Review on Powerful and Precise: Discover the Aoyue 852A Digital Rework Station! by Brian Krump

I've been using it for a month now and I'm very happy with this station! I just started working with SMD and this station has already enabled me to fix some bugs. Of course, if you're new to this, I recommend going to your local computer repair shop and asking them for a defective motherboard so you can practice on it. As a plus, you'll get a bunch of useful details when you're done! I found that the device itself heats up quickly. I've read other reviews that said they had trouble getting much airflow or heat out of the unit. There is a VERY WELL ATTACHED screw that must be removed before use. I had no problems with the removed screw. I wish you a lot of joy with your device and good luck!
