It's a step up.
3 of 7 found this helpful I've been using the all plastic solder pumps for years, never liked them much either. I then discovered this, from the videos and reviews it seems like an improvement from the plastic ones.
Quality-wise it is a well built piece of kit. Functionally, I find there's a few problems with it. Does it suck? Yes it sucks up the solder. But the problem I find is when sucking up large bits of solder, the solder cools down too quick inside the nozzle and becomes stuck. Even the built-in self cleaning system cannot push it out. Sometimes I have to really force the pump down to push out solder, sometimes this is impossible and I have to use a drill bit to loosen up the solder inside the nozzle then push out and remaining solder. This becomes quite annoying.
It is good for small solder points, anything larger I'd recommend a proper desoldering station, which I have just ordered. I currently have a pcb board with over 250 points to desolder and this little thing just won't do.
