Review on ๐Ÿ”ฅ Advanced Electronics Soldering Iron with Adjustable Temperature - Model 19 by Josh Schaefer

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The set is good, but the soldering iron is rubbish

I bought it for my husband (at his request, having studied them all), and after several uses the soldering iron stopped working on works. The problem is that the heating element is connected to the handle. There is a thin metal ring next to the plastic and then metal screws go through the plastic to hold the pieces together. The metal ring heats up, which heats the screws, melts the plastic housing and breaks the heated tip/shank/element. My husband said everything else in the set was great, it's just a shame that an item has to work and the whole sense of a baby doesn't. 3 stars because all the other addons are good and worth their price but the main article didn't even make it through the project.

Pros
  • Welding and soldering
Cons
  • The cable is shorter than other master keys
