Bill,
Absolutely bulletproof... I have owned one for over fifteen years and
have built
three K2's with it. Superb for its price point - ~$140-$150.
It is ESD safe, has over 35 different tips in the 600, 700, and 800
degree heat-range,
a quick disconnect plug for the iron on the power unit, etc... for quick
change of irons.
It seems Weller has supported them forever. Replacement parts, which I have
never needed, except for tips, are readily available from electronic
equipment suppliers.
