Never Know When You'll Need One Feb 03, 2010
By Richard Kenyada I never thought I'd have a reason to use a de-soldering pump, but recently I found myself disassembling the power supply of an LCD TV. The TV manufacturer had placed inferior capacitors on the circuit board of the power supply and after 2 years, the TV would not turn on. After much research, I found that I could swap out the bad capacitors myself and save a ton of money. So I purchased the desoldering pump to help remove the old solder from the circuit board by vacuuming up the hot solder so that the capacitor can be replaced. Though I had no experience with circuit boards, I was able to complete the task successfully, and the TV now works like new. The desoldering pump worked perfectly, and I can honestly say, "This product sucks!"

Not as good as ones I've previously used Aug 05, 2008
By Brian D. Poteat

This one works ok, but I found this pump to get clogged with hardened solder easier than other pumps I've used. Maybe mine has a defect or something but it seems that the suction isn't quite what it needs to be to get the solder all the way into the base. Instead it will sometimes get stuck in the rubber tip and after 4 or 5 joints will clog the tip up so the cleaner bar won't go all the way in and you have to take it apart and clean it out to do more.

Better than nothing Feb 18, 2010
By Dave Angus First, I'm assuming this is the same sucker that Radio Shack sold - it sure looks the same. I was happy with it initially, because it was solidly made, and easier to use than a squeeze bulb type. However, once I got my hands on an Edsyn DS017 Soldapullt, I thought differently. The DS017 creates a stronger vacuum and moves more air, so is much more effective removing solder. I'd advise spending the extra $15 for the real thing.

not very effective Jan 02, 2010
By G. Bruckno I bought this one from Rat Shack since I needed a desoldering tool right away, but I wouldn't recommend it. It works, but just barely. Two reasons it's not good: the pump barrel just isn't large enough to move a sufficient volume of air to pick up enough solder. Also, when you release the plunger the pump "recoil" makes it hard to keep the tip on the work. Get the Edsyn SoldapulltĀ® Deluxe Desoldering Pump instead. It has a much larger barrel and doesn't suffer from the recoil problem.

Crap Nov 10, 2011
By sdevlin Do not buy this. I recieved this today, took it out of the package and after 10 minutes of normal use the microscopic plastic threads gave out. Horrible design, how anybody would think that putting tiny plastic threads on a fitting which is supposed to hold a spring in place excapes me... asides from falling apart after 10 minutes it jams up ALL the time... I repeat DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM!!!!!
