De-solder machine. which is best ????

[TechMaster]

Anyone got some tips for me on buying a de-solder machine?
i am looking at a HAKKO Model # 808
It got the vaccume pump built into the handel.
anyone here have any experience with this item??
or should i go with something else.
Any recomendations welcome

I prefer Hakko, but Pace also makes some good equipment. There seem
to be a zillion cheap Chinese "Hakko knock-offs" out there .. we have
some of them a work. They are garbage, compared to the "real thing".

YMMV
