Don't laugh. It has very good reviews. I paid $75 for it. Guess how much a 100' 12-gauge extension cord costs for this machine? That's right---$75 to $100. Any cheaper sources for extension cords?

For 100', would 14-gauge work?

If you haven’t already bought one and if you have a Sam’s Club membership or know someone who has…for $59.00 they have a 100’ yellow jacket extension cord 12/3 wire. Yellow jacket is arguably the best extension cord made and will last you for many years.
