Review on πŸ”₯ High Temperature Soldering Iron Kit for Efficient Desoldering by Mario Beaklini

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Worst soldering iron ever

The tools that come with it are half decent but the case is really nice. BUT, the iron, especially the tips, are HORRIBLE - save your money and buy Weller or a famous brand - you will have a horrible experience and think you are an idiot who can't solder a wire. For a beginner, this will be daunting at best. The tips are not properly pre-tinned and the solder is not pierced. I wasn't able to get the solder to stick to a tip at all. If you can't prepare the tip, you can't solder. Tried a second tip and managed to solder about half of it and also managed to solder a wire I bought it for. Also for the electronics - buy some good quality 60/40 Kester RC solder. What a waste of time. Crazy about myself. Hope this saves someone else the trouble.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • boring packaging
