I wanted a gun that would deliver the heat quickly. This gun has two ranges and the high range is what I was looking for. It delivers what it advertises. It holds the heat to the solders melting point. There was no overheating or burnt material. It also has two lamps by the trigger to illuminate the job in weak light. I am very satisfied with this soldering gun, it functions well and has a real nice balance when working.

This soldering gun is a classic, and constitutes an example of a great tool that has NOT been replaced with a cheaper-to-produce but inferior product. The modern guns are as good as those I used when I was a boy 40 years ago. I recently purchased this one to (finally) replace a lower wattage pencil soldering iron I've been putting up with for years after my first Weller gun broke. This gun has all the heat I need and then some. There is nothing more frustrating than sitting and sitting while waiting for some twisted wires to finally get hot enough to melt the solder. With the 550 that wait time is only about 10-15 seconds for your typical 12 or 14 gauge stranded wire (such as you find in larger circuits in cars). It helps to use the thinner 1.0 mm gauge rosin core solder of course. Now that I have this gun I feel like I'm set for another 20 years of use.

Really like the soldering Gun. I bought this to replace an older lower wattage (standard one) weller that no longer works. Wish the case had a bit more storage for a real reel of solder, etc. Nice for heavier work, but not so nice for fine electronic work.
I would recomend this.
