That's a good point. Don't have 220v yet, and will need some work done before I can get a garage with that kind of power outlet. I just looked at HF's 120v welder and it seems to get decent reviews. Perhaps one of those and a warranty will help me get the job done. The price is definitely right.
Everybody has their own opinion, but the cheapest I'd go would be a 110V Hobart that can be converted to gas.

Maybe not this exact model, but something like it:

Yes, you can stick metal together in a number of ways but the very low end equipment can make it harder and uglier.
