend fabricator. I love that it runs on both 110 V and 220 V, so I can use it anywhere — from the garage to the shop. Switching between MIG and stick welding is quick and straightforward, and the controls are very user-friendly.It’s also spool-gun ready, which means I can weld aluminum without needing a separate machine. This single unit really does it all — MIG, stick, steel, aluminum — all in one compact setup. Great value, great performance, and incredibly convenient!

Consistency, power, durability
Alright so this is gonna be a very honest reveiw, i am a welder, i do this for a living, i bought the mct-520 from YESWELDER, it didnt have enough power to push .030 e71t wire without stuttering, it just couldnt do it efficiently, i do stick, fluxcore, and tig both at work and home. Now i sent my mct-520 back and got this one because of the higher amperage duty cycle, figured maybe it could handle it better, i have a stick and tig welder at work but wanted a flux core for pipe repair and thin stuff thats extremely dirty, i used the same wire, the same mb24kd mig gun on both, and this one ran amazing, its super smooth, very powerful, better than the esab rogue i have at work, which is saying something, i use it for all 3 processes, now for the fluxcore im running hobart e71t-11 .030" wire, and this thing hasnt bird nested on me even once, its smooth, its consistent, i used it just yesterday welding rails on a mezenine for about 8 hours worth of welding, i also built a 3 ton hoist with this thing and it was good. I run mine on 220, i dont use 110 even at home, i have a 220 outlet i hooked up for it, itll run stick like a champ too, i mean honestly i can run a 1/8" 7016 rod as low as 70 amps, i ran some 5/32" e308l16 rods the other day bridging a 2 inch wide hole in a machine plate at around 70 amps and it did it very well. So i am extremely pleased with the output quality of this machine, and the build quality is very nice too, the only thing i dont like is the euro style connector for the mig gun, its not bad, but its not nearly as durable as the tweco style american mig connectors, so it can bend easily if hit, but besides that, the machine itself is really well built, i work in a concrete plant for quickrete by the way im a fabricator, so this thing is used in an extremely dusty dirty harsh environment and its holding up well.
Don't let the price fool you, Best welder on amazon under $200
I read pretty much every review for this welder on here and decided to buy it. I was very skeptical while waiting for it to arrive due to the price at which they are offering this thing. When I got it, the box it came in wasn't all dressed up like one from a local store so that had me concerned but as I started unpacking, I couldn't help but notice that the quality of the leads, ground, and gun was way better than I expected. (Actually better than Harbor F.). Had to set it up immediately and try it out and I first tried the synergetic mig and was blown away and how easy and good this thing welds. For this price I know what I'm getting my dad and brother for Christmas!

Great price, great welding machine!
Great welding machine, I really love it. The interface is very easy to understand and to change mode from Arc to MIG for instance. I used it both for fluxore and rod welding so far and it is doing a great job. Installation of wire is easy too and I live the button to feed the wire in the gun.Overall a solid choice for weekend warriors / fabriators at a nice price especially when on sale. Got it for around 375$ CAD if I remember correctly. I could not miss that deal and don't regret it at all.I also got the cotton jacket from Yeswelder and it's a good product too.I went too fast to choose the Fluxcore wire and got the general type (GS) but realised that I would be better with a multi pass wire E71T-11 ftom Hobart and it does a nicer job than Yeswelder' own E71T-GS or probably any other E71T-GS. My tip: grap some quality E71T-11 and live happy. 😉

Great welder for my steel fence
Awesome welder. I had never welded anything. I learned on YouTube. I welded 280 steel fence posts to complete my project. This welder worked super well and shows no sign of problems. I used the flux core wire. I ran the welder using a 30 amp circuit on a generator.
Great welder, great value, and great customer service.
I am a "car guy) doing restoration of my own vehicles as a hobby. Decided to take the plunge and start doing metal work / rust repair. Bought an MP2000 because it did everything I needed. Have been using the MIG welder, mostly for sheetmetal, for a year now. Great welder, great value, and great customer service.
Great little unit!
I've had this welder for nearly a year, and have run almost 5 lbs of wire through it. I must say I'm impressed. I'm far from an experienced welder, but I must say this thing is impressive! It has welded everything from standard thickness exhaust to frame patches on a 1/2 pickup. It only experienced one issue during this: the lead that feeds power to the gun came disconnected inside the connector that goes to the machine- which was easily repaired.Overall it's been pleasant to use, and if I ever need another one this will be it! It's also very light. If you need a 120volt flux core welder for light duty work this might be the one for you!
Fully functional but not friendly to beginners
The welding machine is indeed very comprehensive, supporting MIG, TIG and electric welding, and the display is also large and clear. But the instruction manual is a bit simple, not enough for beginners. The current control feels unstable during welding, and you need to adjust it more to find the right parameters. Overall, the price-performance ratio is OK, but it is not recommended for beginners to get started directly, which may be a bit frustrating.
