The cst 280 is a proven machine. Very nice robust welder.
Be aware, it’s only a few 280 amp machine while being used on 3 phase power. In single phase power, it’s only a 200 amp machine. If your considering a
new one and only have single phase power, your better off buying a 210 max star.
 
I’ve ran the cst 280 on 3 phase power. Structural welding. Very nice arc.
