Many improvements over the 808.
I was initially disappointed to learn I could no longer get repair parts for my trusty Hakko 808. I also had concerns about ordering from Japan, but to save a $100, I went for it, and was glad I did. The FR-301 came much faster than I anticipated, and although I could not make use of my old 808.tips, the new desoldering tool is a breeze to use. The many improvements include on/off switch, easy temperature setting and easier tip changing. It even comes in a blue and yellow color theme in support of a free Ukraine.Read full review...

Well worth it!
Maybe you think you don’t need one of these. That’s where I was with it for a long time. Then, I found myself doing some vintage stereo re-caps, so I finally bought one. As YouTuber AH Fixit says: “Game Changer “. It works incredibly well, and what is even more important is that you are much less likely to damage pads and traces, because it works quick.
There are some caveats. Only one tip is included. It is a 1 mm opening and will work for most stuff, but I find myself also needing a 1.3 mm at times. Extra tips are pricey but they should last pretty long The included stand is basically useless, you’ll have to get something else.
All that said, I’m sorry that I didn’t take the plunge a long time ago. Would have saved me an incredible amount of time. Also, it frees up one hand so you can hold a board with the other one. Highly recommended. Read full review...

Great Product
Very good high quality desoldering tool. Was ordered on Friday and it arrived on Tuesday. .Only 4 days for FedEx from Japan to Arizona. Only factor to consider is the 100 VAC spec but that is not a problem as I can run it at 100 Volts. Don't know if 120 VAC would shorten the heating element life but I wouldn't take the chance. Wish Hakko would offer a tip assortment to add to the original purchase.Read full review...

Best tool you'll buy this year
If you do any amount of desoldering you owe it to yourself to buy this tool. Don't waste your time and money on the cheaper chinese ones thinking you dont use it that much or that they will work just as well. THEY WON'T. I broke 3 of them before buying this Hakko and I am so very glad I did.. A quality tool made to be used. The best tool you'll buy this year.Read full review...

Love this desoldering gun. Its really great to use and has a wide range of nozzles and spare parts available for it. Worth every penny if you do a lot of desoldering.

The best desoldering tool on the market.
Pro: It works well.
The Sales people were fine. But shipping was a little slow.
Con:
It needs a 120-100V transformer. It doesn't come with needed nozzles and they are very expensive.

Great value
Invaluable asset if you do a lot of solder rework and repair. This WORKS with US voltages. It just runs a little hotter.
