YIHUA 926 III 60W Digital Display Soldering Iron Station Kit w 2 Helping Hands, 6 Extra Iron Tips, Lead-Free Solder, Solder Sucker, S/S Tweezers, °C/ºF Conversion, Auto Sleep & Calibration Support

I bought this soldering kit having literally no experience with soldering before. My goal was pretty specific: I wanted to try and fix some old Game Boy cartridges that had stopped working.The iron itself was straightforward to figure out. I really liked the temperature dial, it heated up super fast, so I wasn't waiting around forever. Following some guides I found on YouTube, I was actually able to successfully swap out the batteries on a couple of my games and fix a speaker on my Gameboy Color. For someone who's never done this, getting it to work felt like a huge win, and this kit had most of the core tools I needed to get the job done.My only small complaints are about a couple of things not included. It would have been really convenient if a basic multimeter came with it, just to check voltages and confirm connections, especially when learning. I ended up buying one separately, which wasn't a huge deal. Also, it came with a neat little syringe applicator, which I assume is for liquid flux, but there wasn't any actual liquid flux in the kit. Again, not a dealbreaker, but something I'll have to pick up if I need it for future projects.Pros:Very user-friendly, great for beginners.Temperature control is easy to use and heats up quickly.Contained the necessary tools to complete my initial project (Game Boy game battery & GBC speaker swap).Good value for getting started with soldering.Cons:Does not include a multimeterComes with a syringe for liquid flux, but doesn't include the flux itself.

Got it to fix the power switch on my old NDSL, the various tips it provided helped a lot in the process. I was able to solder the switch on but unfortunately there's something else wrong with the NDSL =(Anyway a great product that worth the value, easy to use and heats super fast. I wish they include a solder flux as well though

This is a decent soldering station. It heats up fast and maintains temperature just fine. I think some of the problems people are running into and something I experienced is the solder that comes with it is not very good. It requires a lot of heat and I found it impossible to solder ground connections to chassis on what I was working on. I switched to some solder I already had and it worked fine and I was able to use a lower heat setting.I think it is a great value for the money but the solder it comes with is not the best quality.

I want everyone to know that I have had to replace this soldering iron... FINALLY! It has been a workhorse for me and I don't mind paying the money all over again. This iron has very easy to meet standards as far as solder and flux are concerned and it will take just about anything you throw at it and keep going. It has been my go to iron for a long time and I'm happy to replace it with the exact same one. Trust me... it I needed more than one I'd buy more but I just don't and this one works so well that I can't see having two of them at the same time. So off I go to enjoy soldering with my best friend in the soldering business.

You get a lot for your money. With all the extra tips, soldier sucker, tweezers, extra set of hands & more. The adjustable temperature control is a plus.

Works very good, has many accessories

I'm glad I purchased this soldering iron. I have used it a few times and it holds temps and heats up FAST. My kid who is a beginner at soldering used it too and had no issues. It happened that the Spring Sale was going on when I needed a soldering station.

Good overall. Especially for the hobbiest. As others mentioned, a bit slow for tip temp to reach display readout, but a minor item. Unit to tip cord a little stiff, compared to my Weller silicone equipped cable, but not a major item. Excellent price makes up for all for the non- commercial user.
