Found exactly what I needed, no thanks to the gentleman working. The worker who initially began to help me, (thank you for the offer of good service), asked what I was in for. When told him I need mig contact tips for a 15 series gun, he asked what welder. When it wasn’t red or blue, he was done with me. The other gentleman in the store was relayed the info about my “knock of welder” (-guy number 1), he approached me and informed me that they won’t have what I’m looking for. I found exactly what I needed, and had a good purchase. If you are looking for help, make the trip to the general air in Colorado Springs, where the staff actually care. Not a bad store, just uneducated-uncaring employees.

Grant was so helpful! I had a great experience as a new welder. He walked us through issues we had had in great detail. Wonderful customer support!

Grant was extremely knowledgeable and helpful to inexperienced average folks like myself. Prices on gas are very reasonable as well.

We have been using General Air for decades for our auto body repair shop. The staff at the Littleton Store are always friendly, knowledgeable and ready to help. We appreciate the years of great reliable service with our welding / cutting equipment, welding / cutting consumables, various professional gas cylinders and safety equipment.

I have been dealing with Grant and the guys here for a few years now and I don’t go anywhere else. I have purchased supplies and gas from other places but these guys are friendly and professional. They saved me a lot of money when my plasma cutter stopped working. I was ready to spend some money to fix it and they helped me find a simple problem and I was back up and running that afternoon. Always helpful with customers and questions. They even treat my dog like family. That goes along way with me!!! I enjoy stopping in just to see what they have on sale and to chat. If you want the best, these are your guys!!!

I’m just learning to weld. I’ve had this location recommended to me by a couple of people in the industry so I stopped in to get some advice and spoke to Grant. Great product knowledge and customer service. He was able to recommend everything I’d need as an amateur and answered all my questions. This place will definitely be my go to for everything

Went in to get a full set up for my new oxy/acetylene bottles. Tristan was very knowledgeable and helped me go through all of the different options and explained what was best for what I was using them for. I will definitely be returning for his service in the future.

Amazing experience. Im a beginner welder purchasing my first MIG welder. They spent an hour giving me a lowdown of how everything works and what Im going to need and hooked me up with an awesome deal. Not only that but I also got a free 4 hour welding class to sign up for in the future. Highly recommend.

Im new to welding, researched for about a year before deciding to jump in, buy a machine and get to learning. Went to General Air in Littleton, Tristan Spainhower greeted myself and my neighbor who came along to check out the store. The knowledge that Tristan was patient enough to share with me while answering my Newbie questions was incredible! We could not have had a better experience! Ended up buying a Miller 220 AC/DC and a ton of supporting equipment that I can grow into for some time to come. Thank you Tristan and General Air!

Great place and staff, I have been welding for 45 years and have known the manager Bo for 23 years. He has grown up in the business as I have and knows his stuff. General Air got a great asset with a great customer base when the hired him. Congrats Bo, great to see you again, and will continue to do business there and sent my friends. Best, Dave and Marti.

I will say that this place has a lot of different products and the staff is always friendly and helpful. There are very few places in the area where you can buy prefilled, 5lb CO2 tanks.The only problem I have is that the prices have risen ~40% in the past few years, and you never know how much youll end up paying ($25 last week for a 5lb tank), just that itll be more than the last time. In the past they have given me one price on the phone, and then tired to charge a few more dollars when I got there. I called them on it and they honored the lower price, but then the price was higher the next time.They give deals to businesses (which they should and I dont fault them for). I purchased a 5lb, prefilled CO2 tank from another (much further away) store for $17 a few months ago, and the sticker indicated that it was from this shop.Im happy this place is here but I wish they were more transparent with the pricing.

Great service. They have always taken great care of us. Have never found a reason to go anywhere else or even have my consumables delivered. Hope they are a round for a long time.

I cannot say enough about the incredible level of service i received yesterday when buying my first welder. As a hobbyist i had lots of stupid questions and like a pro, Grant Whitby answered them all and made my decision to buy from a brick and motar store totally worth it! Cant wait to fire up this Miller 215. Thank you Grant and General Air Service.

General air is a great welding supply store. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. It can be intimidating for the hobby welder to come in and ask questions at the place the pros go, but the folks here have always been super helpful and friendly! I highly recommend the welding class that they have as well (welding class is at main location downtown Denver).

I brought questions on a welding project to the guys in Littleton store, they helped me solve the problems and provided the products i needed to complete the job. My wrought-iron fence project was a success and it looks great in spite of my novice talent. Special thanks to Steve and Triston for helping me figure out the best options for the project.

Amazingly friendly even to a dummy like me. Ive had a couple lessons, but I had no idea what I was doing and they could not have been easier to work with getting an oxy acetylene setup for me. Great prices. And a soda machine while you wait...

The guys here are AWESOME!! I am a part-time hobby welder and treated myself to a Millermatic 212 about eight years ago. Needless to say it sits idle a lot of time. I was having some issues with the wire feeding properly so I called and they told me to bring it in. Once there they wheeled it into their test area, promptly pulled it apart, made some adjustments, and helped me load it back on the truck. I couldnt be happier with their professionalism, expertise, and customer service. THANKS GUYS!!!!!

What a great shop. They had stock items that I had struggled to find elsewhere in town. The staff was knowledgeable and very helpful with suggestions. You can tell Mr. Paul has great experience in the construction industry. Way to go guys. This is how it should be done. I will be back.

Friendly staff and a great selection. With a lot of welders buying stuff on line, Tom and staff go the extra to compete . Its not always about saving 5 dollars on gear because its invaluable to have a great brick and mortar store where you can touch and see gear up close -especially if youre spending thousands.

Hands down the best welding supply store period. Im the owner of Hot Shot Fabrication and when it comes to business, customer service is one of the most important things. The guys here at General Air have some of the best customer service and get you in and out the door with no hassle! I buy all my welding machines and supplies from them. They have the best prices and have what you need in stock. I bought an Ellis 1800 Bandsaw from them today, and they had it in my truck in less than 2 mins! Im always impressed with how this place runs so smoothly. Keep up the great work guys, Ill be a customer for life!

My employees and I purchase supplies from this location on a weekly basis and always have a great experience. The store is always very clean and the staff attentive and knowledgeable. We work all over the metro so we could easily use any other store or supplier but we keep coming back to this location. We would highly recommend the General Air Littleton team!

Just got back from General Air after taking in a regulator that I thought needed repair. I talked with Greg who noticed that I may have had it adjusted incorrectly. He tested it out for me, and expertly explained how to adjust the pressure. I dont weld a lot, but definitely learned something new about my welder! Greg also took the time to explain the differences in MIG welder wire as options for what Im working on. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff! Definitely a well-recommended shop!

Just wanted to add to my review since the owner took the time to respond to my review! Actually, the fact that the owner took the time to ask for more detail and provided contact information perfectly sums up the business. The people are very friendly and helpful. Sometimes Ive even stopped by just to window shop (for that multiprocess welder I cant afford!). So, why did I give them 4 stars? Well, its symptomatic of the current consumer market. I was given a CK Worldwide TIG torch as a present, and AFAIK its not an unusual item, but still they lacked the necessary stubby gas lens parts for replacements. Its not that big of a deal since I can find them online, but Id prefer to buy local. I want friendly places like this to stay in business, because last time I checked Im not getting my gas from Amazon Prime! USA needs the trades to be a focus for the next generation and I want places like General Air, Littleton to be around to thrive. Thanks again for your help!

I wanted to express my gratitude to General Air for helping me make all the right decisions on my recent purchases of:hypertherm powermax 45lincoln 210 mplincoln tig 200Im an beginner or intermediate welder at best and was looking to upgrade to some more sophisticated machines.  With so many different processes and machines to choose from, the decision making process became quite overwhelming on my own and I was very appreciative of Paul Kenneys assistance with my multiple questions.  He was very knowledgeable and had a good clear answer for everything I asked.  He helped me through a couple of exchanges to help me finally get into the correct bundle and was very patient and accomodating with all of my back-and-forth ideas.  Paul is a good man.  As a fellow business owner I know how hard good help is to find.  General Air is lucky to have a man like Paul on their team.  Also as a side note, Greg Oestman has always been very helpful too.  Thanks to everyone at General Air!Sincerely,Douglas MacLean
