Greater than one weekBought this to replace the 25$ special I picked up at my local Frys Electronics. Should have bought this to begin with as it has been the most used tool in my workbench! Ive only needed the chisel tip so far. Heats up in under 30 seconds, holds heat great and works better than expected! Would buy again though I dont think mine will crap out on me any time soon!

09-06-2025I love this soldering station. What really makes it great is the assortment of tips and the range of temperatures. I use the fine tips for soldering to pads on circuit boards and the chisel tips for soldering rails on my n-scale model railroad. Ive have a number of soldering irons and stations. This is the most versatile and best of the lot. I highly recommend it.

07-06-2025Ive been using this iron for a few months now as a replacement for my old Weller, and wow, what a difference. My old iron worked, but would take a long time to heat up and had trouble holding temp. This Hakko is ready almost right away after turning it on, and seems to have no problem holding temp as I work. Im a hobbyist, but Id recommend this to anyone. Its not the cheapest iron, but I wish I would have picked this up a long time ago.

> 3 dayThe setup instructions in the manual detail how to cycle through temperature presets. However, upon following the instructions, the unit did not respond appropriately. As it turns out, the temperature presets are disabled by default and must be enabled as detailed in this YouTube video published by Hakko: [Amazon removed link, search YouTube for H5ymGXuowU8]. To eliminate all suspicion of having purchased a counterfeit product, I checked the following. The primary label on the bottom of the device is the correct width and has the appropriate safety certification markings where counterfeit devices have a smaller label with no certification markings. The stress relief on the cord where it enters the iron is made of silicone rubber -- soft and supple, unlike counterfeit devices which typically use a harder, non-supple rubber. After removing the screws and opening the main unit, I observed the device uses a small auxiliary board for the mains fuse and zenier diode where counterfeit devices incorporate this circuit into the primary circuit board. The test points for factory testing are in accordance with known Hakko standards. The device IC is not the Atmel chip typically seen in counterfeits. There are a lot of helpful guides you can Google to spot counterfeit devices and thankfully, this device is not one of them. This product included the following Hakko tips: T18-D08, T-18-D12, T18-D24, T18-D32, T18-S3. Pros: - Non counterfeit, rock solid tool that should last a lifetime - Sold by B+D Enterprises who has, for 12 months, maintained a 100% positive review rating Cons: - Ships in original product box with no tape to seal. I loathe excess packaging but be forewarned, it is blatantly obvious to all what is within this box. If your neighborhood is plagued with porch pirates, keep an eye out for this delivery. - The insulation around the connections on the transformer inside the device are scorched from excess heat, probably during manufacture. This unit likely came through the line when the factory needed increased production volume and had to hurry things along. I wouldnt mark this up as shoddy workmanship by any means but its something you shouldnt normally see. No biggie for me. Would Buy Again: Yes Would Recommend: Yes

> 3 dayJunk product, doesnt even get hot enough to melt unleaded solder in most circumstances. A cheap atten device for less than 30$ works better than this soldering iron. Very much regret the money I spent on this literal junk. A year later im still pissed a 20$ generic works better.

> 3 dayThis iron heats up really fast and makes soldering effortless The only complaint is the difficulty to change temperature.
