The one it comes with is fine for smaller jobs.
3.2mm tip, good for medium jobs like 20ga to 12ga wire
5.2mm tip, good for larger jobs like 10ga to 6ga wire
As far as the different models of solder stations, I don't follow it much, as I am not in the market for one often.
I just know what I am looking for in a soldering iron and find a reputable brand within my budget.
