I haven't paid a lot of attention to the brands, they all worked. The liability is so great for them, that a US company would be foolish to put out something that didn't work. Every brand I have used, including dealer rebranded units has worked fine for many years.
The distinction I make is whether it is two stage or single stage. Two stage gives a more steady pressure regardless of flowrate or tank pressure. If you are also using a flow gauge (e.g., ball gauge) with a needle valve, the single stage will work fine for applications like welding and where you can adjust as needed.
