Bundle Includes Soldering Station and CHP170 Cutter

Works so much better than a basic soldering iron. Well worth the extra money.

This is a huge step up from the cheap soldering irons. I do a lot of soldering work, and if you do the same, then this product is well worth it. It makes a tremendous difference.

not a single complaint.

I love Hakko Products been using them for years with fantastic results!

Excellent product, exceeded my expectations!!!

The Ferrari of solders Great for home use

I bought the Hakko FX888-D but sent it back because the controls are very frustrating. I then bought the Weller WESD51. It is much much easier to change settings on, I didnt even need to look at the manual. The on/off switch on the Weller is on the front panel, whereas the Hakko is around the side. The Weller is just laid out better, and easier to use, which is important because I change my temps allot. Also the Weller tips appear to have better plating, and just appear a bit more durable. I liked the Hakko, and would probably have kept it, but the poor user interface was just too hard to deal with. If Hakko can rethink the user interface problem, I think it will be a great product.

I was very hesitant to spend this kind of money. However, I have a lot of LED outdoor lights to solder, and the snap connectors seldom work, my old soldering gun didnt get hot enough, it would take a long time to get the solder to stick. With this little unit, it make soldering fun again. I never thought the difference would be this great, but it really is. Considering the cost of the unit vs. my time/frustration, this unit has paid for itself, and its only been used a couple of times!

Unbelievable soldering station. I use it primarily for automotive electrical work and it has never failed me once. Heats up nearly instantly and produces the highest quality work. One of my favorite tools. I used the soldering guns from the big box stores for years and they all broke, took time to heat up and were difficult to use. This soldering station is an absolute pleasure.

Instantly made go from really crappy solder skills to mediocre solder skills! Heats up fast, digital controls for more bling, solid stand. Whats not to love? Dont skimp on a cheap iron, especially if you are wanting to improve your skills. With a good iron youll find yourself wanting to use it more.
