ESAB Rebel EMP 215ic
May 13, 2020
This by far is the best welder I have ever owned. I had never heard of ESAB before and did my research before buying it and boy was I glad I made this investment. Things are so so well in the shop I am purchasing 3 more units. This time I might get the bigger units either the 235ic or 285ic because we go through welding wire like crazy and 11lb. spools last us only 2 days....
Pros
  • Comes with all the accessories you need
  • Mig Gun - 0.23-.035 drive rolls, extra inlet & outlet wire guides, sample roll of welding wire
  • Tig Torch - with accessories kit, different size tungstens, collets and collet bodies
  • Electrode Holder - sample pack of ESAB 7018 electrodes
  • Ground Clamp, Victor Regulator and Power Adapter from 230v to 120v
Cons
  • Only one solenoid, I wish it had two! It can be a pain sometimes having to switch bottles... but you will get used to it eventually!

Worst long term purchase we've made in 10 years of buying welding machines
December 12, 2019
We have a fab shop with around 5-8 welding machines running non stop. We liked this machine because of the versatility and it just seems like a cool setup and a reasonable deal. Got the machine about a year ago, worked great for 2 months. Apparently it has a common issue with the gas solenoid going out a few months into use- look it up, its a very common thing on this model. So we sent it to ESAB repair tech, they kept our machine FOR 3 MONTHS!! By the time we received it, it had spent more time in a repair shop than in our shop. So then we use the machine (but a little timidly) for another few months, oh but guess what... Now the motherboard is not allowing the mig to work. Taking the MIG gun apart to change the trigger is an hour long ordeal, and you need an extra hand, vs a miller/Hobart or Lincoln is a 5 min ordeal that anyone could do. Basically, if you want to use this for stick welding only, go for it, but it's super expensive for that, other companies have better deals for stick welders. We actually have several small tig/stick esab welders, they are great, but not anything on their MIG side. Don't buy it.
Pros
  • Good concept
Cons
  • Bad parts, overly complicated intervals, horrible service from ESAB

Excellent so far, tig torch a bit bulky for tight areas but otherwise runs good. Mig gun changed out so I can't comment, but looked decent enough. Overall very pleased... so far

Good welder

I've tried all the processes on this welder and they all work great. There was only one complaint I had with this welder. The tweco tig torch it is huge and very awkward to use. I figured out that I could remove the handle and shorten it and rotate it. I cut the handle down by about 2" and rotated the handle around so the button is on the other side. It is a lot better to use.

Good Little Machine!!!
October 15, 2019
So far I've used it to repair a disc for a plow. Smart Mig feature seems to work very nicely! Easy to figure out controls!
Pros
  • Smart Mig feature is nice!! Nice Compact machine! Like the features on it! Love the rebate and helmet offer!!
Cons
  • Chinese made! The regulator seemed kind of cheap but seems to work like its supposed to! Quality in parts seems like it could be better but no problems so far!

Esab Rebel EMP 215ic Been Great!
September 5, 2019
The Unit arrived on the day they said it would and everything was packed well. The start up of the Esab Rebel 215ic was quick and easy. The unit has performed well and there has been no problems with it either. The only problem is not with the welder, it is waiting for the rebate been approve and when the Gift Card will be mail (waiting 7 weeks so far.)

Worked for 2 months, tech support yet to work
August 6, 2019
Bought this machine 2 months ago. It worked well, despite parts of it being cheaply made, such as the plug and ground cable, and the wire gun jamming up about every other time you try to run flux core through it. But then this machine just quit. The screen went blank and the whole thing was flashing and clicking. ESAB seemed to handle it well at first, and said my warranty replacement would be here yesterday. What a relief. Then it doesn't show. Spoke to them again yesterday and they assured me it would arrive today. Nothing. I called to speak with the guy I had spoken with last week but at 10 til 5 he was already gone for the day, and the other guys I spoke with were not far behind and couldn't be bothered. I guess they were ready to get off work. I've been off for 2 days now because the tool I bought to do my job broke after a couple months. I'll be off tomorrow to wait on my welder. The point is that this machine and the inept staff at ESAB have already cost me more than what I spent on this piece of junk. Do yourself a favor and spend a bit more and buy a Miller.
Pros
  • Plenty of handles for carrying.
Cons
  • Everything else.

Nice Multi-Process Welder
April 8, 2019
I hadn't stick welded in quite a while and had never mig welded, so I wanted a multi-purpose machine to re-learn stick and learn mig welding. The stick welding has been excellent on both 120 and 240v. The first few practice beads went very well, considering I hadn't done it for so long. Have used 3/32" and 1/8" 6010, 6013 and 7018 and they all run fine. So far I have been able to do some long awaited repairs on some broken tractor gear, as well as add a couple of weld on hooks to my tractor bucket. Runs great off my 7000 watt generator. I don't have any gas yet, but bought some flux core wire and started practicing. Have even done a couple of small repair jobs. Don't know if it's just me, but the flux core mode seems to run better off 240. For the flux core welding I got a couple of nozzles designed specifically for this process and they are well worth the $12. Haven't tried the tig yet, so can't comment on that. Cyberweld provides good service, got a nice discount using the Chee$e Bonu$ option and delivery was prompt. Will definitely do business with them again.
Pros
  • Nicely made machine. Very good fit and finish.
  • Welding leads and mig gun are of good quality (Haven't used the tig torch yet, but looks good)
  • Menu layout is easy to follow
  • Easy setup for each process
  • Burns pretty much any rod you want to use
  • I like all the handles, for carrying and protection
  • Very portable. Could take anywhere.
Cons
  • None so far

Great deal
November 22, 2018
I haven't used the machine yet and I'm not a professional welder. I've welded mainly FCAW and O/A. Anyways without trying the machine I can say from the build quality and features that this machine will probably lay out some decent weld of course a skilled operator is a must for any machine. I can say that of the cost of the package atleast 80% maybe 85% went into the machine the rest in the accessories and packaging. I was not thrilled with the 14 gauge power cord. Personally I would have used 10. 14 is fine because of the duty cycle I know, but I would rather up the cable size. There aren't really any benefits other than conceived quality which is why esab chose a thick insulation for the 14 gauge power cord. The ground cable to pick polarity I would have picked something better than a 4 gauge. I would have done a 2 gauge. The ground cable I would have wanted a 1/0 or 0. Having made battery cables for vehicles I can say the ground is the most important leg of a circuit and when I design or repair I always size my ground larger than my supply. The ground clamp is okay, not the best but it will do the job. Just have clean metal to clamp to. The stinger is what it is. A clamp with a cable. That cable needs to be secured by means other than the copper. Same for the ground. They should at least take the crimp and put a lined heat shrink over it to act as a strain relief. The dinse connectors look to be sintered. I would have wanted machine copper or machine copper with a silver plating (big money there). I haven't opened the machine (warranty reasons). But I looked at the schematics in the service manual and it's a pretty good design. Very easy for esab to add more functionality. Simple design. For the wire feed mechanism I would have tried an optowheel to measure the true rotational speed then used that with the circumference of the drive roller to make an accurate wfs rather than have a calibration pot and work by average. Esab has a current monitor after all it's a cc/cv, few more bucks and you could have had a perfect feed mechanism, but what esab did was fine. It's efficient. The mig gun is okay. No real complaints there, the tig gun is bulky and the valve on the gun is a 50/50 deal. It's a plus because I could get my pre and post flows how I want more control, but it's a minus because I have to buy a tig gun that has a valve on it or add one. So yeah would been nice to have that gas valve on the machine feed a tig gun like the 235 does. The consumables pack is no different than any other brand welder. The regulator is fine, not the best unit but again efficient does the job. The hose was 6ft long yet some advertising says it should be 12 some says 6. 12 would be nice but most people are putting these on a cart so 6 makes sense. A big plus was the aristorod that came with the machine nice elf spool. Oh bout the mig gun. Some spare nozzles would have been nice also instead of telling us that we need a separated liner and tip for 0.023, just include it is what I would have wanted to see. Now overall I give the machine 5 stars. Why? Because it's $1699 bucks or less. It's a great package that as is will probably put out great welds provided the operator knows what they're doing. I realize that everything as it is works and works well. I realize I have very high expectations and provided I had the money would also buy that higher level machine, but it's not necessary. So for the money you will get a great power source will "decent" entry level accessories that will do the job. The ground cable and stinger is not far from any other brand. The tweco mig gun is common. The toy torch isn't great at all, but it will function and that's what matters. I love the package and look forward to using it. ESAB is a good company and hopefully is commuted to the customer and improving the products they sell. Always room for improvement no matter who or what. Great price, very respectable no frills warranty. I'm waiting on the burn earn rebate to pickup a esab welding jacket etc. I give cyberweld 5 stars. They shipped it out next business day. I had it the following day. They have great customer support. So yes I'm very satisfied. For 1699 money well spent. Accessories are consumables in the long run anyways. It's well "engineered" does the job well while keeping with the bottom line (low cost that works). Love the welder though. Nice packaging and provided literature is good and clear. Things to note is comes with spare contact tips, drive rollers, mug gun o-rings, thickness gauge, and the wire feed alignment tip. Speaking of which it's a good design to prevent birdnesting.

Good machine, components could use improvement
October 22, 2018
The overall quality of the machine is great, very sturdy and durable. Love the screen. Adjustment knobs feel a little cheap in my opinion. Wire drive system is decent, could use some better quality material aka all metal adjustment knobs ect. Main thing I'm disappointed on with this machine was the components it came with. The stick electrode holder is one of the cheapest looking ones I've seen. I previously bought the same ESAB mini arc 161 & that thing had a better electrode holder.. the mig gun is okay.. only part I don't like is that the contact tip does not screw it, you have to have the nozzle on in order to keep the tip in place. The tig torch was probably the best out of the 3 components, nice long leads, button and amperage adjustment knob feels solid. Overall this is a good starter machine with plenty of power. I would buy this machine again for the same price if it had better components otherwise as is I believe $1100-1200 would be a better price.
Pros
  • Plenty of power
  • Durable
  • Lightweight
Cons
  • Bad quality welding components
  • Flimsy adjustment knobs

This is just used for home use and repairs. I didn't buy it at Cyberwelds,. I went in the store to fill a bottle and saw it on display. I was very impressed with the looks and quality of the build. Now l need to sell my Lincoln easy mig 140 this thing blows it away. I've been looking for a cheap tig for a while and at this price getting all three and dual voltage, who could ask for anything more. I have only used it on 110 and it works fantastic for the price paid. It is hands down smoother operating than my little Lincoln. The tig works great and I'm kind of getting use to the hand control. I'm on this site looking to get the foot control but anyone that's never Tigged before should be fine with the gun that came with it. I'm expecially pleased that it came with the hand control tig because it is going to be very handy doing work under a car or truck or any other confined space.. good job ESAB let's just hope it holds up for years to come.
Pros
  • Great price
  • Great build quality
  • Great rugged modern looks
Cons
  • None if l wanted something more l would not have purchased it.

January 19, 2018
Ordered this and received it a week later. Used it a few times now since getting and gosh it blows my old miller and chinese eastwood out of the water! Tried out the sMIG and right out of the box it made a beautiful arc and crackle! Decided to pull the gun away and see how well sMIG kept up and I was able to pull pretty far before the arc started to miss! Worth every stinkin' penny! Here's the real kicker, these guys are so determined to make sure you have a manual for the machine that not only is one included built into the software itself, but you also get a paper version, AND a USB version!
Pros
  • sMIG!!!!!!
  • Comes with tig and stick equipment
  • Easy to read interface
  • Rugged
Cons
  • The provided tweco mig gun isn't the greatest but it works

This welder replaces a larger power CC/CV source and wire feeder that were stolen in a burglary of my shop. It will handle most of what I need and is small enough I can take it with me and not leave it in the shop. It runs great. Cyberweld shipping and service was very good as advertised.

October 10, 2017
Okay let me start by saying I'm a rookie welder.... This is my first machine and I spent months doing my homework before I ultimately bought this one. So far all I've done is some flux core on some 1/8 inch steel using 110. All I have to say is you will not be disappointed with this welder, I can't get over the build quality of the machine these guys made a beautiful piece of equipment that makes me, a beginner look like I know what I'm doing. I was looking at the Miller Multimatic 215, Everlast 211si, and the Lincoln 210mp and went with the ESAB and I cannot begin to tell you how happy I am. The tech support is fantastic, I had some newbie questions and they were answered immediately. And let's not forget Cyberweld, they are fantastic as well great costumer service top notch company.

Love this machine! The fit and finish is amazing, you can literally feel the build quality when you pick it up. All the accessories that come with the machine are top notch. The rig torch is a bit cumbersome but I also prefer the use the pencil style torches. But one of the things I was really impressed with was the fact I was able to plug it in to 110 right out of the box and run 6010 rod on 12 gauge steel without blowing through and without any trouble getting the rod to fire off at low power

Mig works every bit as good as a lincoln 255 although may not do 1/2" as well. What amazed me was how well it welded and penetrated on 110 volt. Ive had the miller 211 with autoset for a few years and the 110 is worthless with anything except sheet metal. This little esab just blew right in to 1/4" on 110 and welded beautifully. Tried the stick and once again amazed. Reminded me of running the old 3 phase millers just a smooth consistent arc. The tig can be set up to be very user friendly as well real nice for smaller finish products where you're looking for that row of dimes look. Far as the duty cycle esab ranks their duty cycle at the highest amps the welder can put out where a lot of other companies will say for example 60 percent at 150 amps even tho max output may be 180 amps therefore the true duty cycle may honestly be around 30....just somthing to consider
Pros
  • half the weight and twice the power of most machines

March 29, 2017
Been using a Ranger 8 linked to a LN 25 wire feeder with gas for 17 years great rig but too much for thin sheet metal. This machine does sheet metal and dose a excellent job. 1/4 A36 HR is thickest I have done so far. As for DC Stick, it works great. I built a welding cart on the first day. Photo below. Planning to get with CyberWeld for a spool gun.
Pros
  • Compact and powerful
  • High tech and simple
Cons
  • NADA
