Bundle Includes Soldering Station and CHP170 Cutter

Best of the best! Worth the investment. Easy to switch out tips. Warms up fast, cools down slowly. Wish mine came with the side clips... was left out of the package for some reason.

Joy to use, great little setup, have used to solder several projects, very happy with this iron.

This solder is an absolute beast! It heats up almost instantly, has a ton of tip options, and looks really cool as well. It isnt too too easy to do temperature changes (a dial would be easier) but it still works quite well. The iron stand is very robust and well designed as well. I have used Weller solder stations prior to getting this unit and I had no idea what I was missing! I am very pleased with my purchase and will never use a Weller unit again!

It heat and regulates extremely quickly. All the parts are very good quality. The only downside is the clunky user interface. Id buy this again if I needed another. I set it and forget it, so the UI isnt that big a deal.

This Hakko soldering station is such an upgrade from my other pencil and gun soldering tools. Couldnt be happier with this purchase. The ability to quickly change soldering temps is great. It is just nice to have a soldering tool that works well in many different situations. Changing tips is a breeze. I read some complaints about the programming of the preset temps but the fault lies in the manual structure. Once you read the fine print the programming is simple enough. No regrets on purchasing this Hakko and looking forward to years of quality service.

Ive gotten by in a work environment using $30 Radio Shack 30 watt soldering irons for almost 15 years. If had known what I was missing, I would have upgraded sooner. Instead of minutes to warm up, were talking seconds! I used to leave my iron on all day, ***now I can turn it on and off as needed***, thats my favorite upgrade! Instead of a tippy, mostly plastic stand, this thing is made with what feels like cast iron, its substantially weighted. You could easily knock out an intruder with the heft of either the stand or the base station, its that heavily planted, like they took a weight plate from a fitness center and turned it into this! I was very surprised at how much it literally is built like an armored tank, I had no idea that they would still make things this robustly. The digital readout is very nice, shows you how fast it is heating up, which for me has been about 20 seconds. Fast enough that when I turn it on, then start setting up my work pieces, its already ready to go. The tip is light years beyond the old Radio Shack iron, which needed new tips fairly quickly. I would have gone through several tips while this one is still looking brand new. That alone is worth the upgrade, it will pay for itself soon enough. Bottom line for me is Im never going back, I just went from toys to a real tool. Do yourself a favor, buy this for yourself and say Merry Christmas to me every time you use it!

Great soldering iron. Heats up super quick. Compact and simple. I pack it up and easily take it to the rc track all the time.

Works well but would suggest getting the extra 12 pack of tips with it. If you are not careful you can burn the tip pretty quickly.

Really good product... Only had it a couple days, would like to see how it holds in a couple years, but sturdy and dynamic, I like it... Pliers arent bad either

I am very happy with my purchase of this iron I ordered a cheaper one and after the first use it was useless and ended up ordering this as its highly recommend for hobby soldering electronics. The cutters are absolutely amazing for small cutting around circuit boards.
