soldersucking - desoldering station advice?

[Simon]

I would like to know about powered desoldering stations.

How do they compare to wick/manual pumps, do they to a much better job of
desoldering?

I have seen pictures of the Weller DS1003 Desoldering Station, looks really
nice, does it work well?

I don't mind paying for a desoldering station, I just want to know if it
does make desoldering a lot easier?


Thanks
