    You're not going to hear a lot about Weller because the quality has gone down a lot.

    Weller recently had a few models that had very poor quality, the forums are full of complaints.

    One very advanced model they made recently was basically so bad they pulled it from market after only sending a few units to some stores as demo models. I think the only stuff available is basically revision 2.

    There's better value for money, there's Pace, there's JBC, there's Metcal, there's Ersa.. and there's some other new company these days that took advantage of some expired patents of Metcal I think to make some soldering stations that are very good... but I just can't remember the name now.

        we are running a trial period on HAKKO FX100 to understand the real value and performance
        trial user type is electronic manufacturing so we can get feedback on both quaility and tips durability
        so far is good and the boost function is really appreciated

        if you like Metcal go for original and genuine accessories, we got some bad feedback on thermaltronics tips

        any question, ask!

              Got very old microsolder for 200 CZK on a market, only need new weller tips for that I think it will be good for some time.

              But anyway, why exactly should I buy some chinese whatever for over 100 bucks when I can get quality czech digital one for less, from manufacturer which makes them for decades? If it was 50 bucks incl. everything than its a good deal, for that price it is one of many.
