For anyone shopping in welding and soldering equipment, choosing a MIG welder often comes down to two very different ideas of convenient. The VEVOR MIG Welder 160Amp 4-in-1 Gas MIG/Flux Core MIG/Stick/Lift machine is a higher-output unit with more process options. The HIZONE 135A MIG Welder Intelligent Portable IGBT Inverter 110V 3-in-1 is a portable machine designed to move with you. One is priced higher because it gives you more capability; the other is the easier call for a tight budget and a packed toolbox.
Quick Verdict
Pick the VEVOR if thicker metal and higher output matter most. Pick the HIZONE if you want a portable, lower-cost machine for everyday repairs.

Where Each Product Wins
The VEVOR has the broader process setup and more available current, so it is the stronger choice when your project list includes heavier materials. The HIZONE counters with a portable package and a lower price, and it still covers the processes most home users need.
Product Notes
VEVOR MIG Welder 160Amp 4-in-1
The VEVOR is the more complete shop machine of the two. At 160A, it covers mild steel, stainless steel, cast iron, sheet metal, square tubing, and metal cage up to 10mm thick, which is beyond what the HIZONE's 5/32-inch plate capability covers. It works with flux core wire or gas solid wire, accepts an 11 lb / 5 kg spool, and gives you a gas MIG option in addition to flux core and stick modes. The LCD control panel makes current adjustments more direct. The trade-off is the price: at USD 128.00, it costs $38.01 more than the portable competitor, so if your welding never approaches that 160A ceiling, you are paying for headroom you may not use.
HIZONE 135A MIG Welder Intelligent Portable 3-in-1
The HIZONE is the easier machine to live with for mobile repair. It weighs 10.7 lb and comes with a shoulder strap and handles, so you can carry it to the job. Its output is enough for common home DIY, outdoor repairs, farming, and road-equipment maintenance, and it handles plate up to 5/32 inch thick. The automatic feed with synergy control is beginner-friendly because it matches voltage as you change wire feed speed. The package includes a 10ft MIG torch, 10ft ground clamp, 10ft electrode holder, and 0.030 inch / 1 lb flux core wire. The main limitation is that lift TIG needs an extra torch, and the maximum output is lower than the VEVOR for thicker material.
Final Choice by Use Case
For a mobile kit: choose the HIZONE 135A. It costs less, is much easier to tote, and handles standard flux-core repairs. For a bench welder that should last through thicker projects: choose the VEVOR 160A. The extra capability justifies the higher price when you need it.
