The hobart handler 135 is a miller 135, the Hobart is made by miller, it's marketing. We have both, and they are both excellent for sheet metal work. I just paid 800 for a miller, and the hobart is 450 at tractor supply.....i shoulda shopped a litte more.
I will say this, parts are a big deal, if ya break and need parts, ya better get a brand name, I just went through the ordeal with a snap-on plasma cutter. Made by century i think, i paid 1400 for the thing, went out of warranty, and repairs are 1100, cuz it's not a miller or lincoln.....expensive lesson on my part. I will never buy any kinda of weld/cutting tool ever again that isn't a miller or lincoln, no matter how cheap.
