Okay, I took the plunge and tried this cheap plasma cutter. It was $195. I read all the reviews on Amazon, and found that about one in seven people thought that the unit was a POS, and the rest loved it. Before you buy this thing, you should think hard about what you are getting into. Here is the calculus that I used:
Yes, it’s cheap, so have a strategy if you choose to take a chance. My strategy was this: if I consistently use this, day after day, during the 30 day period that Amazon allows, and the machine screws up, Amazon’s wonderful return policy will make you whole again. If the machine stands up to frequent uses and restarts, it will probably last a very long time before anything breaks. If you buy this, use it right away and repeatedly, and if you get past the 30 days, you will probably be cool for a long time. If it breaks, send it back within Amazon’s return period.
All that being said, I love this thing at this point. I love working with metal, except for the cutting it part. This thing makes cutting metal fun! My wife complains about the smell of burning steel, but what can you do?
The directions are crap, but that is not unusual for something made out of pure Chinesium. I take those complaints and throw them in the trash, because I have dealt with this kind of import before.
Important points of information: I am using an old HF compressor with a 10 gallon tank and a 2 ½ hp motor, and it is fine, no problems at all. I have tried using it with a much smaller compressor for short cuts, and that works fine as well.
Some have complained about missing parts, specifically, the air hose between the regulator and the cutter, and the male plug for the outlet. Let’s be clear, this thing cost less than $200. I ordered the 220 V plug from Amazon when I bought the machine because I knew that it was required. I somehow missed that the short air hose was not included, but used a short piece of vinyl tubing I had lying around as a hold me over. This actually led to a funny situation: I knew that hose was rated for 55 PSI, and also knew that the rated pressure was actually less than one half of the test pressure for failure. I wanted to be able to run this thing up to 80 psi, so when I hooked it up at pressure and hit the switch, I was wearing full welding leathers and a face shield in case the hose exploded. It did not, and I have not exceeded 80 psi, but it is bad practice to run something so near its theoretical breaking point. When I got to a hardware store for other reasons, I bought 1 foot of vinyl tubing the next size up, WD 40’d the original hose, and slid over another layer, doubling the wall thickness. I think it is unlikely that this tube will ever explode, even if I crank the pressure over 100 psi. Seriously, a functional piece of tubing will cost less than $2, even if you start out with off a reel fiber-reinforced plastic tube.
Another common complaint is the gauge not reading in PSI. I don’t know what to tell you here, except that this is a really silly complaint. Because I have been a chemistry teacher, converting units does not faze me, but it really should not faze anyone else, either. I have attached a conversion chart that I made that you can print and tape to the side of your cutter, but it’s really not necessary. This is an analog gauge/regulator (and a cheap one, at that); forget the numbers, and set the thing between 12 and 1 o’clock (70-80 PSI), and don’t lose sleep because you are forced to use the filthy metric system!
I am mostly cutting sheet metal. 12 gauge (about 1/8 inch) cuts easily at a travel rate of about 1 in./s with the machine set at 40 A. The real delight is cutting 20 gauge (1 mm) at the same amperage, where you can easily do 1 ft./s, and should not go slow at that power with that thickness. An improvised rip fence is an absolute must!
So far, so good!
Update: I fabricated a guide that holds the cutting tip about one sixteenth of an inch from the workpiece, and has a flat surface to guide along the rip fence. Photos are enclosed of this, and cuts that I made to 20 gauge sheet metal, with each cut coverings 16 inches in the time it took me to think “one thousand and one” (1 second). Essentially a slow slashing action that left the sheet metal strips clanging to the floor. I had cranked the amps to maximum, and was running a pressure of about .60 MPa (~85 PSI). I did not clean, file, or in any way modifiy the cut surface, other than to give it a quick buzz with a drillbit wire brush. Pretty freaking cool!

Please don’t buy this plasma cutter. When I first purchased it I rated it 4 stars. I was initially pretty thrilled with the ability to cut plate. After using it for less than 1 month it will not cut or even spark. I have spent hours researching common problems with this unit and have found allot of other buyers trying to fix the unit. Bottom line- some resistors in the unit will blow out. The unit will turn on and the fan will work so you will think that it must be something you are doing wrong. That is not the case. To repair the unit you will have to tear it apart and find some tiny little diode that has burned out. I am a pretty mechanical guy but talk about frustrating.
So if you really want to buy one then send me a message and I will send you the one sitting in my shop that doesn’t work. I will sell it for a fraction of the cost new. That way when your new one brakes after a dozen times using it you won’t feel bad.
I was very skeptical. All my welding equipment is name brand stuff. Linde, Lincoln, and Miller. I almost hated buying this thing as I like to buy stuff made in the USA if I have a choice. Well, they left me no choice. There ar no American made plasma cutters for anywhere close to this price. I would have paid twice as much for an American made one. I bought it. Yes, some of the parts are cheaply made. The ground clamp and cable, the torch and torch lead. The lead has a cheesy almost plastic sheath around it. The air regulator and fitting are cheaply made and the gauge doesn't read psi. Now that being said, it all functions perfectly fine. It just doesn't look or feel like a well made quality part. The unit itself seems to be made better and is acceptable. I gave it 5 stars because for the price it's hard to complain. This thing cuts great. Consumables are cheap but they last much longer than expected. People made it sound like I would need to be replacing them every time I used it. I used the hell out of it before replacing anything. It cuts thin stuff great and thick just as good. 220v is a must in my opinion. Cuts better. I'm using between 60 and 70 psi. I drag the tip on the metal while cutting. 3/8" like nothing. Took me about 5 minutes to get it dialed in and my cutting technique mastered. I've never used a plasma cutter before. I've always used an oxyacetylene and am pretty good at it, so transitioning was possibly easier. No prep time, no adjusting the torch or heating everything up. No warping parts. Just turn it on and press the button! Cuts so fast the metal barely gets hot. You can pick it up after cutting without gloves half the time. Works great and buy it again! Time will tell with longevity. I will post back if I have any problems.

Wow. Ordered it. Received it the next day. Immediately unpacked it and put it to work. I'm impressed. I formerly owned a name brand (blue box) that cost me about six times as much and this little yellow box outworks it nine ways from Sunday. Reading other reviews, some people complained about its. It coming with an air hose or including a crappy air hose. No problem here. I snipped off a chunk of my reinforced 3/8" hose and was up and running in a matter of minutes. This machine has cut everything I've thrown at it including old railroad track. If you want the best deal on a great plasma cutter, this is it. When I was using my blue plasma cutter, I would need to stop and let my DeWalt air compressor catch up. I can cut all day with the Zeny and the compressor actually cycles off firing long cuts. Advice: order the consumables kit. Name brand consumables are pricey and I avoided replacing them when possible. These are very affordable and I don't dread tossing them, slamming new ones in and continuing to work. The ceramic cups are super fragile. I broke a couple before learning to be more careful, but haven't broken one since. I highly recommend this machine and will be buying other torches for automated work.
