Pros:Cheap!Points are standard, so replacements are many and cheap!Temp control, not bad.Cons:That gawd-awful base! The tiny round sticky pad on its underside does not hold on the surface of anything after a few times of taking the iron on and off the spring holder, and tips over along with iron and all. I did a hack that worked very well, though: I bought a set of marble glass coasters from Target and sticky Velcro bands from 3M, stuck one piece of Velcro band under the narrow part of the base (the base looks like an upside-down keyhole), stuck the other Velcro piece on the coaster after cleaning it well with 70% iso alcohol, then stuck the base to the coaster so that the sticky pad touches the coaster and so that the Velcro strips stuck to each other, and voilá! Worked perfectly. Even so that base is crap. So is the puny sponge that comes with it.Conclusion:Iron works well, the tiny case with brass shavings is a great addition and looks cute, and the base can be hacked to work, so I think it's great.

Oh yea!! This is everything it claims to be. I have had many soldering irons over the years and let me tell you this is my favorite one. I fix many things every day . I use this soldering iron at least 4 days a week and it is so cool to have it do what it is supposed to do every time and do it well and quickly. No problems no difficulties no complications, it just works every single time. Just make sure to keep the tip really clean and it is awsome.

This iron is an incredible bargain for a unit that comes with an adjustable temperature range and on/off switch. The temperature dial is small but, it works! There are some replacement tips that I found on Amazon that do completely cover the ceramic-core like the original included tip. My favorite is the Kzerlly 900M-T-2.4D which are the chisel tipped model and conduct heat over a good sized area. Another is the Mudder 900 M-T-B which are the pointed tip model similar to the original tip. The iron itself works well and once you get the chisel tips on the iron, it really conducts the heat. I have used Stay Brite silver bearing solder which comes with the liquid Stay Clean flux (in the small kits) to successfully connect stainless steel wire to carbon steel at temps around 630 degrees F. The small holder on this station is a bonus with an included rosin and smaller sized brass cleaning wire pad. If you get some tip tinner/cleaner (available on Amazon) you will be able to keep your tips in great shape. My only complaint about this unit is that the power cord has a tendency to kink; however, you would need to spend four times as much to get the Yinhua soldering station which has the silicone flexible cord.

I already owned 3 soldering irons. I've had 2 forever, a Craftsman pistol type that will melt the North Pole when you pull the trigger (only good for big jobs), an old Radio Shack pencil type that takes forever to heat up, and anther pencil type I bought a few years ago from Amazon with an on/off button and a tiny temperature control dial. The latter worked for awhile but then the temperature dial became unreliable and cutting out.So I decided to search for yet another soldering iron. I just wanted a good, reliable iron with an on/off switch and temperature control. I use it for model railroading, mostly soldering wires to the track. This is a bit tricky because if the iron isn't the right temperature you wind up melting the plastic rail ties before the solder even melts. The temperature dial on this iron seems steady and accurate. The on/off switch is right on the grip. The tip is very fine for detailed work. There are not many extras with this kit but I was mostly looking for a good iron. It only has 1 tip; a spare would have been nice. I do like the bronze cleaning pad it came with; just one swipe knock off the carbon buildup. I've only had it a few weeks but so far am very pleased with it.Update: I forgot to mention the plug is 3 pronged (grounded). All my other irons are 2 pronged. I don't know why this had to have 3, but it's a bit inconvenient since I have and old house with a lot of 2 prong outlets. Sure, I can get an adapter but it's just an inconvenience.
