Great solder, the only brand I'm using in the future
I've been using inexpensive solder for most of my life, I had gotten used to how horrible some are to melt and work with. While I'm not an expert at all when it comes to soldering. I've done enough to know now that I've been using junk in comparison LOL.For a new project I'm working on that requires soldering headers onto a fairly expensive GPS unit, I decided to do some solder research and came across this company. Yeah, it's more expensive than the others. But it's made here in the USA and I'm pretty sure most professional folks are using this because of the quality. Do your own research. This stuff is awesome. It melts quickly and easily and flows nicely. I'm never going back.

Lasts forever , easy to use , no mess, no flux, perfect 100/100%
This solder is perfect ! It works instantly without any flux ! Amazing heat transfer easy to clean…. The size is perfect for the cost ! I highly recommend this product over any solder if you’re using it like I am on wiring. :) will buy again but it lasts for ever

Don't take any wire out. Be careful.
I'm sure it is good solder but you have to be careful. There is a small hole in one end cap to pull wire through so it looks like the picture. If you use the other end, the product is wrapped in there like a slinky so once you take it out, you can't get it back in the tube. I thought the packaging would be better

It's been a standard for decades.
It's strange to me that I had to order solder online. None of the local stores carried known quality.But ordering online had a couple problems. One is that there are dozens of brands with names consisting of a random collection of letters and a few that perported to at least have pronouncable names. Some of them might be just fine or even great, but how would you know? And, there is the whole push for lead free solder which I consider only suitable for plumbing and not very good for that. So, I looked for the names I have trusted for 5 decades. Ersin seems to have dissappeared being absorbed by a conglomerate. But Kester, particularly Kester 44, has always worked for me. And I prefer the 63/37 eutectic for sensitive electronics. One last hurdle. I am retired and a pound of solder would probably oxidize before I got a chance to use it all. Fortunately, these guys have taken to repackage it in a reasonable quantity since I'm not using miles of it anymore. Not cheap, but I can trust the connections.
