I would go for an ESD safe soldering station if you are going to be soldering microcontrollers or other sensitive components, the one I use from Weller is no longer available but it's basically the same as this one... https://www.amazon.com/Weller-WE1010NA-Soldering-ESD-Safe-Desoldering/dp/B093TW8RDW/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=weller+soldering+station+esd&qid=1631731165&sr=8-5
Unless you want to do a lot of Surface mount stuff, then go with a more complete hot air combo or stand alone with this soldering station.
