- Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2025Great solder. Great deal. Excellent melt and flow. Recommended.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2025In my experience, every factory solder joint, and every bit of solder that comes with new soldering guns, even a spool or two I bought online, pales in comparison to this brand solder. Those others are so difficult once the solder is placed, in that they usually take a bigger amount of heat than what they first required and it makes it difficult for a person like me who likes to suck up solder to repurpose my circuit boards. This brand is really quality and well for all applicable use in my opinion.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2025Good quality high price
- Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2025What's to say, this is the bench mark of solder. It excels in all specifications for solder, flows so smooth compared to china knock off stuff
- Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2024Don't waste time and money on cheap solder. This product is the real deal.

This solder works great and the flux that is in it is also super easy to clean up. Shipping was also super fast.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2023The kester solder is truly excellent but the delivery was super slow this time. Late by over one week. I was able to make do with what I had left but nearly couldn’t complete a job I had taken on.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2024I WAS reordering leaded .8mm at 100grams per roll. Finally paid attention to the Kester seemingly expensive solder, but doing the math for a 1 pound roll, it works out well!
It DOES still shine when cooled, which is a huge contrast to the cloudy look of the "cheap stuff". that happens to make it easier to check the work under magnification.
MOST importantly, this solder flows MUCH better than the off name brand. I thought the ugly work was my iron or tip, but turned out to be the weird named solder!
I definitely recommend upgrading to Kester if you have been use to the light rolls of Chinese off brands. I got another roll of .5mm wire for SMD work and am much more confident working the micro stuff now
