Not fit for purpose 0 stars
Tip lasted all of 3 solders then warped and ceased heating up properly leaving me a knackered 10 pound Anderson connector which I’ll have to replace at my expense (thanks B&Q) returned to store the following day and told staff how poor it was but they said they will continue selling it! Despite my pointing out the other negative review and issues others have experienced. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY

Not fit for purpose
After less then a weeks use the bit burnt away - looks like the forked tongue of a snake! Went into my local B&Q store and was told that they don't sell replacement bits. Less then a weeks use and I'm left with a useless iron. DO NOT BUY!

Useless product
Product lasts less than an hour. Tip becomes coated and unable to burn solder. Complete waste of money

Useless soldering iron
I bought this soldering iron aout a year ago, and hardly used it until about a week ago. After two days of light soldering, the tip is already burnt away in parts and covered in carbon, and won't melt solder. My previous iron lasted 30 years with the same tip, slightly corroded, but still worked fine. Don't recommend this product.

Tip melts
Same as others here. Didn’t get any use out of it. This product is not fit for purpose.

Single Use Tip
The tip on this iron melts within the first half hour of use, thus rendering the tool useless unless you have spares.

Absolute junk
The tip melts, it comes with a chisel tip which is useless and it runs way to hot. This product is not fit for purpose. Even if you only need to quickly solder a couple of things for the rest of your life.. Dont buy this.
