I don't think theres that much in between manufacturers these days. I've been using an LG GSA-4167B - it's a DVD-RAM so it can support all the different disc types and can write at up to x16 on the right discs and its been great, hasn't put a foot wrong.

Always used Pioneer writers which are cheap and reliable in my experience.

The latest Pioneer DVR-111 can be had for around £20.

Pioneer or NEC - both have hackable/updatable firmware allowing full speeds on new blank media as it is released. Sony/Toshiba are a bit crap when it comes to things like that.
