Hi,
I noticed yesterday that our toilet's ball valve never completely switches off. It drips into the cistern, until the water level eventually hits the external overflow.
It's one of these:

There's a fair bit of limescale and crud around the valve, so I was thinking of just replacing it.
Then I saw this, an alternative design:

From people's experience, are these a better design? Not having an arm and ball certainly sounds better to me.
Or is there another more durable option?
Many thanks!
