from my understanding, one of the main differences in miller and hobart is the infinite adjustable voltage, the hobart has 4 settings for voltage. my hobart has a miller whip and parts. no lie though, if i had the money i would have a miller over hobart but more for braggin rights than anything else.

My 220v. Hobart 187 has 7 settings......and you know it's really not very hard to look at the chart, set the 2 little knobs and start welding. Bragging rights are good to an extent, just not worth $450.

I have a Clarke 180, it's a decent machine. I'm gonna upgrade to a Lincoln with the infinite heat settings. The Clarke has selectable settings, works ok, but doesn't give the best control.
