I have the Lincoln Mig pak 15 and I've been happy with it (after some inital problems with the feed)
works on 230 volt and is 30 to 175 amp.

Ok good its not a trap///lol
I have one too. Its very decent.
The gun/trigger is the same as the one in the SP175, the whole thing is similar. BUT it lacks in the highest heat settings that the normal ones have.
But they do come on sale at least once a month or so, so wait for the sale. I picked mine up for 550 or so.
Then got a bottle of C25 stargold and a regulator.
I have run .023 wire and .30 wire. The 30 wire is better IMOP with this welder. The .23 balls up on me at the feed spot. The 30 is more rigid. and if you weld it to the tip it's easy enough to clear, and doesn't jam at the feeder.
BUT for body metal the .023 wire is best.
