Pros & Cons
Pros
The aoyue 852a has a pump pulling air from the suction tool assembly. If you're doing smd soldering with solder paste, it's very easy to just hold the component with tweezers.
Highlights
Quality
The automated cooldown and shut off are a good safety feature
This unit works great and comes with a nice selection of nozzles
The build quality is clunky and the c on the digital display turns to an l every once in a while
The suction tool is useless just remove it

Didnt have to open the box because it fell apart
Didnt come with square model as in the picture
Competitiveness
This model is very similar to the one we use daily in the lab at work so i bought one for home use
The aoyue 852a has been demonstrated online to stand up from a performance perspective to both of the previous mentioned hot air stations
I purchased a different hot air station before this one one of those with the fan in the handle
This unit does a better job at 350 than the other one did turned the whole way up

I may just upgrade the transformer because it makes a loud 60hz hum even when everything is off as is pictured
