I don't have any experience with this particular model and it might be okay for light use. But generally speaking I recommend avoiding cheap soldering irons and just go for a Hakko or a Weller.

I like your advice, except it is outdated. There are a new class of soldering irons that are revolutionary. I have been soldering for over 50 years, so I would not say that unless I meant it. I have a Pinecil and I highly recommend you try it. I have been using a Weller and Hakko otherwise for the last 50 years and completely moved over to the Pinecil.

These are fine, not the best by any means, but will get any normal job accomplished. Perfect if you only do a few small repairs a year. If you're going to use daily spend some more. For $30 hard to beat

I have a pinecil too and I recommend it. I use it over my Weller 99% of the time.

Is the Pinecil similar to the ts-100?

I have a good soldering iron. Would this be worth it and good for the rework function?

FYI if you see a higher price, the $29.99 is Prime members only

I just got a Pinecil today after seeing it recommended in another thread here. I am a first time solderer and just want to learn how to do some hobbyist stuff such as LEDs and some craft kits. Do you have any video/website recommendations on tips or taking care of the tool? Thanks in advance

Looks really close to this one, I think the $60 is probably pretty inflated

How is the hot air on this? Most hot air alone cost more than this combo, surely it can't be of any quality?

I read that as "pencil" both times….

Likely worth it for the rework air gun but not a killer deal. I have a similarly cheap setup. The iron on mine is poor. It's power adjustable but not temperature regulated (no thermistor in the tip). Since I bought it for the air gun and already own proper irons that's not a big issue for me.

Hot air rework stations are really nice to have if you ever need to remove a soldered part or if you want to shrink some heat shrink tubing.

I agree with others that the traditional Hakko or Weller stations or the newer Pinecil, ts-100 etc irons are also great options and almost certainly better than this.

So, decent deal for the air gun. Probably not a good iron.
