32 customers mention32 positive0 negative

Customers are satisfied with the quality of the soldering iron. They mention it has good construction, is made from high quality plastic, and is sturdy. The filter is mounted in a substantial housing, and the unit creates a strong enough draft to carry away fumes.

"...It's made from high quality plastic, the switch is firm, the fan is loud but not annoying. No vibration.Negative:..." Read more

"...No need to dodge fumes or wave hands like a caveman starting a fire. Big and feels very well made, as I would expect from Hakko...." Read more

"...On the plus side the build quality is very good, typical Hakko, very small footprint on your work station in the stand up position...." Read more

"Well made, not too loud and takes up a bunch of bench space. Works as intended with no real issues other than the size...." Read more

44 customers mention21 positive23 negative

Customers are mixed about the noise of the tool. Some mention that it's not too loud, has a powerful and relatively quiet fan that sucks all the solder fumes, while others say that it is noisy and you have to be within a foot for it to sucked in the fume.

"...It's quiet for its class, although I'm sure it's relatively loud right by your ear under perfectly laboratory conditions...." Read more

"...Noise is fine. It's a small fan so it's not silent, but I've had computers with louder fans...." Read more

"...It's not particularly loud to my ears, seems sturdy.If I change my point of view, I'll come back with an update." Read more

"...The Hakko FA430 Fume Extractor works great but is also noisy...." Read more

Customers are mixed about the smell of the tool. Some mention that there's virtually no smell in the room after soldering, while others say that the room still smells like fumes. That said, some say that it blows the fume away from them.

"...into the filter and yet nothing come out, and the flux smell is almost completely gone. Has made it more pleasant and safer to solder in my basement...." Read more

"...Using for soldering. The room still smells like fumes so I’m not sure but I know it’s doing something, at least reducing them." Read more

"...But... it does work and it beats huffing chemicals, especially in close quarters." Read more

"...for it to suck in the smoke, BUT it works very well and I can no longer smell the solder and it's not in my eyes or nose, so this is working as..." Read more

12 customers mention8 positive4 negative

Customers are mixed about the performance of the tool. Some mention that the fan is powerful and quiet for the volume of air it is pulling, while others say that it's underpowered and must be directly against it for it to work.

"...It needs to be fairly close to your work, it is not overly powerful...." Read more

"...(the fan isn't the strongest)..." Read more

"...Unit is not loud and the flow of air is just right. I have mine about 12" from the solder job and it pulls the fumes well enough from there." Read more

"The unit has a quality build. The fan is powerful and quiet for the volume of air it is pulling...." Read more

seems sturdy. If I change my point of view
I used it for the first time today. I'm new to the hobby and almost decided to build one on my own, but decided in the end I'd rather start making something rather than all the things I need to make something, if you know what I mean.You can see from the picture that I have it right behind where I've been doing my soldering work. It seemed to me 100% effective. No smoke anywhere and even though it was mostly below where I was doing the soldering, it seemed to function well.It's not particularly loud to my ears, seems sturdy.If I change my point of view, I'll come back with an update.
