YIHUA 939D+ Digital Soldering Station, 75W Equivalent with Precision Heat Control (392°F to 896°F) and Built-in Transformer. ESD Safe, Lead Free with °C/°F display (Green)

Im -VERY- pleased with this Yihua soldering station. External & internal build quality along with performance are excellent for this price range, both cords seem good quality, (heavy) transformer puts out good power and I really appreciate the simplicity of the temperature control for the attractive blue digital display and activity LED, no complicated NASA menu to navigate just a dial control for temperature, a simple button to select C* and F* on the fly and a calibration option if needed, which I didnt need to touch - heating time is reasonably fast from cold and the iron seems to recover well during use with the basic testing I gave it before this review. Even the quality of the factory tips is much better than usual aftermarket ones of same type. Tip walls are thicker & plating seems better and it shows in the heating and recovery performance. The only negatives I can come up with is I wish the base units fuse was externally accessible, its internal with the power switch and requires soldering to replace - and the base unit needs to have grippy rubber feet like the irons stand does so it wont slide around on hard surfaces, also I wish the cord on the iron was a foot longer, but these are just my opinions. I like that the iron stand is metal with non-skid feet and comes with a tip cleaning fixture containing a (REAL BRASS) mesh ball and rosin flux tip cleaning solution in the bottom, brass is the only and (correct) mesh material for a tip cleaner as its a soft metal and wont damage the tip plating - cheaper ones are made from either copper or worse yet flash plated steel meant to look like brass, a magnet will tell you which as brass is not attracted to a magnet. Overall im still very pleased, I got the green and black "20th anniversary" edition just for the added color instead of just another black box on the table, the green case looks great with the black brushed aluminum face plate. It would be hard to do much better for the price far as performance and build quality, Yihua quality and performance have come a long way in the last few years and the attention to engineering detail shows in the products performance, build quality and value. There many options in this price range and some are also pretty good, but Yihua has obviously worked to make a good name for itself in the best ways possible - by paying attention to the most important areas - product quality, performance, continued improvement, value and im guessing they also listen to customers comments and reviews, if so it shows. Based on my initial experience this product is a solid performer, as always time will tell on longevity but ive found nothing in my examination of build quality to say it wont last a good long time and one last important thing - Yihua has very good parts availabilty, many do not. You will be hard pressed to go wrong buying this one, its a winner.

I have purchased 4 of these Yihua 939D+ soldering stations as of now. One for my personal use and three for a local maker space. They are all well-built, easy to use soldering stations. They heat up fast and hold heat well. They use easy to obtain 900 M style soldering tips. The metal soldering iron holder is great. It comes with a can that has a brass wool ball and rosin in it. Keeps the tip nice and clean.The knob makes adjusting the temperature a snap. The simple button on the front panel to switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius is convenient.The price point is only about $10 to $15 above the price of the cheap soldering stations while the quality is much higher. The difference in price (about the cost of two cups of coffee or a meal at a fast food restaurant) is well worth it.

Very nice well built product. Easy to setup and use. Temp control seems accurate and stable. Heats fairly quickly. Iron uses standard tips so generic replacement should be easy.

Absolutely worth the money, and works well. The station and components do seem a little cheaper compared to Hakko stations. But, the price here is like a third of the Hakko … so I genuinely feel like there’s great value here. I’ve had this station now for a year, and it works just like it should every time. Granted, I only use it sparingly with my guitars’ electronics. It’s not like I’m using mine every day on projects or work. The last benefit I found was that this package had pretty much everything you need all in one box. The only other item I purchased for soldering not found here was copper wick - and that’s just a nice-to-have item and not a necessity.

Great price fast delivery

I used this to repair the circuit board on my garage door opener. It performed perfectly. De-soldering and wondering were a breeze. Nice selection of tips. Iron holder is very stable; won’t tip over. I’m very pleased.

It holds a good heat level, it's iron holder is safe, the tip-cleaner works like a charm, and it's super consistent. I solder guitar wiring together and this soldering iron is bedroom safe (just have a fan and a window open).
