Weller WE1010NA
I am using a cheap Chinese clone workstation (Aoyue), it works ok. The only minor issue is that sometimes there is 60Hz hum from the transformer block.
For the same money as Weller, you can get a clone, AND an SMD rework tweezer iron. My bench has these two, and a small hot air gun with digital control (also Chinese from Aliexpress).
I saw some newer irons with the regulator built right into the handle. You may consider those if your work area is limited.
