Multiplaz-2500 M

Hi Guys,
I'm not a welder, although I have attempted to play one at home.
(stick welding with an old Craftsman welder)

While looking at DIY spot welders I ran across this, seems like a
multi purpose welder/cutting machine. I wonder if this works
as well as is shown, ok, I know these are sales demos and
designed to show the best operation.

Has anyone on the group saw or used one of the welder/cutters?

Welding Aluminum, I'm not sure about penetration on this one.

This video makes me think it has a little more care must be used after each
weld,
I don't know Chinese.

Has anyone here used this welder/cutter?
Do know how much it costs?
Do you find it interesting?
Inquiring minds want to know.

Thanks for your input, I thought someone on the group
would find some interest in it.
Ya, the review looks a bit like an add placement doesn't it.
In the video where he is cutting the pipe it seems to cut slow,
but I don't have a torch, so I'm not sure.
