Your choice at the end of the day. It is not just the welder that does the job, you have to have skill, patience, experience and/ or varying combinations of all three. Go here for more info.

Myself personally have a 150Amp MIG using gas. I personally would only use gasless for building garden gates. If I was to buy a new one I would get a 170Amp. That is only my opinion and feeling based on my panel experience.
