Spend a bit more (+/- $100) on a good Weller and you should be fine. I have used them for years and only had to replace the tip holder one time on one of them.

I use a Weller WES51, parts are available everywhere. You can also get the iron alone if it fails. I used to use a military version of an OK In- dustries station but parts were always difficult to find and eventually impossible. So that was my criterion for the new station, PARTS AVAILABILITY.
The WES51 is always on sale at MCM.

And they are cheaper for the Weller as well..I have never been thru so many tips and sleeves on a soldering iron until I bought that Hakko..I got it cheap at the AK Fest for like 76 dollars and now I know why..LOL
