BB taps. Park, Hozan or something else?

The park and Hozan tools seem to be a similar design. Generally I'm more impressed with Hozan stuff, but I'm open to suggestions.

As this is a pretty pricey tool I'd like to get the most bang for the buck.

Which one is more durable?
Are replacement/different taps easy to come by or do they tend to be backordered for months?
Is one easier to use than the other?
Is there something better than either of these I'm unaware of? (that isn't twice the price)

As it stands now, the Park version appears to have the advantage as it comes with a basic facing tool. I realize it's not meant for heavy use, but it would suit my purposes for now and is better than no facing tool at all.

Thanks for your help or comments!
