Hobart 140

I am wondering if anyone has opinions about Hobart welders, particularly the 140? I am looking for a decent mig to do some body work and minor fabrication stuff with and the Hobart seems like a good buy at $499. Most of the reviews online are good but I thought I'd ask around to see if anyone has heard anything negative.

Some of the Hobart 140 specs.

Welds 24 ga. up to 1/4 in. mild steel in a single pass
Operates off 115V household current
4 voltage settings for precise set-up
30 to 140 output amperage
Duty cycle - 20% at 90 amps
Dual groove, quick change drive roll
Self-resetting thermal overload system protection
Built-in contactor eases use and is an excellent safety feature which makes wire electrically "cold" when not welding
Manufacturers limited warranty
