you got a steal if you paid 200 bucks. They don't sell the 175 anymore, just the 180 to my knowledge...but the 175 used to sell for $675.00
I have a 175 I use for body repair and it is an excellent welder for the money.
A good MILLER is the best in my opinion but expensive. I have never used their smaller,cheaper stuff but have worked with their big stuff (3 phase delta weld 450) for years at work and I love em. Vey heavy duty.
