A 220-volt supply can transmit the power more cheaply because a smaller current is needed, and so you can use thinner cables and/or lose less energy through heat generated in the cables. This machine may be on the affordable side, but its build quality does not look cheap at all. In fact, the entire unit is put together exceptionally well and both the plastic and the metal parts look pretty good. The case itself is rugged.
