Hello Ron,
thank you anyway that Photo is just an example there is a vast array makes and models forsale and before I spend money on a unit, I want to make sure I don't buy a piece of junk.

I worked with an AOYUE for over 6 years and it seemed to have had everything we needed. Has a lot of accessories. Nowadays they even have a vacuum pump for quickly removing solder. I think you can get a good one for $150-$200.
