Xtronic makes a good solid kit, It's a hakko clone. I'm a big fan of hakko! I believe it to be the best. If you get one of those 4 in one stations they'll can be quite handy. The hot air torch is great at removing old caps, just remember the more rotted and nasty the cap the more time you need with the hot air torch, if it takes 15 seconds per cap so be it, not worth getting frustrated, heat has to melt the solder, and the rot is like insulation. :( .
