Good products. Even better Service.

Easy to talk to great knowledge and service

Great products, just ran their AC TIG smart set program and you can tell it's well made. Although I have yet to put it through it's paces on the field I appreciate the tough plastic handle roll cage around the machine to help protect my investment.

Excellent product and unreal customer service

When I purchased the goods the manual that came with it was actually well thought out and designed and everything is very clear with diagrams and simple to understand instructions.

I asked about the new digital screens as I'm a bit dubious seeming as I'm a bit of an old timer... They showed me how it works on their website page and since purchasing one it has been really easy to use. Very happy and I would recommend this setup to others.

I’ve had my welder for over 10 years working out here in the bush and it started playing up.

Jumped on their live chat, and after explaining the issues and my situation, it came down to an issue with my circuit breakers, who knew a 30 year old house could cause issues! Got a sparky round and gave them the solution UNIMIG gave me and she was up and running in no time.

Proper service.

The UNIMIG 185 Viper is extremely easy to set up using the how-to material and video instructions available online. I will predominantly be MIG welding with gasless flux-core wire for home handyman applications. It is perfect for my requirements and allows me the flexibility to employ Stick and TIG where required.

I've used Unimig equipment for years, never let me down. Support is always fast and helpful, would recommend.

Super quick and helpful support

I’ve been running the UNIMIG ENVY Multi 195 in my home workshop for a while now and honestly couldn’t be happier with it. For what I do, it’s pretty much the perfect machine. I do a lot of work on cars, so I needed something versatile but still practical in a home garage setup, and this fits the bill perfectly.

The first thing that stood out was how easy it is to use. The touchscreen and overall interface are super user friendly. Everything’s laid out clearly and it doesn’t take long to dial settings in or switch processes. When you’re bouncing between different jobs on a car, that simplicity saves a lot of time.

Most of my work is panel repairs, exhaust work, brackets and general fab, and the machine has been really consistent across the board. The arc is stable, welds come out clean, and the synergic settings help a lot on thinner automotive steel where you don’t want to risk blowing through. It just makes life easier.

Having MIG and DC TIG in the one unit is also a big plus. I mainly use MIG for automotive work, but it’s nice having TIG there for cleaner or more detailed jobs when needed.

Another big win for a home workshop is that it runs on a standard 10A plug. No special wiring required, but it’s still got plenty of power for car work and light fabrication.

Overall, it’s smart, consistent and really well suited to a home garage, especially if you’re working on cars like I am. Would recommend it without hesitation.

I believe in buying Australian made . Plus as a product it is top of the line. No reason to look at other brands.
Price wise very competitive as options

My mig is about 15 yo now with only half a roll of wire put through it. Im too afraid to use it as it will end up back getting repaired. I was told circuit boards were getting low so maybe none left now. Recently i tried to set it up for tig welding. Another disappointing experience. Unimig had difficulties recommending the correct torch. After purchasing 3 torchs i finally have one that works. I had to buy a backup, an ancient 180a unit for $100. This is my main use welder as it just keeps on performing. My unimig cost me $1,400 back then. Severely disappointed.

I paid $499 for a BossWeld MST185 (Tig torch not included and DC TIG only) and got spare tips, liner for the MIG torch to handle Steel MIG wire and got spare 0.8mm and 0.9mm contact tips.

Wanted to upgrade to AD/DC TIG to weld Aluminium.

Did some looking around and found Unimig.

Watched all the advertising etc and the Envy 230 looked like a good model. So thought would bite the bullet, even if I was just going to use for home stuff, and to upgrade the BossWeld.

Going from a $500 welder to a $3000 welder, I couldn't wait !

Living to regret this now.

I paid $3000 ($2999) for an Envy 230.

Mig torch came with a "universal starter liner" that apparently not too good to use continually (Long Term) with steel MIG wire or Aluminium and recommended to change for the Aluminium or Steel liner. It's a "starter" liner.

So I purchased the Aluminum liner to only find out it didn't come with the required "spring" and had to go back to the supplier again to purchase the additional part (Which "should" be supplied with the liner in my opinion and the same consensus from the retailer ). I know they will probably say the next liner can re-use the spring, but wouldn't you be better replacing both ? If the Teflon is worn out, surely you should also change the spring ?

The only contact tip supplied and fitted was for Aluminum.

Unimig's feed back was supplying extra tips would "add cost". For $3000, I would have expected them to supply at least one of each size and at least supply a tip not for Aluminium since I would guess, people would be buying a combo welder with TIG to use with Aluminium and most likely are using Stick or MIG before "upgrading" to this model ? I mean how much are the tips ? Their cost probably less than $1 each ?

I mean at least supply one or two 0.8mm, 0.9mm contact tips and a contact tip holder, gas diffuser and one spare nozzle in a plastic baggie ?

What's that cost them ? $5 ?

They supply a Steel liner. Great ! But how about some tips to go with that liner in the box ?

I have a couple of dozen M6 tips for the BossWeld in all types (0.8mm, 0.9mm Steel. 1mm, 1.2mm Al). The torch supplied used M8. So no go there.

For $3000, they supply a radioactive Thoriated Tungsten(Red), 2.5mm. Thoriated Tungsten is always something I wanted to steer clear of.

They could have supplied Lanthanated or Rare Earth Tungstens for the $3000 price tag.

Must be trying to get rid of their Thoriated Tungstens (Being sceptical here :)

Could have at least supplied a short back for the Tungsten. Maybe pushing my luck on this suggestion. But alas, NO. An extra $19 purchase.

I really would expect more accessories included in the box so I could use the welder out of the box on FluxCore or solid wire and not had to pay out an additional $425+ for parts so I could start using this thing as I was expecting, out of the box for $3000.

MIG Starter Kit - $99
TIG Starter Kit - $166
Aluminium liner $26
Additional spring $16
1.6mm Tungsten (Lanthenated) $38
2.4mm Tungsten (Lanthenated) $79

I think it's like McDonald's.

Instead of "Would you like fries with this", they are "Would you like to buy our Mig and Tig kits" to give you what you might need for a $3000 Welder, some parts of which should be included, so we can make even more money out of you ? At least $5 worth of consumables ?

Two weeks of having to buy extras to use this thing and now just about to test to see if it works on the weekend.

The BossWeld was up and running, right out of the box with all the extras and even included a small roll of fluxcore wire (I have not even used it all after 5 years) ! This $3000 Welder ? Zip. Nada.

Really disappointed with this purchase from day one.

Wish I could return, but too many trips buying needed parts not supplied in the box. In for the penny. In for the pound now, but.....Now the dealer says I should get a pedal for this to get full TIG use with variable current.

Now I have to fork out ANOTHER $400+ for a pedal wired or wireless ? Pedals come with most brands sold in the USA as far as I can see in order to do variable amperage TIG.

This is a bridge too far for me.

Disappointment from day one.

Suggest you really do your research before buying Unimig to compare the value of what's included. They don't even list what is included in the PDF manual and which liner is installed or the contact tip (For Aluminium).

I am going to sell all this, after testing to make sure it at least works, for $2500 on Gumtree and take a $1000 loss just to hopefully get rid of it quick, because every time I look at this expensive Welder, I feel like such an idiot and feel nauseous even looking at this thing.

Excitement to disappointed as soon as I unboxed.

BossWeld A+++ Great Value

Unimig D- Value sucks. If it works as advertised, might change to a C.
Didn't give an E since at least their online chat support and emails were good. That's the only positive experience I have had so far with this brand.
