Review on 🔧 Tabiger Solder Wick & Desoldering Pump Kit, Solder Sucker & Desoldering Wick, 2pcs Solder Braid (2.5mm Width, 1.5m Length)- Desoldering Vacuum Pump Solder Remover by Christopher Smith

This demolition pump works surprisingly well and is easy to use. I've used cheaper ones that work once or twice and then die or fall apart - this one seems pretty well made. The construction is all plastic with a Teflon tip and metal shaft - it's one piece and won't open for cleaning, but the solder seems to fall out immediately after use. Soaks up a good drop of solder at a time and is held in place easily with a soft foam ring. Buy this for a pump - the wick seems a bit cheap and I don't think it contains flux - I had to add flux before it would soak up solder. I had an old Radio Shack wick coil that worked much better and I was hoping it would be the same type but it doesn't work that well. However, it can be used if I add some flux to the solder I want to remove. All in all a good value pump that beats the really cheap ones but clearly doesn't compare to a good Hakko desoldering gun.
