Really like this weller we1010 soldering station the base is heavy and to me heavy usually means quality the iron itself is light and feels right in my hand and the lead is silicone and flexible not stiff and constantly in the way like some others it heats up quickly and its easy to operate it doesn't have hundreds of complicated functions just temperature ... delay ... standoff and that's all you really need i highly recommend buying one

I've been using Weller products at work for many years and recently bought this for home use. As a solder station, it works as well as I've come to expect from Weller. However, the base unit has a very strong chemical smell which has spread throughout my flat. This is not the smell you briefly get from new bits, but a really pungent, sharp smell. I eventually tracked the source of the smell in my flat to the solder station, and it seems to be the blue plastic cover itself. At the moment, the whole base unit is sealed inside a plastic bag - I can either use the iron and get gassed, or seal it up and live! A bit of googling shows that this not a unique problem, from users in the UK and US. It seems to be stations marked "Made in Mexico", but that might apply to all Weller products - I don't know. So far, the only solution seems to be leave it on a mountain top for a month to see if the smell clears!Read full review

The product is robust and efficient - a quality item - it toggles between idle and temp setting geared by frequency of applying it and to what grade (thickness) of material. This part takes practice and can seem like a fault at first familiarisation. Despite the lcd screen and no backlight (surely for the money an led is possible!!) seems already like it will keep going on for many years.

Great Iron, Heats up quickly, Heat control very responsive and built in power off feature. Only owned it a month.. Hoping that it lasts longer than my previous irons "China" that only lasted One/Two years.
