I'm actually in the market for an iron - anyone know how these Tenma units measure up against the big names like Weller or Hakko?

They're like Black and Decker vs DeWalt or Porter Cable, I guess.  A decent tool for the money but I wouldn't want to depend on it if I were using it professionally.

I have the Tenma Digital model. It does its job very well.
