xytronic lf-861d any good?

[Michaelaudio]

Has enyone get their hands on the xytronic lf-861d hot Air Station? I havent found much on Google, however i kinda like the Design and i found it on a Shop Website Here. Just wanna know If its reliable, before i spent 320$.

Better buy original Quick 861 which is known for excellent performance and reliability. https://eleshop.eu/quick-861dw-hot-air-station.html Other similar stations are are clones of it, not to say it makes no sense to buy a clone at such price. Also lack of physical buttons is a big no.

It would be my first hot air station, u say the touch Display would be a pain soon?
I read, that the atten is more or less the same, than the quick, but at a lower price. The xytronic catched my eye too, bc of the Minimum of 1,5L/min. Atten has Minimum of 20, the quick 1L. 
But i dont really know how low u have to get, bc of my lack of experience.

I don't know any use case where airflow below 5-10l/min can be advantageous. Below 20 l/min is quite niche use and most likely it will be fine with 20l/min anyway.  For SMT soldering I use around 60 l/min in most cases, 120 l/min for heatshrink and fast desoldering of something larger. Atten ST-862D is pretty good apparently. However Atten is known for selling a lot of low quality equipment, but lately they seem to be targeting higher price segment with better quality equipment.  If you want to save some money ST-862D is a good choice. I don't see a reason why you would chose Xytronic over Quick or Atten.

The quick is 1-120l/min. Well guess ill Take the quick then👍🏻

Outside of haveing to replace the hot air gun element twice and find a new transformer (part not available from XYtonic) and  the on off switch broke, no other problems with our Xytronic station in a repair shop.
Not your model but hot air and solder iron station.
Oh, forgot had to replace the iron also twice.

Good Luck
