I'm a diehard Weller user and I agree - I think the Hakkos are a good increment better - they've taken the basic functionality of the Weller and refined it, the handpiece is smaller, etc., and they're used in production work so they're good instruments. 73 de Alex NS6Y

Any opinions about the model 936 Hakko soldering station...any better
recommendations?

--------------------------------

It's a great soldering station. I've had one for several years. I especially like being able to adjust the temperature with a knob on the front panel. Lots of heat output: comes up to full temperature from cold very fast and
the temp remains constant in spite of the soldering activity.

The only real competition I know of are the Wellers. After using it for a
few years I'll take the Hakko over a Weller any day.
