Are all “858D” desoldering brands the same?

[eti]

I’ve seen an “858D” on eBay for £19.99, but it’s not Attention brand. Am I to take it that they’re all from the same factory and rebadged?

It’s this one, thank you; https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/185180310223?hash=item2b1d9b4acf:g:f4EAAOSwF7hhnKjc

Looks subtly different to my 858D clone, so I'm going to cautiously say 'no'.

The 858D as a model designator, I believe, is a clone of the Atten or Quick 858D, which is probably a clone of some other rework station.  So there are probably a number of companies that produce universally designed products here.  Such is the way of China.

No, not the same, but generally near enough that it doesn't matter.
This should be in the "other equipment" forum section btw.

I think the numbers originally came from Hakko products.
