Short version: buy an FR-801 used or an FR-810. The all-in-one FM-206 station utilizes the terrible FM-2029 hot air nozzle. Hakko's standalone hot air stations such as the FR-801 and FR-810 are excellent, but the one built into the FM-206 is awful.

Here I go over the Hakko FM-206 station with an FM-2029 hot air pencil, and contrast it to a Hakko FR-801 at maximum heat settings for each.

I do not solder at maximum heat, but wanted to give a comparison of the potential of each. In my opinion most 3 in one stations for soldering, desoldering, and hot air are worse than having separate discrete hot air and soldering stations and this experience has been no different.
