Greater than one weekIt does exactly what I expect it to. Fits well and stays in place while still being able to lift it up no problem. The grind feature is nice, and the glass is crystal clear.

> 3 dayIm not a real welder. I weld things now and then, and I can do an okay weld when I need to. I had an Antra dimming helmet with specs similar to this ones. It was okay, but it was slow to darken and would quit working without warning. This helmet feels solid but not heavy. The band is wide and comfortable. The nod-to-drop works very well. The undimmed view is very good, brighter than the Antra. Dimming is so fast that its seamless transition from undimmed room light to dimmed arc light. I dont see the arc at all before dimming. This uses standard batteries and the batteries are accessible and very easy to replace. This was very welcome, as the Antra used flat coin batteries and it was absolutely awful to open it up to change batteries. I compare because the Antra was less than half the price and that was attractive for an occasional welder. This Lincoln Electric helmet was expensive for me, but I should have bought this helmet the first time. Its more than I wanted to pay, but I feel safer.

Greater than one weekGot this to replace a harbor freight hood. Definitely a lot better quality and it’s cheaper than the other miller & Hobart hoods. Very light weight too.

> 3 dayI am just a recreational welder and got tired of doing the head flip with a normal helmet. So I bought this helmet. It works fantastic for my needs. There is no reason to purchase a $300 - $500 helmet unless your welding for a living. Easy to set the darkness without having to take the helmet off. Easy to replace the AA batteries if needed. Great helmet for the money!

> 3 dayIt came out of the box w/ tiny pit marks on the ADF lense. Contacted LE, said to return for another one. This is the second, as the first one came with the box almost ripped in two.

Analysis and Perspective
> 3 dayGreat helmet - works as expected. I need to learn how to tweak it better so it stays up when needed, and easy to close when needed. So far, I have only used it to tack weld and not long duration welding.
