Welding Equipment Customer Reviews

Don't just take our word for it! This is just a small selection of some of the feedback we get from people who buy our equipment. More reasons to choose R-Tech...

Date: May 8th 2013 Name: Bob Pugh Purchased: TIG Welder TIG201
"Just a note to say thanks for the ultra-prompt delivery. Ordered 2:30 7th May on my doorstep 10:30 8th May. Excellent service, thanks to all concerned. Gas cylinder arriving Friday, so plenty of time to unpack and setup the trolly etc. "

Date: April 15th 2013 Name: Daniel Brown Purchased: TIG Welder TIG210P
" I was in need of a new AC/DC tig welder a year or so ago to primarily weld stainless steel but also wanted the capability to weld aluminium. At the same time I needed an updated arc welder to use specialist DC compatible electrodes. After looking at many Tig welders I settled on the Digital Series 210A ACDC which did all of this plus much more and have not looked back since. Fantastic welder and one of the most stable arcs in Tig welding I have ever welded with. Customer service and advice was second to none, absolutely fantastic. I had not done a lot of AC Tig welding but soon had the machine setup after a call to the technical team. The MMA welding on this machine is also excellent, I use this as much as the Tig mode. Any piece of equipment you buy from these guys you won't go far wrong with it, Thanks again. "

Date: March 26th 2013 Name: Martin Rubenstein Purchased: TIG Welder TIG210P
"Thank you so much for the repair of my TIG210P and for the phone call following its repair. It's so good to have it back home; if Sue Lawley ever asks me which luxury I'd take to the desert island, I'd say my R-Tech TIG 210. "

Date: March 25th 2013 Name: Howard Brooker Purchased: TIG Welder TIG161
"Bought a 160A R-Tech AC/DC TIG as had some specialist ally bodywork to sort.... can't say I was over confident. After some teething problems which were all due to welder's difficulty transferring DC skills to AC it all worked out incredibly well. All operator teething problems were dealt with magnificently by R-Tech who 'did what it took' to ensure their product performed and was able to complete the job 100%. Can't recommend enough! Can happily weld 1mm ally now."

"First rate service, excellent value for money. I've been in the the motor trade for over 20 years and it is so nice to find a company that really delivers in every way. Well done R-Tech it's been a real pleasure dealing with you and look forward to dealing with you in the future.."

Date: February 25th 2013 Name: Ash Walters Purchased: Plasma Cutter P30C
"Recently I purchased an IMIG160 MIG welder and a P30C Plasma Cutter. I have used it now on every type of job application; a good quality machine for a very reasonable price; very pleased with the setup. The P30C is also an excellent machine - smooth in its operation; a fantastic bit of kit and again simple to set up. It has given excellent result. I found R-0Tech to be an excellent company to deal with; very competitive priced machines and quality items. I found their after sales service excellent and responded quickly to my after sales questions."

Date: February 17th 2013 Name: David Chapman Purchased: Plasma Cutter P40HF

"1st class service; product exactly as described."

Date: January 31st 2013 Name: Melvin Jones Purchased: Plasma Cutter P40HF
"Have used my P40HF with great results but was disappointed when I got it out of the box to find it was not operating correctly, the original supplier was not forthcoming with any assistance, except the phone no for R-Tech which I promptly phoned. The service I received was second to none - even though my warranty was out by several months" they replaced the torch head FOC, this did not rectify the problem so they arranged a pickup for me then promptly repaired the machine and returned it 48 hrs later; a nominal charge was made as agreed and a warranty of 3 months. I am delighted with the service I received from all the staff especially Dylan, and Daz. Thanks for an outstanding service"

Date: January 9th 2013 Name: Nigel McDermott Purchased: Assorted
"Has to be best welding supplier, I have ever dealt with to date. Great, no hassle purchases; rapid delivery. Machines are unbelievable cost effective and low priced, without compromising quality, and reliability. Really don't know how R-Tech does this. + Staff are always polite and professional."

Date: January 8th 2013 Name: Paul Aspden Purchased: Assorted
"R-Tech, in my opinion, are amongst the best firms to deal with. They know their products and give good advice. Most of the other firms I have dealt with, for my welding kit in the past, could learn a lot from R-Tech's approach to their customers. Thanks R-Tech for all your help and advice."

Date: January 7th 2013 Name: Nicholas Willcocks Purchased: Plasma Cutter P40HF
"I can't imagine how I have survived without this plasma cutter, it is everything you claim and a fantastic and simple piece of kit; welcome to the days of cutting metal like a hot knife through butter. Internet purchases rarely live up to claims made, what a fantastic exception your company is. Thank you for your excellent sales, service and advice and more importantly for an excellent product. I am happy for you to use my name as a contact if you have any one thinking of buying this product who wants to speak to a third party user."

Date: December 19th 2012 Name: Kurt Bauwens Purchased: TIG201 TIG Welder
"Thank you for your swift dispatch of my new TIG201 welder. Despite it being described as shop soiled I have yet to find the "damage". Thank you also for you call to let me know about the short delay in the dispatch of my subsequent web order. Much appreciated."

Date: December 14th 2012 Name: George Bradshaw Purchased: Assorted
"I would just like to take the time to give a bit of praise to an excellent company who truly do stick to their word. I have purchased several machines from R TECH that are in daily use.. a P60HF plasma cutter, a C-MIG315 and a TIG 201AC/DC I have also purchased a P30 plasma which I upgraded after speaking to Dylan and they gave me a really fair trade in price against the P60.

Also the first P60 that arrived had been dropped by the courier and therefore didn't work... No worries, one easy phone call to Dylan and there was a brand new one there the next morning! (before they had even collected the broken one) Truly fantastic service, and very keen pricing! I cannot recommend R-Tech highly enough! "

"This is my 3rd purchase from you and have had no problems whatsoever. Very good communication and fast delivery along with good prices.."

Date: November 4th 2012 Name: Graham Le Marchand Purchased: Plasma Cutter P40HF
"Absolutely impressed by everything about this company. Delivered on time and any queries I had were dealt with efficiently. Nothing was too much trouble for the support staff. Excellent quality and design. Two year guarantee emphasises their commitment to quality."

Date: October 30th 2012 Name: Richard Purchased: TIG Welder TIG251 AC/DC
"I recently bought 25o Amp TIG welder from R-Tech and the high level of customer care services from buying ,delivery and after-sales is brilliant. Internet shopping has been the perfect heaven for fraudsters, but your company have reeled it back with honesty,a real face to talk to. The welder is reasonably priced and has performed just as it written in the specs. I strongly believe if any electronic part failed you have the expertise to diagnose and fix it, something so lacking in most after sale services today. Keep up the good work,  I will be back"

Date: October 10th 2012 Name: John Lambert Purchased: Plasma Cutter P30C
"Ordered a 30 amp Plasma Cutter and I am delighted with the quality, capability and build of the set. The service provided by R-Tech is first class and they are geared to customer service. The equipment is very competitively priced with a warranty and I would not hesitate to order from them again which I will in shortly as I am about to buy an AC/DC TIG set."

Date: October 8th 2012 Name: Brian Fitzpatrick Purchased: Assorted
"Very impressed with products and service from R-Tech. I only wish more companies had the same level of after sales service as R-Tech. Thank you"

"Excellent first class company. Products, service and customer satisfaction, a rare quality from suppliers theses days but R-Tech welding tick all the boxes."

Date: September 24th 2012 Name: Rob Southern Purchased: TIG161 TIG Welder
"I bought the TIG161 from R-Tech as the welder has a massive spec for the money, I went for the starter kit which is superb. What I never bargained on was the fantastic service. Dylan was superb and sorted me out with a great package, Extremely helpful and what is so rare these days! Five Star Service. Ill be buying my consumables from R-Tech no doubt what so ever!"

Date: September 19th 2012 Name: John Saunders Purchased: TIG201 TIG Welder
"The 200 amp welder for my friend in Spain is now in use , and he reports it as perfect. He is an aircraft-grade welder for 30 years and says its the best welder he has used on alloy. Many thanks for your help"

Date: September 16th 2012 Name: Clare Parry Purchased: Assorted
"I have found that the service, product quality, technical advice absolutely brilliant. I have purchased a plasma cutter and compressor recently, both delivered the next day and both work very well. The technical support from R-Tech has been excellent, I was even couriered a part that I mislaid, the next day at no charge!- thank you very much."

Date: September 13th 2012 Name: Garry Leiper Purchased: TIG Welder TIG161
"I ordered a TIG161 package that was shop soiled just after 4pm 03/09/2012 after getting some advice on the phone from Joe. It arrived before 11 am the next day. I also bought a Hawk Vision Welding Mask (Pro Foot Pedal was included in the price) and I have to say both the service and the equipment were both excellent .

The welder is at least as good (if not better) than the Fronius I use at work and that cost £2500 (the TIG161 was under £800 all in). I would not hesitate to recommend R-Tech to anyone; all equipment was solid, quality stuff and for it being shop soiled, well, I cant find a mark on it! I have been teaching my son to weld with it and he is getting a nice silver blue yellow weld after 2 days; absolutely spot on. I hope to use R-Tech again soon, thanks again for an excellent welder and service"

Date: August 27th 2012 Name: Richard Dover Purchased: TIG251 TIG Welder

Date: August 22nd 2012 Name: Will Smith Purchased: TIG251 TIG Welder
"Would like to say a big thank you to the team at R-Tech, I have one of your 251 AC/DC TIG welders; a fault happened with the machine, one phone call later and it was collected the next day and returned within the week; fully fixed and serviced - all free of charge, and on a machine that is nearly 2 years old!

Date: July 15th 2012 Name: Sean O'Connor Purchased: TIG161 TIG Welder
"Read a lot about R-Tech welders and plasma's and watched the progress for quite a while, a lot of people on diy migwelding forum have started to pick up on them and realize what excellent vfm these machines are, coupled together with the legendary customer service from R-Tech, and the excellent help and advice from Dylan and all the tech people it makes it an absolute no brainer buying from R-Tech, why would anyone buy a Chinese bang box when they have the option of buying something tried, tested and proven to give good service, and delivery....well next day...how many companies can match that, all round excellence from Rob White and his crew"

Date: July 11th 2012 Name: Simon Rogers Purchased: TIG161 TIG Welder
"Great service. Welder and consumables ordered at 5 pm on a Monday, despatched the following day and with me by mid morning on the Wednesday. Everything as requested. The gentleman I spoke to could not have been more helpful. I've yet to try the welder, but have no doubts it will more than meet my needs. No need to look anywhere else"

Date: July 2nd 2012 Name: Dave Kenward Purchased: TIG161 TIG Welder
"Bought one of your 160 AC/DC TIG's a few weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised at how good it is. It does an excellent job on Stick and TIG. I was prepared for a slightly lacklustre performance, as is often found with single phase machines, but this does the job like any three phase I have used. I would happily recommend one of this range of welders to anyone. It's not used commercially, but I think it would cope with light industrial use perfectly well. All in all an excellent purchase."

Date: June 26th 2012 Name: Nick Jackson Purchased: P40HF Plasma Cutter
"If you think you know of better service - try this! Purchased P40 Plasma cutter in Dec 2008, left it in box until Nov 2011, operate for a few months and then stops cutting with arcing smell from inside case. Return unit for repair in spring of 2012. Unit comes back to me with new PCB, water removed (oops) and new tip. And the punch line - no charge!!! Beat that !!!"

Date: June 22nd 2012 Name: Ryan Smith Purchased: TIG161 TIG Welder
"Bought an AC/DC 161 TIG welder and I am very pleased with it. I used this welder when I worked for Morgan Motor Company Ltd and now I have set up on my own have purchased on myself. The customer-service on the phone has been outstanding and I had a technical question to which someone rang me back within 5 minutes with the answer. I ordered my machine at 10:30 in the morning and it was with me at 10am the next morning, less than 24 hours!! I am very happy with my purchase and will recommend to others in the future. ."

Date: June 6th 2012 Name: Simon Sennitt Purchased: TIG201 TIG Welder
"I would like to thank you very much for repairing our TIG welder. It is great to deal with a company that supports its customers so well. I will not hesitate to recommend you to other staff and students within the University's Engineering Department. Please pass on my thanks to all involved in this repair."

Date: May 29th 2012 Name: Andrew Rose Purchased: Assorted 
"This is my second purchase from R-Tech, I have found there products to be very robust and very highly specified & capable, their service and support is second to none at a price unrivalled in the market place. I can't recommend them enough. Thanks again R-Tech."

Date: May 24th 2012 Name: Paul Atkinson Purchased: Plasma 40HF
"Many thanks for your fast turnaround service; my plasma cutter was returned before I expected it to be and for picking it up when you said you would"

Date: May 22nd 2012 Name: Clive Bayliss Purchased: Ex-Demo Plasma 40HF
"This is my second major equipment purchase from R-Tech my first being a TIG251. Though being a piece of ex-demo equipment, it was in perfect condition and a complete bargain. Works like a dream, much better than a gas axe! This really is trade equipment at bargain basement prices! Don't let the prices fool you, this is not DIY equipment at all, I have regretted going down the DIY route to save a bit of money in the past and now have a policy of buying only "quality" trade equipment; In my opinion, the R-Tech brand is completely in line with this policy!!"

Date: May 21st 2012 Name: Austin Purchased: TIG161 TIG Welder
"Thank you Dylan for your prompt service and delivery of my shiny TIG welder now I will have to study the instructions!"

Date: May15th 2012 Name: Rob Ingle Purchased: TIG160PDC TIG Welder
"I have recently purchased items from R-Tech and the delivery is spot on no waiting around and they are excellent value for money and will be buying again when I purchase a plasma cutter thank you R-Tech"

Date: April 29th 2012 Name: Neil P Purchased: IMIG160 & P30C Plasma Cutter
"I bought my IMIG 160 and a P30C together over a year ago from R TECH, both units have performed admirably well after being used for a number of jobs both in the workshop and on site. I have to admit I was sceptical of their ability when seeing the compact size and low weight of the units, but both units performed brilliantly - easy to control with stepless control knobs and easy to read display (I can adjust things without taking my gloves off). The welds are smooth and even and striking an arc is easy in both MIG and MMA modes.

The after sales support is faultless. On the one occasion I thought I had a fault the folks on the phone knew the machine inside and out and lead me through a series of checks; and from what was found, the machine was collected the next day repaired and returned to me in two days (only 4 days in total).. It turned out the fault was me but I was not charged... In summary I will continue to recommend R TECH to anyone who wants great machines with a proper UK based warranty and after sales"

"Very professional customer service and the free gift was a nice surprise!"

Date: April 16th 2012 Name: Clive Bayliss Purchased: TIG251 TIG welder
"I bought this welder to use on a project that I am working on which has any number of stainless steel and aluminium fabrication requirements. I learned to TIG weld in the late 70's when the machines were much more basic and have done none since so I wasn't sure about all the new bells and whistles! I should not have worried as this machine was a breeze to set up and use on all the materials that I have tried; this included some 2.5mm thick die cast aluminium that I did no prep work on but still produced excellent, defect free welds. My next investment will be a set of gas lenses which should be a benefit when welding outside in breezy conditions. All in all an excellent welder at an equally excellent price and all with outstanding service!"

Date: April 14th 2012 Name: Richard Beal Purchased: Plasma30C
"Great bit of kit; easy to use, well packaged machine, will get a TIG welder soon. Long live good service! 10 out of 10"

Date: April 6th 2012 Name: DAMAR ENGINEERING LEIC LTD Purchased: CMIG315  
"A big thank you to Dylan: Ordered a CMIG315 at 1:50pm and received it the following day at 9am! Excellent machine and service once again. "

Date: April 6th 2012 Name: Grahame Lloyd Purchased: IMIG200  
"I purchased an INV160 MIG in April 2009. It became immediately apparent that a larger machine was needed. No problem for R-Tech who quickly collected the 160 and replaced it with an MIG 200. Three years later, the wire speed controls failed. I rang R-Tech who again said 'No problem' and promptly collected the machine on a Monday.

On Wednesday they rang to arrange return of the machine. As the machine was a whole year out of guarantee and, working to a very tight budget, I was worried about the likely repair cost plus couriers. 'That's all right Mr. Lloyd, there is no charge, we like to look after our customers with good service!' Also, I was talking to none other than the CEO Rob White who knew all about my machine because he had worked on it!

Truly, the service at R-Tech matches the superb machines they sell. My IMIG200 is an incredible piece of kit where farm welding needs a very wide degree of versatility and is capable of performance far beyond it's spec.
Thank you, R-Tech, 6 stars plus one!"

Date: March 30th 2012 Name: Ian Hodges Purchased: Plasma Cutter P30C  
"Absolutely fantastic service guys, thank you. I'd never heard of you before I bought my Plasma 30 from you, but I came to you specifically because you'd been recommended on one of the forums I visit. I can see why now (the other company I asked the same questions to  never even got back to me!). Replacement parts arrived safely today, and more than I expected. Superb customer satisfaction here, would recommend you to anybody."

"The best support on the global market. Excellent email and phone reply for all worldwide buyers"

Date: March 27th 2012 Name: Gerald Riddler Purchased: Plasma Cutter   
"I purchased a plasma cutter for use at home. It worked fine until I had a problem with the cutting head. I contacted Technical Support at 14:30 in the afternoon. The service was great. By 9:15 the next day a new torch was delivered to my home. I know that any company can have a faulty part, but not every company can deliver a backup service like this. Its great. In fact I had the company I work for buy a TIG welder and water cooler; and I am about to order a new R-Tech Plasma 100HF. Keep up the good work and service -  its commendable."

Date: March 23rd 2012 Name: Ian Matthews Purchased: TIG160PDC   
"Great service, delivered next day and a great value TIG welder."

Date: March 10th 2012 Name: Phil Gibbons Purchased: P30C Plasma Cutter   
"A very big thank you to all at R-Tech Welding for such excellent service and super fast delivery. I purchased a Plasma Cutter (P30C) - what a machine! Does exactly what it said on the tin and in my opinion the best looking too, The Digital display for Amps is a useful bonus on this machine as well as the auto drain on the air filter. To sum up, a quality machine at a great price."

Date: March 5th 2012 Name: R. Savage   
"Great company to deal with, very helpful, good products and excellent after-sales service - thanks! Hope to buy another welder in the future"

"I purchased a P30C Plasma Cutter and can only say that it really is a fantastic piece of kit, do not be put off by the bargain price. The help and advice I have received over the phone has been great, I'm now looking to buy a TIG welder and will be looking no further than the R-Tech range - great product and service; thank you."

Date: February 21st 2012 Name: Glenn Faxon Purchased: TIG201 TIG Welder   
"Just want to say a big thankyou to Dylan at R-Tech; I recently bought 200amp AC/DC TIG welder, absolutely awesome piece of kit and welds aluminium like a dream. I have used all the top makes EWM, ESAB, MILLER etc... This machine is as good if not better. Also the MMA side is just as good also. I had a minor problem with the TIG torch threads so I rang them up, they sent me a complete new torch - next day delivery - and it arrived the following morning. The after sales help and support is second to no one. I will be using R-Tech for all my welding needs from now on. Thanks again."

Date: February 17th 2012 Name: S P Harrison Purchased: IMIG200 MIG Welder   
"I bought an I-MIG200 a couple of weeks ago and just to let you know I'm very pleased with it. After using this inverter machine it really is better than any of my previous more expensive traditional welding sets. It looks solid and made from good quality components which have been carefully assembled which help produce consistent excellent welds. It is a pleasure to use. Please feel free to print my name/email to prove genuine feedback..."

Date: January 31st 2012 Name: Steve Chambers Purchased: TIG200PDC TIG Welder   
"Spoke to Joe on phone as I had not used a TIG before. I've gas welded cars a long time ago. Done plenty of MIG and a Stick since. Always fancied a TIG but never took the plunge; after speaking to Joe I decided on a shop soiled TIG200PDC. Received the machine in less than 24hrs in perfect condition, all I needed was a bottle of Argon. It welds like a dream. Very user friendly with brilliant features. Joe says that the warranty can be extended after two years, that says it all. Many thanks to Joe and R-Tech team for your excellent service, I will definitely be using R-Tech again."

Date: January 30th 2012 Name: Glyn Vernon Purchased: Argon Regulator   
"Argon regulator arrived damaged, (presumably on route). I informed R-Tech and their reply was immediate and unequivocal - a new unit would be despatched at once! It arrived today as promised. Amazing value and truly impeccable service. Thank you very much R-Tech."

Date: January 22nd 2012 Name: Steven Taylor Purchased: TIG251 TIG Welder   
"Very helpful advice on the phone about the TIG251 that I bought. Ordered at 11am one day and delivered by 10.30am the next. Very efficient service."

Date: January 9th 2012 Name: Andy Lowe Purchased: TIG200PDC TIG Welder   
"As others have commented the response and customer satisfaction dealing with R Tech is exemplary. I have just bought the TIG 200DC to replace my old Eutectic scratch start and it is money well spent. The machine arrived very quickly too. Plenty to learn with all the settings available but initial trial runs are very encouraging. Hopefully the machine will stand the test of time but with the 2 year warranty and ease of dealing with R Tech I have no concerns at all. A very personal service and fast response to any queries. ."

Date: January 8th 2012 Name: Nick Cowley Purchased: TIG200PDC TIG Welder   
"I purchased TIG200PDC in February 2010, having used the welder for two years, I thought I would leave a review after testing it over a long period. Fantastic is the only way I can describe this machine, in those two years it has performed superbly well in every operation I have asked it to do. As good as the machine is the customer service is better having damaged a thread on the machine I contacted customer service trying to purchase the part, only to be told one would be sent out FOC, that's after two years of use, superb I will be upgrading my machine this year, will I use R-Tech Welding again, without hesitation"

Date: January 6th 2012 Name: Stacey Atherley Purchased: TIG200PDC TIG Welder   
"Extremely pleased with the attention I received from Joe, and the rest of the people on my visit to look at a TIG welder. No question was too silly to ask, (only used Oxy/Acetylene previously) and was very pleased with what I'd been shown. Thanks again, and I'll be recommending you to my friends."

Date: January 5th 2012 Name: Milan Roberto Purchased: IMIG200 MIG Welder   
"I want to thank the R-Tech Company for the great product that I bought a month ago. I bought the IMIG200 and it is very powerful and versatile. The expedition service is excellent and very fast. A special thanks to Dylan Emery for the excellent assistance service"

Date: December 29th 2011 Name: Julian Harber. Purchased: IMIG160 MIG Welder   
"Having a welder that works means there was a reluctance for me to buy a new one, but the best thing I did was talk to Dylan who gave me sound advice with no bull! I bit the bullet and bought an R-Tech MIG that is excellent and does exactly what Dylan said it would - restoring old cars needs a welder that is totally controllable and this little I-MIG 160 is a cracking machine for the money!"

"R-Tech to the rescue! Had a small problem with the gas valve on my TIG welder, emailed R-Tech about the problem Xmas Eve didn't expect a reply until after hols, but no a reply within 5 mins! a new valve posted out Xmas Eve received it on the 28th job done! what fantastic customer service absolutely faultless!"

"What a pleasure to deal with such a professional and obliging company I have just recently ordered a TIG 161 Package via the telephone, it was ordered before 3pm which qualified for next day delivery but as this was not convenient for me the young gentleman with whom I was dealing with was only to willing to arrange a day that was convenient. Now that is what I call service it a pity other companies don't that a leaf out of R-Tech`s book.."

"I have several R-Tech machines, both MIG and TIG and they are all extremely reliable. On the odd occasion that I've needed help/advice I have found the staff both knowledgeable and helpful. Having good suppliers is key to building your business and R-Tech have certainly helped me in building mine."

Date: November 10th 2011 Name: Nigel Bryant Purchased: TIG200PDC   
"Fabulous welder (TIG 200PDC) - performs even better than I had hoped, also far superior to previous MMA models I owned years ago. Unbelievably good customer service too; calls returned promptly and issues sorted immediately by very knowledgeable and friendly staff. (If only all companies and products could be this good...!)"

Date: November 6th 2011 Name: William Kennedy Purchased: TIG200PDC   
"Just a quick note to say how pleased I am with my new TIG200PDC Having never used a TIG before I am seriously happy with the machine and weld quality, a quality machine can even make the likes of myself (an amateur) get good results, will certainly buy from again"

Date: October 30th 2011 Name: Dave Spence Purchased: P30C Plasma Cutter   
"This is the second item I have purchased from R-tech Welding. A few months ago I bought a TIG 201 AC/DC. Fantastic machine, and with advice from Dylan, I can weld aluminium and have never TIG welded before. Once you get the settings right it's easy. My second purchase was a P30C plasma cutter bought last week. Again a fantastic machine, easy to use with great results. Both products were delivered as promised and came with detailed operating instructions. Thank you R-tech Welding, you are a pleasure to do business with"

Date: October 26th 2011 Name: Bob Bailey Purchased: TIG251 TIG Welder   
"I was unsure whether or not the R-Tech 251 AC/DC TIG welder (250 amp) would be capable of welding 9mm walled aluminium half tube to a solid end which until now I have had so send out to be done. I contacted Dylan at R-Tech who invited me to send him some off- cuts of the material. Within a couple of days it was back, (by courier) welded together. That decided me to buy not only the welder but a 40A plasma cutter as well. The units arrived the next day and I am delighted with both. I have been in touch since with a query about AC welding and I have to say that the customer support and the knowledge of the staff is second to none. I will buy from this company again without hesitation."

Date: September 6th 2011 Name: Nigel McDermott Purchased: P30C Plasma Cutter   
"Only just starting purchasing from R-Tech, so far with a plasma cutter  and TIG. Never found such good, reassuring back up. They don't ask or pressure, their equipment speaks for itself. Staff with good knowledge and politeness too. Whether your amateur or pro, R-Tech is the right place to go!"

Date: August 20th 2011 Name: Phillip Dunnett Purchased: P30C Plasma Cutter   
"Thank you R Tech for a friendly efficient service. Purchased 30c plasma cutter in Mid July, ordered 5.15pm so had missed the carrier for that day arrived at 2 30pm day after. Fantastic piece of kit. Came back for more in August. Had to have a TIG welder. Once again the service was excellent. Foot pedal was out of stock, Dylan rang to apologize, then within hours rang again to let me know one was on the way. Arrived next day by 2.30pm. Would recommend this company to anyone looking for good quality kit at unbelievable prices. Will be back for more. A big thank you for using Professional carriers. All my parcels have arrived around 2.30pm on the day they said. No chasing round after them."

Date: August 12th 2011 Name: Richard Budd Purchased: P30C Plasma Cutter   
"After the failure of my expensive Plasma Cutter I purchased your R-Tech Plasma 30C. I am over the moon with the performance of this mighty mouse Cutter that punches way above it's weight. Superb cutting performance with no visible smoke in an enclosed environment. I won't bother to have my other set repaired because the 30C is so much better. Simply fantastic, a joy to use."

Date: August 11th 2011 Name: Dave Buxton Purchased: TIG WELDER   
"I would like to thank R-Tech for their excellent after sales service, they cured the fault on my R-Tech TIG welder the same day they received it and returned it on the first available post. Their technical support is excellent."

Date: August 10th 2011 Name: Richard Luedicke Purchased: TIG161   
"I have done the rounds in looking for a quality TIG Welder as we all do. What a jungle; smart boys, con boys and confusion! Until I phoned R-Tech. I didn't mention buying a machine; just asked for advice and had a sound, sensible response. I now have complete confidence in buying from R Tech. I requested a delivery date (no problem) I asked for advice on how to set up the welder considering my limited experience: "Once you have the machine phone us and we will assess your welding ability and advise. If you have one of our machines we will always be at your disposal."

Date: August 9th 2011 Name: John Powell Purchased: Consumables

Date: July 26th 2011 Name: Andy Hart Purchased: TIG161    
"Never welded aluminium before, spoke to the guys at R Tech who explained what I needed and how basically to weld aluminium. I purchased a 161 machine plus some accessories, after getting hold of a bottle and within a few hours of practicing I was welding with good results. Have since used it on steel and its a dream to use, the foot pedal option is a must as it makes the whole process ultra controllable."

Date: July 18th 2011 Name: Andrew Stephens Purchased: Sanding Discs   
"I just needed a few sanding discs for a small job at home so my order was very, very small. Despite this, my order was processed the same day and delivered before noon the next. It really is refreshing to deal with a company that so obviously values its customers both great and small. I would have no hesitation in using you again. Thank you.."

Date: July 17th 2011 Name: Chris Quelcuti Purchased: TIG201   
"After having made the mistake of attempting to get our TIG 201 welder repaired by someone other than r-tech. And being told that it was not possible to repair it, and would we like to buy a new one for around £3,000, we sent it back to R-tech and it was repaired and back to us in 2 days, it only took so long due to the devastation done where we had sent it to begin with. All in all R-tech do a stunning job and I would recommend them to anyone who is looking to buy a very good reasonably priced welding unit, they are very helpful so much so we have just bought another unit from them and will continue to do so in the future."

Date: July 11th 2011 Name: Jez Lamb Purchased: TIG200PDC   
"Just a quick line. Bought a 200amp TIG inverter from you almost a year ago now. Never had any probs, never missed a beat with it, my TIG welding is getting better all the time and thanks for the advice on choosing the 200amp over the smaller one, I never run it anywhere near capacity. I always recommend you to other engineers. Excellent service and keep up the good work "

 
Date: June 20th 2011 Name: Bob Melrose Purchased: Plasma Cutter   
"I called to praise your company on its stupendous product and service, I wish all companies where as good as you. I ordered a Plasma Cutter at midday and it got delivered at bang on 9 am next day. Price and quality are great, will recommend your product to all who I meet and I'll be ordering a TIG WELDER in September all being well. "

"I placed my order late on Sunday evening and within minutes received an email to tell me my order and payment had been received. On Monday I received another email telling me my order had been despatched. On Tuesday my order arrived by 11:30am. I am totally satisfied with R TECH for dealing with my needs promptly and delivering exactly when they said it would be here. If you need to speak to someone from R TECH their team on the phones are extremely helpful and polite. All in all a very pleasant online shopping experience. I have no doubt that i will use R TECH in the future over all other suppliers "

Date: May 18th 2011 Name: David Ball Purchased: R-Tech TIG201 TIG Welder   
"Many thanks great service TIG 201 AC/DC 200Amp never used a TIG before spent a lot of time reading about setting it up first.. then spent time moving the torch and filler rod without the welder on...then tried ally about 3mm thick after a couple of hours and changing a lot of tungstens.. I managed to get some good welds ... Thanks R- Tech "

Date: March 31st 2011 Name: Ross Haarhoff Purchased: R-Tech TIG160PDC TIG Welder   
"After much consideration, I decided to purchase the TIG160PDC and the Weldability auto darkening helmet. The goods arrived well packaged and everything there for me to get welding straight away. The machine itself is fantastic and welds stainless and mild steel with absolute ease. I have managed to weld some 5mm thick stainless steel using pulse mode in TIG. Weld quality was nothing short of brilliant. Welding helmet worked perfectly fine "

Date: March 18th 2011 Name: Phil Rosier Purchased: R-Tech IMIG200 MIG Welder   
"Having purchased a TIG 201 TIG Welder last year, the business has expanded rapidly. I spoke to Dylan at Rtech on Monday morning explaining that I needed a MIG 200 Unit and a Plasma P30C for a rather urgent job. The units arrived Tuesday and have been put to work. Great service and support from a great company. "  
Date: March 16th 2011 Name: James Dyson Purchased: R-Tech TIG200PDC TIG Welder   
"Just Purchased a TIG200PDC Welder, I spoke to Dylan on the telephone and he was extremely helpful. I am studying TIG Welding at 'City College' in Plymouth and need a DC welder to practice. I am really pleased with this unit. R-Tech are excellent value for money! The unit was posted out the same day and arrived at 11am the following morning. I would definitely recommend this company. It is hard to find a business with excellent customer service these days, but R-Tech definitely are one of them. Highly Recommended. A****** "  
Date: March 14th 2011 Name: WK Lewis Purchased: R-Tech P40HF Plasma Cutter   
"Great Service. Ordered plasma cutter one day, it arrived the next and was immediately put to work. It performs excellently. We are very pleased. Thank you"  
Date: March 10th 2011 Name: Jaguar Land Rover Purchased: R-Tech TIG401 TIG Welder   
"The service from R-Tech has been superb, from delivery, to technical questions and any accessory or spares we've required. Our unit gets heavy use and has performed excellently. So well in fact, we bought a second unit for our other workshop"  
Date: March 10th 2011 Name: John Evans Purchased: R-Tech TIG201 TIG Welder   
"Thankyou for your quick response to my problem with the TIG201 TIG welder, spoke to Rob last Friday and he arranged for the unit to be picked up on Monday by UPS, and delivered when he said on Thursday, by Thursday afternoon I was welding again! Fantastic service second to none, anybody reading this I would highly recommend R-Tech they are BRILLIANT!"  
Date: March 8th 2011 Name: Dave Beman Purchased: R-Tech P40HF Plasma Cutter   
"I have never dealt with R-Tech Welding before but after reading several good reports I decided to contact them and we spent ages talking about my requirements and suitability before purchasing their P40HF plasma cutter and 160A AC/DC TIG welder. Unfortunately both arrived damaged due to the carrier mishandling them but as soon as I explained the problem to R-Tech they offered a replacement for next day delivery. Rather than risk another courier accident I decided to return the damaged items to R-Tech and see my replacements working before bringing them home. I got the full VIP treatment and a crash course on their Plasma cutter and TIG welder from the CEO Rob White. It’s clear from the moment you enter their premises that you’re dealing with a bright and intelligent bunch of dedicated technicians who are proud of their history and good service. I’ve got over 45 years experience in fabrication and manufacturing and it’s highly reassuring to find a company that can still find the time and energy to look after their customers"  
Date: March 7th 2011 Name: Roger Sims Purchased: R-Tech TIG161 TIG Welder   
"First it was a great relief that the lady on the phone was really helpful and as I wanted to look at the machines before I purchased one the same day, she offered me a demo on a machine. I was rather taken back by this and snapped up the chance. When I arrived the staff were really helpful and allowed me to try alloy welding in their workshop. In the day and age the retail business is all about money and not the customer but all the staff at R-TECH seem to have managed to keep to the old fashioned approach of putting the customer first....WELL DONE!!"  
Date: March 4th 2011 Name: John Whyte Purchased: R-Tech TIG161 TIG Welder   
"Just a quick thank you for your help yesterday morning when you sorted me out with the TIG161 and all the consumables. It is rare to get such good personal service from an internet company. For this price I expected to have an inferior machine compared with all the 3 phase AC welders I have used BUT this TIG161 is an amazing Aluminium welder and it is so adjustable enabling me to weld even dirty material with ease. Also it appears that the Tungsten life will be very long with the Gas lens torch set up you were able to supply. Thank you again and keep up the great work"  
Date: March 1st 2011 Name: Benedict Jackson Purchased: R-Tech P30C Plasma Cutter   
"Delivery was extremely quick, and on trying the product out I was impressed almost beyond belief, as is anyone who witnesses it in use. Given its diminutive compact size and that it runs from just a 13Amp plug, I did not expect it to achieve anything like the quality of cut that it does, and with such ease. The thickness of material that it will clean cut is very impressive indeed"
Date: February 20th 2011 Name: Anthony Rickson Purchased: R-Tech TIG160PDC TIG Welder   
"Fantastic service and great products. I've been using your TIG welder for my kit car build"  
Date: February 12th 2011 Name: Ronnie Court Purchased: R-Tech INV160 MIG Welder   
"Received the welder Friday, many thanks and a truly fantastic service, I recommend R-Tech to all my friends and family and with this level of customer service I'm sure you will have no shortage of orders in the future"  
Date: February 9th 2011 Name: Glen Mathews Purchased: R-Tech TIG251 TIG Welder   
"Thank you for a very fast delivery, the machine is in perfect condition. The TIG 251 gives a very stable arc with controlled gas purge which is essential for the brass welding I carry out and the AC control of balance and frequency is as good as any machine I have used in the past 20 years"  
Date: January 15th 2011 Name: LightShip Therapies Purchased: R-Tech P30C Plasma Cutter  
"I am well impressed with the 30 Amp Plasma Cutter I picked up from you guys. We use it on our lightship project and it runs from our Lister generator with no problems. It cuts through steel like butter and will see plenty of use. Being portable is appealing as we can take it around the ship with ease. Thanks for your help and advice"  
Date: January 8th 2011 Name: Precision Sheet Metal Purchased-Tech IMIG200 MIG Welder  
"The I-MIG200 was the best thing I bought last year! It is a very efficient machine with excellent power and very versatile even at low amperage. The wire feed is exceptional, unlike many other MIGs and is built to last. Hard to know how they do it for the money"

“First I would like to thank you and your company for the great service you provide. It is great to see a British company that actually gives a damn about its customers. I thought I would show you a few projects I have been working on recently, the first is an aluminium trolley for rowing boats and the second is a stanchion for a small fishing boat in stainless steel.

As you know I have only been fabricating using TIG since buying the TIG251 (water-cooled) from you so I am very pleased with the results so far. I think it is testament to the quality of your kit and support your staff gave me after my purchase.

I hope you will pass on my thanks to all the team.
Regards and thanks again”
