My favorite Weller is the GT. I have three of them. The only downside is that they're so light, the weight of the cord often pulls them off the bench. They are really fast and they stay cool.

I had one of those when they first came out, brown in color.
They were good for the tube caddy, as they were light weight. They only had a two conductor line cord at the time.
