Anyone heard of Prima welders?

Hi,

Just joined this forum.

Looking to add to the welder collection (of one). I'm considering buying a Prima Multi 190 Inverter Welder. It has MIG, MAG, TIG, MMA and FLUX capability and is made in Italy. Does anyone have any experience with this brand - Prima? I cannot find any reviews on it - this makes me suspicious of this brand...

That machine does not look like the generic imported stuff. Prima seems to be a genuine Italian company, listed on this business website:

Google streetview confirms that the company does exist at that address.

Hey thanks for investigating the company, Eddie.

I didn't come across that site in my search. It may be a good welder - seems to have good heritage.

Has anyone here used a PRIMA welder?

Cheers
