Has anyone advice/experience with the branded versions, are any better
than others??

I've had two Manrose ones burn out.
I've had a Deta cease, but it has a resettable cutout, so
after cleaning and reoiling the bearing, it's OK again.
However, I don't think Deta exist anymore (CPC used to stock them).
Two Vent-Axia's are doing fine, but one is still quite new.
