YIHUA 939D+ Digital Soldering Station, 75W Equivalent with Precision Heat Control (392°F to 896°F) and Built-in Transformer. ESD Safe, Lead Free with °C/°F display (Green)

This soldering iron heats up quickly and stays hot for medium to small sized soldering. I have been using this for about a year now building and reparing rc cars and fpv quadcopters. This is absolutly high enough quality for the hobbiest like me. Especially for the price. I probably used this way more than the average hobiest in that last year and I did have an issue with the handle cracking. This has a 1 year warranty so I was covered! The support through amazon was super quick and I had a new handle in a couple days. I did not know you can replace just the handle so that a plus because the handles are available here on amazon and they are very affordable as well.

This is the best soldering station I have come across for the price! The size of it isn't huge, perfect for a hobby desk. It is suitable for small wires and large; the biggest I have soldered with it is 10GA. This thing heats up fast and the tips are very durable. The small holder for the gun doesn't have the best stability, so be cautious not to tip it over.

Sweet Betty Davis.. this thing is awesome. We have the Wellers at work and they kick butt. For home I was not looking to spend that kind of $$ for a hobby station. This thing performed way beyond what I expected. It got hot quick, help the temp really well and just worked. Now will it work well all day 5 days a week like a a Weller, probably not. If you need a hardcore professional work place station, get a Weller, if not, save the $$ and get this.

The station and accessories are great, the iron/tip are just alright. It gets the job done I guess but it is no Weller that is for sure. That being said, it gets up to temperature quickly and the temp adjustment is quick and accurate. All in all I’m glad to have it

10/10 highly recommend. The product assembly was easy, the size allows you to transport it around easily, and the heating speed is almost instant. I love the accessories that was included as well. Definitely is worth the purchase.

Im -VERY- pleased with this Yihua soldering station. External & internal build quality along with performance are excellent for this price range, both cords seem good quality, (heavy) transformer puts out good power and I really appreciate the simplicity of the temperature control for the attractive blue digital display and activity LED, no complicated NASA menu to navigate just a dial control for temperature, a simple button to select C* and F* on the fly and a calibration option if needed, which I didnt need to touch - heating time is reasonably fast from cold and the iron seems to recover well during use with the basic testing I gave it before this review. Even the quality of the factory tips is much better than usual aftermarket ones of same type. Tip walls are thicker & plating seems better and it shows in the heating and recovery performance. The only negatives I can come up with is I wish the base units fuse was externally accessible, its internal with the power switch and requires soldering to replace - and the base unit needs to have grippy rubber feet like the irons stand does so it wont slide around on hard surfaces, also I wish the cord on the iron was a foot longer, but these are just my opinions. I like that the iron stand is metal with non-skid feet and comes with a tip cleaning fixture containing a (REAL BRASS) mesh ball and rosin flux tip cleaning solution in the bottom, brass is the only and (correct) mesh material for a tip cleaner as its a soft metal and wont damage the tip plating - cheaper ones are made from either copper or worse yet flash plated steel meant to look like brass, a magnet will tell you which as brass is not attracted to a magnet. Overall im still very pleased, I got the green and black "20th anniversary" edition just for the added color instead of just another black box on the table, the green case looks great with the black brushed aluminum face plate. It would be hard to do much better for the price far as performance and build quality, Yihua quality and performance have come a long way in the last few years and the attention to engineering detail shows in the products performance, build quality and value. There many options in this price range and some are also pretty good, but Yihua has obviously worked to make a good name for itself in the best ways possible - by paying attention to the most important areas - product quality, performance, continued improvement, value and im guessing they also listen to customers comments and reviews, if so it shows. Based on my initial experience this product is a solid performer, as always time will tell on longevity but ive found nothing in my examination of build quality to say it wont last a good long time and one last important thing - Yihua has very good parts availabilty, many do not. You will be hard pressed to go wrong buying this one, its a winner.

I've only used this once, but it performed flawlessly. I've put off buying this type of soldering iron for many years because I didnt think I'd use it that often. But the times I DID need to solder, my old irons just wouldnt cut it. The main problem was that they too forever to heat up, and even then they werent hot enough at times. So I bought this unit and it heats up fast and holds the heat where you set it. This was a frustration buy that I should have bought years ago.

The item appears to be well made. Heats up fast. Best sized soldering pencil i have had. Cleaning station is a great help. Only complaint is short power cord, but that's why they make extension cords.

I can’t believe I spent so much money on this product thinking it would be fine. I don’t recommend this, don’t buy it. It looks premium but performance wise terrible. It stopped working after my return window closed so i can’t even get a refund.

As advertised, this soldering station is heavy, similar to my old Weller that just died after 30 years. It works well. I like the way the LED blinks when it's heating up and solid when it reached the set temperature, you quickly know when it's ready. The only drawback is you can't store the bits in the holes provided in the iron stand. They'll fall off. I wanted to enlarge the holes but the bits don't have flange, so it won't work anyway.

This has a US electrical supply only 110 Volts 60Hz not suitable for use in the UK. Not just a case of changing the plug unfortunately. Very disappointing as bought as a Christmas present. The power supply rating was not in the product description so expected that as it was sold on Amazon UK that it would be compatible with UK electrical systems. The product information omitted the voltage and Hertz rating. Given 1 star because of the fact that we were unable to test it because of the voltage issue.

The plug fitted is a US plug. Not a simple case of changing the plug as the input AC voltage is 110v and not 230v as in the UK. Why the seller is sending these out to the UK is beyond me. Completely useless here.
