    Customers find the soldering station easy to assemble. They say it makes the job a lot more easier, and is much easier to use and safer. They also say it's a great starting kit, and the fitment is tight, but nice to work with.

    "...It is indeed basic. Which is a plus in my view...." Read more

    "...It seems sturdy enough and is easy to set up. The iron tip rests against a metal inner spring and I would rather have it not be touching anything...." Read more

    69 customers mention21 positive48 negative

    Customers are mixed about the size of the soldering station. Some mention that it fits fine, takes up little space on their work bench, and is a great size for using in classrooms. However, others say that it's way smaller than the well provided, the sponge is able to fit, and the nut base is too small for what it'll hold down.

    "...Some have commented on the small sponge. It is small, but I found it to be perfectly adequate as well...." Read more

    "...my first reaction was, "You get what you pay for." The sponge seemed small and extremely thin, and it didn't look very sturdy...." Read more

    "...The throat is deep and smooth so your iron will probably fit very well. All mine do, including woodburners with the discus heat shields...." Read more

    "...The holder mounts to the base with a small single screw and tiny wing nut. Makes me wish I had kept my soldering iron holder from the 1960's...." Read more

    118 customers mention31 positive87 negative

    Customers are dissatisfied with the weight of the soldering station. They mention that it is light weight and not very stable when the solders iron is in it. They also say that the product could use more weight at the bottom and that the base is a little on the light side.

    "...Like some others have mentioned, the base IS light-weight and would NOT support the weight of my standard-sized soldering iron...." Read more

    "This product is very light and when it arrived the inner coil had detached from the outer one...." Read more

    "the holder was light, we attached a weight to the bottom and it works great." Read more

    "The product is light weight and isn't very stable when the solder iron is in it. The inside coil wire also will come loose...." Read more

    Customers find the sponge included with the soldering station to be useless and anemic at best. They also say the set up of the sponge is lame and cheesy.

    "...that is supposed to help hold the spring assembly in place does not do its job very well...." Read more

    "...base UP HIGH enough for you to be able to wipe your tip easily... SPONGE IS FLAT! It is NOT LIKE THE PHOTO!..." Read more

    "...The sponge is more absorbent than it looks, the balance is better than I expected, and has held up to regular use quite well so far...." Read more

    Stand Is Unstable & Not Sturdy For Heavy Corded Irons
    This stand is alright for the price, but the stability and fitment is a slight issue. If your iron has a thicker cord it can pull the iron down and create a gap that can make it easy to fall out. Mine has this issue and it is not the best for my needs, but I manage with it by tying the cord off and not letting it hang.Pros:Decent PriceSolid ConstructionDecent QualityCons:Fitment Issue With IronNot Too StableSpring Isn't As Solid As It Should Be3/5 As the fitment is a huge issue. If the Iron can fall out and that is a problem.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Good Deal, Great Quality, & Holds 3 Different Irons I Have Securely
    Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2013
    A real decent iron holder. Has a double spring which certainly helps to hold the iron securely without any hangups, and keeps the outer spring cool, unlike the single spring cheepo ones.

    The only issue I found was that the base tended to slide around pretty easily when you'd want it to stay put. I easily remedied that with some 1/8 inch x 1-1/4 inch dense foam tape. I cut a piece for each side of the base, stuck it on, and wrapped it under. The foam contacts the work surface and it stays put.

    It only moves when I pick it up and move it. I also bent out each side of the base about 1/4 inch to give it a bigger footprint, it won't tip over. I didn't knock off any stars for doing these mods. There easy fixes anyone can do. A great buy at $6.00 and great quality. I'd buy it again if needed.
