I would HIGHLY recommend a Stickmate, the Hobart welder.
Its like a Miller Thunderbolt but it costs less and puts out 5 more amps.
I know a lot of people like AC/225s, and while Ive never used the AC/DC version, I can say that on paper the Hobart is still a MUCH better machine. Higher amperage, higher duty cycle, infinite adjustment (big deal), and I believe a better warranty.
I bought one in early 2011 and beat the crap out of it, still have it. Its an exceptionally good machine, welds like a dream on DC and welds worlds better than my AC/225 on the AC side.
Here are a couple videos of my experiences, first is my going to buy my stickmate, then is a review after I'd had it for a while.
