Chelsea, sorry to hear about your experience. Can we suggest that you look at this MIG Welder Wire Feed Troubleshooting Guide. The cause of wire jamming will almost certainly be addressed in this article.

How likely would you be to recommend this product to a friend? (10 = very likely) = 8
Comments: Coming from a old school Mig, the machine with the computer control of weld via the synergic settings is taking some getting used to. I feel like just using program 0 so that I can set up as per original tech, but am persevering with the other setups. General quality seems to be good, but haven't used it much so can't say about longevity etc. The wire feed seems to be good quality and robust and was a factor that I considered in the purchase of the unit. The setting of the unit to restrict the machine to 200 A is a good feature, but perhaps it should be set on by default, as my machine powered up with the full 250A capacity and although I do have a 32 A feed, the supplied lead is only certified for 15A afaik.
