I use a cheap Chinese one. I've used multiple since all my relatives have one of these, though the brand is always different. They never last more than 2-4 years, either the leg or some mechanism breaks, or the best case, they are battery operated devices so that becomes the issue. The cost to repair tends to be, likely intentionally, expensive enough you are better off buying a new one.

So that's what I do.

It is the only device I'm annoyed with, at the same time, I'd rather have it do it's work than cleaning the house myself.
