Hakko FX601-02 Adjustable Temperature Controlled Soldering Iron, 67 Watts

My husband is a hobby stained “glasser” and really liked this Hakko soldering iron. What a disappointment for him that it broke after 2 month use. The heating element is burned out. He didn’t do anything damaging to it, only normal hobby use. For the price we were expecting a better product!!!

Well made, heats up very quickly.

I got this to replace my old Hakko 455 which wasnt doing well for really big jobs. The Hakko FX601-02 is wonderful. Just like my old 455 but much more powerful, and built-in temperature control.

This iron heats up fast, is light weight and has temp control. Its great.

After one hour of use for a stained glass project, the thing turned itself off, never to reheat again! Very disappointed because I heard this was an excellent iron. Fortunately, the vendor was very cooperative and I received a full refund without any problems. I bought the Weller iron/rheostat instead..

This was supposed to be the 601-602 which would include 2 tips sized but only received the 601 model with the smaller tip. I’ll have to spend another 18.00 for the 1/4in tip

Works very well. It does have to be retinned frequently, but it holds its heat. Also very lightweight, which is a plus when you are using it for hours on end. Cant beat it for the price.

Best iron there is. This one has a fat tip!

Great product

I absolutely love this soldering iron. I have small arthritic hands and it is small in your palm and has a short barrel so easy to control!
