Here is a recent video reviewing many models. I have the Park Tool one myself and I think the Park and Pedros come out on top in his assessment. I also asked the local shop what they do and they are using the Park tool.

Thanks - I see that the Bikehand is the same as the Filzer unit I have. Something that video made me realize is that the plastic Park Tool Cyclone has a magnet at the bottom to catch metal debris as does the Bikehand/Filzer but the aluminum Park Tool doesn't. I'll have to figure a way to rig one. I'm thinking some flexible magnetic strip across the bottom that's a snug fit against the sides of the case.
