Valve Spring Compressors

I need to pick one up for my LO3 rehab,I would like to use it on a couple sbf's and some Pontiac stuff as well.I used to use the one in my uncles shop but he is to far away now and I can't afford the snap on stuff that he has.What styles do you like and dislike?Good brands that haven't failed and what to stay away from?Affordable?
Any input would be greatly appreciated!Thanks!

i just ordered one from summit, a proform that screws on to the rocker studs, worked excellent except for the last valve springs on the pass side due to the a/c box
