A little bit of digging suggests that it might be a rebranded Tenma and one of these looks like it might be the newer version:
I actually own this one, and I'm not too happy with it. The build quality of the iron bit is pretty pour in my opinion, and I already had to replace the ceramic heating element because the iron couldn't handle the pressure I needed to apply in order to wick some solder blob. It was relatively cheap when I got it, and I regret not going for a more expensive, higher quality station.
My experience, anyway.
