I've had a couple of the cheaper ones, which have failed due to the buttons being pushed in too hard whilst being carried around in my over-loaded camera bag.
I've recently ordered replacements a super budget £2 model one with a built in intervalometer. This time I intend to find rigid box for the one I carry, and eave the advance model in a draw for when I need its special features.
I've not seen any that look substantially more robust except for DIY models (they are very easy to make)
BTW many (but not all) Canon models use the same connector

Thank you Mike, looks like the cheaper ones aren't much good then unless they're carried separately.

Usually Mary I have found one of the cable cores break down and have to be reterminated, even happened on a Pentax remote.
