Loads of kit is packed in the case - included is a solder gun, 30-watt iron, de-soldering suction tool, 'third hand', probe, flux, solder and even tweezers. The gun is great for one-off jobs, heating up fast. The iron could do with more power, and postage adds ΂£5.95 to the price unless you spend ΂£45 or more on your total Screwfix order. But as we suspect most buyers will do this, it isn't enough to prevent it getting our Recommended electric tool award.
