I still have my first soldering iron, a Weller WECP-20 (so it's 40 years

in handy when I need something with more heat capacity.

Also have a Weller WMRP. Heats up in 3 seconds:

Nice. A fine tip would be nice but I do fine soldering with a hot air
gun or a copper wire wrapped around the soldering tip (with plenty of
flux).

My traveling kit has a TS101 style soldering iron which I don't use
very often. Something like this:

We live in different worlds. I do mostly repairs these days. I have
two ancient Weller WTCP soldering stations, three vacuum pump
desoldering stations, and I have no idea how many non-motorized
"solder pump" vacuum desoldering contraptions. Soldering is easier
than desoldering.
