I prefer the second one - I can use my impact gun on it, much quicker!
 
The dual hook system is good on the Sealey - I have a similar set but don't know the make.
The hooks are also inclined to suit the spiral of the spring, unlike some which can slip down the coil.
I'd go for them, but on some vehicles (French mostly) you do need 3.
These are too big to do coil overs such as those on the early Mazda MX5 unfortunately - you need bike ones for those.

I use similar to the Sealey ones and they're fine for occasional use.

Have been doing Picanto front struts this past week and the compressors I have couldn't quite manage the job so a quick trip to the local Screwfix for this pair. They work but they sure take a lot of winding with only one claw on a thread. With my old set both claws are threaded and opposite so take no time at all to wind in and out.
