Works well. Much better than my hakko 801
5.0
The FM204-1 has a very capable vacuum and quick heating tips. The disposable filters are nice as well. Make sure you buy extra filters as they will clog up ad become un-cleanable over time.

I love this product!
5.0
After years of suffering through crappy Radio Shack junk soldering guns and desoldering pencils with resultant ruined PCBs with lifted traces from overheating, I finally came across this product. Although I did not buy mine from this dealer (I got it used on eBay) it has become one of my favorite devices. I have been working on older 80s PCBs for pinball machines and the desoldering 2024 gun is perfect. I keep the temp about 660 degrees, no lifted traces or destroyed PCBs with use. I have been using the 1.6 mm nozzle. The 2027 soldering pen also works very well and I have tried several tips for it, mostly chisel tips. I have been impressed with the build quality, love the fact that this model has built in compressor for suction for desoldering and only wish it had two built in ports so I could keep the 2024 and 2027 plugged in concurrently. The price on this unit is right also. Getting the FM203 and FM205 to work with the 2024 requires shop air so this unit is more portable. It will apparently not work with the hot tweezers however. Strongly recommended.

Hakko FM204-01 Desoldering station is great
5.0
Upgraded from an Ayoue 474 and I really can tell the difference.
The FM-204 is a great device, heats quickly with good temp control, works on multi-layer boards, doesn't overheat and cause traces to lift off.
It is easier to clean and much faster to warm-up than any other desoldering station I have tried.
I have no reservations recommending this unit.
