I am a restaurant owner. I needed a mobile welder and chose John based on his reviews. Consider this new review as you make your choices.
On March 22, 2018 I had John replace the handle for flat top cover for an open pantry salad chiller on the cooks line. It snapped off last week. He's not going to warranty it because of abuse. RIDICULOUS! Let me tell you how little abuse this gets. I've been open for 10 years. First time I had to repair this was 3 months ago. I'm open 6 days a week. We take the lids off when we open up for business at 11am, and we leave it off all day. We put it back on at 10pm when we close. It gets stored next to the other 3
(I have 4 lids total, refer to the pictures which shows you where I store it and how it's used). Bottom line, this guy is in it for the money. I wasted $160 on him Screwing the handle in (he said he couldn't weld it). Obviously the handles not the only thing that got screwed. There's a lot of welders out there, shop around.
BTW. He quoted $300 to replace this pin for the cutting boards. Glad I said no to that one.
