I have used it for wleding up exhaust systems, fabricating my drawer unit plus lots of other jobs, although it does require a 15A outlet which is not too difficult......
I just jumped on their website and the unit does look good. The gas issue is the only reason I won't get a mig as you said. Maybe I'll just have to run the welder from the oven power point until I get told off by the missus coz she needs the oven
