5 out of 5 stars THIS IS THE ONE TO GET!   February 18, 2005

Many years ago when I got this iron, it was only $30, and I see it has almost doubled in price, but STILL FAR BELOW the cost of the other Weller soldering iron stations!

And there is really no other reason to get the other ones, when one of the elements goes bad on the other ones, you have to pay more than the price of this whole station just to replace the element! This one doesn't have any element, you just replace the tip, which you can get at any Radio Shack for a dollar or two tops. And I still have not needed to replace the tip on this one after years of use, since I keep the tip nice and tinned.

This heats up nice and fast, is always reliable, just as good as any of the BLUE ones that cost three and four times the cost that the same company sells, and has never let me down.

Get it now, before they raise the price any more!

Once you get it, it should last a lifetime.

This is my first soldering station purchase. After reading several reviews on different products, this one seemed to be the most favorable. It hasn't let me down yet. It only comes with one screwdriver tip. I found some extra tips on Amazon.

I purchased this needing to do a very delicate (several hour long) solder job, and I needed more than just the little handheld I keep around the house. I used to work professionally in the electronics repair business, but had long since gotten rid of my tools.

This is a very well built soldering station that really holds up. If you are a beginner or professional, you will appreciate the ease of use and nice soldering this station allows you to do. The temperature control makes it great for a multitude of projects.

In short, don't be fooled by the low price. This station will perform as well as any $100.00+ unit out there.



4 out of 5 stars Excellent Iron Makes a BIG Difference   February 15, 2008

After exrpessing a lot of frustration to our internal tech guy I took his advice and finally broke down and bought a good iron. Wow. This ain't your daddy's $3 iron that's for sure! Tasks that were a huge pain in the kiester become straightforward. Small jobs are an absolute breeze. Do yourself a favor and spend the dough on a good iron. You'll wonder why you waited so long.


We'll be adding even more exciting features to assist you in the coming year.
