Works well

I can only guess that any legitimate 4- and 5-star reviews for this product are from people who used the tool for a few minutes, mended one plastic item and then put the tool away. If you’re looking for a one-use fix-it tool for a broken piece of plastic, this might meet your expectations. However, if you’re looking for a tool that won’t die after one or two uses, this tool is a total dud.I ordered this product to fix a few cracked plastic items. It heated up in a few minutes, was easy to handle and worked quite well. Unfortunately, as seems to be the case with many brands of these so-called “plastic welding” soldering irons, THE TOOL SIMPLY STOPPED WORKING AFTER BEING PLUGGED IN FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. The power light continued to glow, but the tip remained stone-cold. I unplugged the tool, let it “rest” for a while and tried again. Nothing, nada, zilch. This product seems to have a serious design flaw which burns out the internal parts in very short order. Obviously, once the heating function stops working, it is completely useless for plastic welding; and sadly, it’s not even attractive enough to be a paperweight.I got this for about $13 on a lightning deal. If I had to put a value on it, I would say it was worth about 13 CENTS because it did actually fix two plastic cracks before it died. I returned it to Amazon the day after it arrived and got a Weller 140W/100W soldering gun. The Weller isn’t as “elegant” for plastic welding as this product would be if it lasted longer than an hour, but the Weller works fine and had no trouble working past the one-hour mark. (From videos I’ve seen, people are still using Weller soldering guns they bought 40 years ago.)If you have more than one small item to plastic-weld, I would urge you not to waste your money, time and energy on this short-lived tool.1 star.

Plastic welding is tedious and messy, but that's not the fault of this product. I fixed my blue box recycling bin that had a number of breaks close to one corner. I used steel wool instead of the mesh that came with the kit. The result was ugly but functional. Can't expect more. I had a plastic garbage can that I was also hoping to fix, but it was so broken and split in many places that I decided, even with this welder, it would be more tedious work than was worth it.

It is extremely easy to use. It takes a few minutes to heat up. But once heated. It stays at temp. It seems pretty high quality for the price I paid. It comes with alot of rods. Of different kinds. And it performs amazingly. My only issue is with the stand. It had a little metal stand. And it will get just as hot. As the device does. So set it on something that won't melt or burn
