I use a WEP 862D+, but there are plenty of other similar ones available.
Personally I found the included soldering iron a bit rubbish (there's no mass to the tip, so it loses temperature too fast) but it's possible that my iron was faulty. I still use my 30 year old Weller :)
Otherwise the hot air works perfectly though - so if you have an iron you're happy with just a standalone hot air station might be better.
