The Topeak ChainBot has served me well for going on 6 years now. Really well constructed.
Chain breaking is easier with a little prep work. Flex the chain a bit, give it a good shot of WD-40 thena go at it with the chain tool.

This is Africa, 1943. War spits out its violence overhead and the sandy graveyard swallows it up. Her name is King Nine, B-25, medium bomber, Twelfth Air Force. On a hot, still morning she took off from Tunisia to bomb the southern tip of Italy. An errant piece of flak tore a hole in a wing tank and, like a wounded bird, this is where she landed, not to return on this day, or any other day.
