Mark, I also have a Century, 200 220V. I love it. I've had it three years. I had it plugged in during a storm and fried a circuit board. Called Century, they diagnosed it over the phone and sent me a new one next day air. I called them and they talked me through the install all FREE!!! Yes, even the board (P.S. The welder was also two months out of warrantee and they knew it). I was impressed. I had a professional welder come over to do some intricate welding for me. All he noticed was that my welder was red and he thought it was a Lincoln. His exact words were "man this is a nice welder" Two week later he bought one for his shop.
My opinion: Century= Nice welder, great service Trooper Mark Weber wrote: > > I have a 110 volt Century. I hate it.
