Soldering is quite easy and a good equipment will do most of the work for you.
I have a feeling that beginner works often look crap because they use bad equipment.
The linked soldernig station looks like cheap china stuff but the (hopefully truthfuly) specifications sounds ok so i guess that you can do decent soldering with it if you use the correct soldering tip. The supplied one doesn't look too good but should be sufficient for some work. Just order some better tips.
Also make sure to get good soldering wire, it's very essential for the end result.
Soldering flux is also a good thing to get and will make a great difference sometimes.
