I would go with a T12 clone such as the KSGER, especially if your on a limited budget.
You do have to factor in that it runs on 12 to 24V and have to add a power supply. But it can be a laptop brick or even just an extra plug you make on your lab power supply. (maybe with extra small SMPS module)
Don't buy the cheapest handle for a T12 clone. There are multiple variants, the very cheap ones are garbage, for about EUR10 to EUR15 you have a decent handle.
An orignal Hakko probably has longer tip life and a bit better build quality.
With a T12 clone however, you can get a lot of different tip sizes for cheap, and they last quite a while. When the tip sizes you use most wear out, then you can consider buying better quality tips for those.
Then you have the best of both worlds. An assortment of tips for different jobs, and a lasting one for your favorite tip model. (or just buy some extra's of the cheap versions and consider them consumables).
The cheap wellers are garbage. I've got a Weller PU81 with a WSP80 and it cost me around EUR350, and it's OK-ish and it does the job but not great. I'd rather have a T12 clone, but I only discovered that years after buying the Weller. Ali wasn't such a big thing back then.
My weller has two design flaws. First, the stiff metal tube that should nold the tip in place expands and contracts with heating and cooling, so the tip works loose and starts wobbling far to often. The second flaw is the small contact area between the heating element and the tip. It can not put it's 80Watts of power well into a thick solder joint.
