I solder about once every two weeks. For years, I have been using a small, portable fan to blow the excess fumes away from me, but all it was doing is moving them from one place to another, so I figured bite the bullet and get a fume extractor. I assumed that it would be made with a low-budget, cheap 80-120mm fan and I would still see smoke coming out. Ok, I was completely wrong.The fan is medium sized, 150*150, but its power is something else. I only needed the power at around 25% to fully pull the fumes from the soldering area. I didn’t see any smoke leaving the unit, so I assume it’s working as it should. I’m guessing that once it no longer extracts the smoke and/or I see smoke leaving the unit, it would be time to replace the filters? Don’t know and I probably don’t have to worry about that for many, many years.

Works well even at only half speed. No idea when to replace the filters but probably years of occasional / hobby use and they give you extras. Only gripe is that you need to solder pretty close to it to ensure it pulls in all the fumes if running on a lower speed, so a little shroud on the top and sides would make it work a bit better but it didn't come with one like some similar products do. Wouldn't be hard to make a hood out of cardboard if you don't care about looks.

The NOEVSBIG Fume Extractor is a fantastic addition to any workspace requiring clean air during detailed projects. The adjustable suction power is incredibly helpful, letting you tailor the performance to your needs, whether you're soldering, working on stained glass, laser engraving, or even 3D printing. The included four carbon filters are a great bonus, and are effective at capturing fumes and odors to create a safer and more pleasant working environment. It is compact but powerful, with a sturdy construction that feels like it will last well for my hobbyist use levels.

I've been soldering occasionally for decades without a fume extractor, just suffering through the flux smoke rising into my eyes. I wish I had this right from the start.It's pretty wild watching the smoke make a horizontal beeline right into the extractor instead of going straight up like I'm used to. It pulled the smoke from a foot away on 1/3 fan power (even though the spec sheet says it's only rated to extract fumes up to 8" away). Filter sponge trapped the smoke completely; nothing was visible out the other side. It comes with a couple extra filter sponges too if the first ever stops working.It's not a complicated device - just a fan and a filter in a housing - so I would normally say it's a little expensive at $40 after coupon (at time of review) except that fume extractors don't seem to exist for much less. This *is* a bargain in the small market of fume extractors. I also understand where the cost comes from for this particular unit; It's built heavy with a solid steel frame and a fan more powerful than I would have guessed was necessary. It's rugged enough that I would expect it to hold up to industrial use - not that my hobby soldering will verify that.The only thing I'm not a fan of is the short 3 foot power cord. It is a removable standard desktop style power cord though, so can easily be replaced (most likely with a cord you already have).

Needs to be able to pull air a little stronger in order to not have it be constantly in the way. Instructions state that optimal distance is 8" which is quite close when you're trying to maneuver around small parts. It's also very loud for the amount of air it's moving. Lastly, the carbon filters seem to have quite large openings to be able to filter much, but I haven't done any testing to confirm that, so take that last point with a grain of salt.

I'm sure the reader knows this but solder fume is bad for you. New flash I know, yeah. I think the majority of the soldering market has transitioned from lead to lead-free. But they still contain heavy metals and has the same sort of smell so my bet is to avoid it completely.This fume extractor surprised me because it has a really robust 150mm fan with dynamic voltage control to adjust the speed of the fans from near silent to roaring jet speeds. It still offers plenty of airflow even in the lowest settings with very little noise. To elaborate, the motor hums at low speeds and not at all distracting to the task at hand which thoroughly deserves a two thumbs up from me.It's not the cheapest item but it's all-metal construction and overall robustness will ensure years, if not decades of continuous operation. It contains 4 total carbon filters that I've found to be washable and thus reusable. Just soak it in soapy water and it'll be good as new. The point is, your hard earned dollars will go a long way with this fume extractor.To close, I'd highly recommend this to other hobbyists but probably not for indoor smokers as it failed to fully filter out a thick plume of vape. But they should be looking for a completely different product for the latter anyways. 5 out of 5 stars, perfect for soldering projects.
