FumeClear Solder Fume Extractor - Powerful 100W Suction 200m³/h, Low-Noise, 3-Stage Filtration System with 12PCS Filters for Laser Welding Smoke Absorption and Desktop Soldering

Small enough for my work space but work great when I have it close to my engraver. I only use half the power and it’s made a big difference. I tested the filter usage, once it got pretty dirty, I washed it and reused it over as a test. It does Come with extra filters. The hose is sturdy but flexible to stay exactly where you want it to stay. Overall this is a good product. Worth the money. Only wish I would have gotten the next bigger size as I increase my machinery. .

I've tried the smaller fume extractors, and even at first had a "charcoal pad on a fan" ones. This unit has plenty of suction power as long as it is close to the work piece, which I've found is normal unless you buy an industrial-size machine. But I have not had to turn it up past 1/4 of the dial and it sucks in all of the solder fumes and I smell absolutely nothing. Unless you solder or weld a ton, the filters should last a bit of time, but replaements are pricey at ~$90. I'll gladly pay it to know all those chemicals from the rosin vapor are in those pads rather than in me!Overall a great machine, good build quality for sure. A bit heavy though so you might want to look at one on wheels if your going to be moving it from place to place.

The media could not be loaded. This fume extractor does a great job pulling in solder and glue fumes. The filters work well, I don't smell anything coming out the other end. The flexible tube is stiff but easily adjusted, reaching all the way from the floor to the top of the desk. The box is small enough to fit under the desk without getting in the way. The unit is fairly quiet, but it does make some white noise in the background. A pair of noise cancelling headphones will do the trick. I definitely should have invested in one of these earlier. At the very least, this system keeps the fumes out of your eyes and lungs.Edit: The motor and control board eventually failed on my first unit within about 6 months. The company Fume Clear sent me a replacement unit and we got back on track.

Works great. On lower setting it’s very quiet and captures all the soldering fumes.

This works great as far as filtration. It is a little loud when when it is turned all the way up and I wish the hose would stand up on it’s own. I bought it to filter out gases from my dtf oven and it does a great job. Came with several filters worth the investment would buy it again.

I tempered my expectations, but this looked a little bit more suitable for electronics than the similar unit Dave from eevblog reviewed so I thought it would work in any case. From that video, I prefer this one and it's a great value. The build quality is high, size is compact for what it is, hose holds well and has two nozzles, sound level is fine, and it came with 10 prefilters (which they cleverly used as side padding in the package).I don't know how it compares to the $800+ units but I think the only major advantage of any other filter machine might be in filtration media which you could experiment with yourself on this power unit. It would be a massive leap up from those desktop fan things in any case.

So far it sucks up the fumes and dust quite nicely :)Easy to clean; quieter than my G2 Pro laser :)

I purchased this because it said it would be good for like salon environment. I do nails at home . You have to be very close to the machine for it to pick up any dust and as far as fume or odor extractor I could still smell the monomer really strong. Returning it.
