Review on 🔧 Soldering and Desoldering Aid - Width: 2.5mm, Length: 1.5m by Austin Arvayo

Good quality tools. The solder and wick that came with the kit are useless. I have found that it is impossible to make good solder with solder. As soon as you remove the heat from the solder joint, the solder immediately solidifies, producing a dull and grainy surface indicative of cold soldering. I've tried many times and couldn't make an acceptable solder joint so I had to throw it away. The soldering wick is made of copper-plated steel (see picture) and is also unusable. It soaks up excess solder on only one side and doesn't remove enough solder to replace a part on the PCB, so it ends up in the trash too. The price is only good for hand tools and both work well.
