Weller is a great name. I have used other controlled weller stations for 20 yrs HOWEVER this one is total garbage. The unit gets too hot. The tip is huge . the base gets hot... I ended up going to radio shack and buying one of their 20.00 stations to complete my laptop repairs..Buyer beware total junk...
Good ValueAugust 30, 2008 Had one of these before and used for about 4 years. Let someone borrow it and came back with bad heating element. The first one was a Christmas gift from boss so, this is first one I paid for. Great price for length of time it lasts. I used every day in TV repair and only had to change tips every few months (4-6). Or, different tips for different types of components. You will be happy you chose this item.

A very good station. I found that 75-80% heat works best for most of my electrical needs. I use low-medium heat for shrinking heat-shrink tubing.
Weller 40 watts soldering stationJuly 4, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It is a simple but a very good product. It uses the same iron tips that others professional models of weller so you can chose between fat or narrow models and the power is good for the most for applications

I purchased this needing to do a very delicate (several hour long) solder job, and I needed more than just the little handheld I keep around the house. I used to work professionally in the electronics repair business, but had long since gotten rid of my tools.
This is a very well built soldering station that really holds up. If you are a beginner or professional, you will appreciate the ease of use and nice soldering this station allows you to do. The temperature control makes it great for a multitude of projects.
In short, don't be fooled by the low price. This station will perform as well as any $100.00+ unit out there.
