Let's face it, if you are buying this, then you're not afraid of what I will recommend. Open it up and check out the strain relief zip tie. Mine was too close to the connector and a pull on the cord would've stressed the connection. Easy to put in a new zip tie and then it is a solid unit. The shroud and case is plastic. I like to tilt it so it's more "over " the work I'm doing, in this case it works fantastic. Don't expect it to pull smoke from the other side of the bench/table. It would be nice if it had a light on it as well, so I will be adding a "sewing machine" light to it as an improvement.

The solder fume extractor works well and moves plenty of air to pull in solder fumes. Using unit is simple, set close to solder location, plug into wall socket then flip on power switch. Unit is very portable for easy storage when not in use.

I've been soldering for decades and always intended to buy a fume filter, but they're not exactly cheap in most cases. I found this looking at new soldering irons and thought I would give it a try. I ordered the unit and 5 extra filters. I love it, makes a huge difference in the oder in the house and filters out some of the nasty stuff that flux turns into when it burns.

Fume extractors tend to get really expensive, and for good reason. This product matches its price. It's not great, but you can make it work. It definitely a good cheap option until you have a chance to afford something more powerful. This doesn't have a lot of suction to it, so you need to be pretty close to it to get it to work. Also, no fans, because fans of any kind may blow the fumes away before they are sucked up.

I am glad I purchased this, because it removes solder fumes. Other than being a little noisy, it was a good buy, but the noise is a little annoying.
