This product is consistent. When I turn it on and set the heat, it works the way it should every time.

Excellent soldering iron. July 14, 2010

I've really enjoyed using this iron. My old iron was inexpensive and I got by with it, but it really wasn't suitable for my current project. I am building several prototype circuits for a ham radio project. I needed something smaller with temperature control. The WES51 is very comfortable to handle and very light. It warms up quickly and holds it's temperature. Depending on the variety of work you anticipate doing, you may need extra tips. I ordered an extra tip for really small work, but I will need a larger tip as well.

Everything about this soldering station says "quality" so you can't go wrong here whether it's for hobby or pro use. Very fast tip temperature recovery, wide selection of great quality tips, and it's nice having a cord that won't melt through if it happens to drape over the iron for an instant (silicon sheath). The cord is also very flexible so it doesn't kink or bind during use.
Came with a 1/16" conical tip which is too big for anything SMD, so I ordered some 1/32" tips to go with it.
The station has a lock-out feature to fix the temperature such that the adjustment knob will not change it. This requires a magnetic lockout pencil to fix the temperature, but it isn't included in the box. You can use any rare-earth magnet instead however, so it's no big deal.
