Pleasant Surprise October 10, 2008

I was sceptical at first. I didn't think that something priced so affordable could possibly work as well as higher priced units. I ordered a Hakko 808-KIT because of the reviews that were posted on several web sites not just this one. I was totally amazed at what the Hakko 808 could do. It works better than anything I could hope for. I also got a pleasant surprise when I got the Hakko 808-KIT. It included spare filters and other replacement parts that will be needed after normal use. It also contained cleaning pins for the heating element and the nozzle. The Hakko 808 would be worth it at 2 or 3 times the price.

It's very easy to use, but be careful don't touch the board because of the high temperature

I have used tons of solder suckers, and for the past 15 years, a Pace MBT-200 soldering/desoldering station. The Pace worked for a lot of years but always needed a lot of maintenance. It was ok but I always had a feeling there must be something better. It was what my boss bought so I was grateful just to have one. I've been having a hard time finding tips lately, so I decided to look for a station for myself. After reading a ton of reviews I bought this Hakko 808 and I got to say, i must've been living in a closet. This thing is absolutely the best. I have it on the temp setting from the factory which is kinda midway and with the tip that it came with and it cleaned up all the mess of a board that the pace couldn't handle. nice clean holes. I guess there could be better, but this is best in class for me. a bonus is, it's portable. I would definitely take it out in the field. It is kinda expensive at $159(free shipping from amazon) just for a desolderer. but, i just did 10 holes in one pass in like 30 seconds. definitely a lifestyle changer, a stress reliever. nah, but i really do enjoy using it. i hate to say it sucks, but it sucks good! if you're like i was and can't make up your mind btwn the cheap one at that other site and the Hakko 808 at amazon. don't eat lunch for a month and buy the Hakko!!
