The Hakko is amazing, no fuss, no question of cheap chinese parts. You'll be happy with your purchase after you use it for the first time. Many people here will always side with cheaper price as a priority, but there are some things that you should spend a bit extra on if you want the job done right and efficiently. I used to use a soldapullt frequently, I tried braids, I tried bulb suckers...all would take me forever to desolder, and it wouldn't come out clean or I would burn traces. After getting the Hakko, desoldering takes a fraction of the time and the results are clean and burn-free. |

All I know is mine worked awesome. I'll use the money I saved to buy you a beer. Heck it could be years before I need it again. https://www.amazon.com/Digital-Desoldering-Station-Anesty-Professional/dp/B07542D82F/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=1JHSO0I8HDYLE |
| Mike A:
I have some thinking to do. |
| Gilrock:
It's too late for me but if I had seen the Hakko for $200 I might have bought it. All I see on Amazon are $300 and up except one is $263 and its not Amazon Prime. |
