Unfortunately, the price of the Chinese temperature-controlled irons has gone up quite a lot. About 10 years ago, I bought one of these
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Aoyue-937...4AAOSwfOBdwyBn but I'm sure it was nowhere near the present price back then. I've been very happy with it and now find going back to a fixed-temperature iron very hard to cope with. Re Antex fixed-temperature, they may be the market leader, but I used one for some time and never liked it.
