Tools and Hardware Reviews of Solder SuckerCustomer Review: Button stopped working after less than 10 uses Summary: 1 Stars
The product looks nice, metal barrel, nice color.
However the quality of the mechanism is very poor.
The sliding barrel slides ok but not very smoothly.
The trigger button which is supposed to lock the barrel
stopped working after literally 10 uses and no longer
locks the barrel at all.
Very disappointed - this product is going back.
Customer Review: Cheap Summary: 1 Stars
I should have known his thing would be cheap for $5. I used it once and went to unscrew the nose piece to remove the solder. The nose piece shot out of my hand across the room. The nose piece and blue body are both a soft aluminum with a fairly fine thread. The threads on this unit were cross threaded as received. Now the nose piece won't even stay on. So much for that.
Customer Review: Couldn't get it to work Summary: 1 Stars
I've tried about 20 times and never had it suck any solder.
I'm not very good at this, so I asked my friend who is an electrical engineer and builds circuit boards all the time, to try it. He tried several solder joints and never got it to suck anything. He has a different "sucker" that he says does work, but he is more a fan of solder wicks.
I don't recommend this product.
Customer Review: Desoldering Pump Summary: 4 Stars
its effective and cheap, you have to remove any solder inside the pump from time 2 time to avoid clogging
Customer Review: Desoldering Pump Summary: 3 Stars
It's a plain desoldering pump. Bigger than the one I used before (it's 8in long x 3/4in diameter). It's not real high quality, but it works well enough for occasional jobs; I just used it on an X box controller S. As another review said, the tip does get filled with solder, but I never had to open it to get it out; when I push the pin back down it clears the tip. Mine is navy blue with neon orange plastic (unlike the image on the product page) and made by Steren. The package specified that it's made of aluminum. Seems like it will last for a good long while.
