I've been a hobbits soldering for about 25 years now, but have done a bit in the professional field. For about the last 15 years I've used a Weller WM120 as my primary hobby iron with a super low end SP23LK 25 watt iron for heavier duty things. On my bench in the office I used a Hakko 936 which is a great unit, but it's pretty spendy for a home gamer.
About two months ago I saw an EEVBlog video on a chinese replicate of the Hakko936 and Dave had a lot of really good things to say about it during his teardown. Clive has also done a video on this same iron, and uses a Yuhua soldering station as his regular bench unit. This prompted me to buy one from Hobbyking about two weeks ago and I've been very happy with it so far.
Some notes: The station slides around on my plastic covered table, as does the iron stand. This was easily resolved by adding a couple little rubber feet to the bottom of both. Also, the iron stand is VERY light and easily picked up when you're attempting to retrieve the iron, but simply adding a little bit of weight in the bottom resolved that. For $30 shipped to my house, It's pretty legit. Can use Hakko tips on it as well.
If you are still looking Silverline do a cheap one.
Have had no issues with it aprt from it does tend to hold on to the bit of insulation you stripped off and have to knock it out.
Best technique with these seems to be grip it gently and give a firm tug.
You can get them cheaper than that on amazon. I've seen them going for £5.73 for a five pack as an add-on item. Ok they aren't the 2x spicy ones, but I've had both of them and these ones are almost as hot.
Or if you absolutely must have the 2x spicy ones as featured on the video, you can also get them off amazon for £6.74 for a 5 pack
