    I thought mine was cheaper but I guess not I have this one
    ebay.com link: S 993A Electric Vacuum Desoldering Pump 100W Solder Sucker Gun 350 450 110V

    the station you have there looks similar to the gun ..
    Pros for mine

    easy to clean and remove any jams
    easy to replace filters
    works good for thru hole and surface mount components

    Cons
    when you have a big chip or a daughter board for a system 80B when the holes are small and the board is soldered on both sides it can not pull all the solder out of the holes

    you have to use chip quick solder and then clean up with the gun
