Sounds like a nice mig! Mine was damn expensive but then it's got that name on it that adds a few hundred to the price tag, think the cebora equivalent was around £800 though.
It's why it took me so long to find a generator that I was happy to run my mig off, no Chinese shit for me!! Honda engine or nothing.

Mig arrived. Its like welding with butter. Love it
Done a wheel arch repair to test it out. Used the old front wing
As a doner for the patch. New front end shoved on to. Also

So
Fuel tank had been removed for welding purposes
Looks like its a new pattern part. Said "made in Canada"
And would have bare metal when fitted so its covered in
Surface rust. A good sand and some red oxide was then applied.
Tacked and smoothed out the extra holes tgat had been
Drilled in the rear and pluged up the indentations from
Where I drilled off the spot welds on the wheel arch trims.
Bumper gap panel was rusting on one side as was the mud
Flap brackets so these have been trimmed away too. Ill fab
Some different flap brackets at some point.
