Greater than one weekSwitched to this iron after having issues with 2 different Weller irons. Have had zero issues, it heats very fast and holds temp perfectly. The user interface is not an issue for me, and I do use the presets quite often. Highly recommend this iron.

> 3 dayI like these units. I bought two of them. One of the cheapest from Hakko. We use Hakko a lot at work, but the more expensive models. One thing that I miss about the bigger units, is power. Sometime I find my self using both irons on one side of a given component, specially on PCBs that are multi layer and with a lot of copper. Another advantage from the other type of units sold by hakko, is that the tips for this unit are not very expensive. Like 4USD vs 15USD of the ones that have the heating element with the tip. But because this unit does not have the sleep functionality you need to be very careful of not leaving the iron on or you will spend more on tips. I would definitively recommend this for small to medium projects. But their higher wattage units, the ones with interchangable tips, rule for more mass intensive jobs.

> 3 dayI am a novice but this is great. My solder joints are shiny and smooth. What a difference from the simple wands that I have used before. Even for repair of circuits or instead of a reflow oven for small circuits like LED drivers.

> 3 dayAwesome soldering station! I was a little concerned that it might be a counterfeit because of the low price. I disassembled the unit to verify the markings on the pcb, everything checks out.

> 3 dayYes its a soldering station and boy does it ever solder. Pretty much the cheap end of what actually solders electronics well. Have successfully built two arduino kit project without issues.
