Brass for cleaning the tip of the iron.

I'm guessing you are referring to the piece under the solder pen holder?

Stick the tip of the pen in there to clean excess solder off

Cry once, buy once. 888D, Met Cal, Thermal Tronics. Not sure why you'd buy something like this guy. I guess ok if your going to solder once a year or something.

They are saying buy a better more expensive (plus more options) unit...

Agree. If you solder on a regular basis - do yourself a favor and get something better.
Personally, I use Weller WE1010NA.

IMO for a China knockoff this is not a deal. likefastcars is right, get a safe brand to do soldering and don't risk your electronics/sanity.

Been using a 170usd JBC knockoff that takes genuine JBC tips. 2 years still going strong, use it everyday. Very happy.

This seems like a perfectly capable unit. One review claimed it doesn't take standard size tips but I don't know if that's true.

For me at any level or frequency of soldering, the Hakko FX888D is the way to go. I love that iron. I love how well it works, but I love that it is ready to go in a few seconds.Only very minor thing I do not like it the colors. It looks like Fisher Price like my first soldering iron. Other then that, it is great and well worth the money.

Isn't the Pinecil from pine64 better than most of these other options?

Because $33 dollars versus over a hundred? I dunno.

Soldering station - used to...solder? Making wire repairs for cuts in the wire, certain connectors require soldering, using bread boards and making your own electronic devices...removing or repairing blown capacitors on electronics. I mean there are uses, but your average person wouldn't have a clue. Personally I prefer soldered wire connections over connections made with crimps in most applications. Especially applications where moisture or corrosion might be a potential issue.
