The base is identical to the one that came with my Weller WES51 (slightly different than what is pictured here at the time of writing this article). What am I happy about? This is a nice heavy and solid base with rubber feet. The holder is what is pictured and if it's hard to tell from the picture it's huge! I was hoping it would, but it's huge and almost gets in the way of the sponge. I'm sticking with my old basic soldering iron stand and using it for a cheap iron that I use for other jobs. Good stand, just a little bulkier than I would like.
