I've alway used Sandisk ones and have never had any issues.

Apart from the ones that I am given for free as promotional material, I tend to buy PNY for no better reason than I have not had any problems with them in the past.

I bought one from Hong Kong through ebay. It was 64gb, I put about 4 gb of data onto it and then it went wrong and now the data is lost and it needs formatting apparently ::b

My other one is 16gb and I got it from staples and I have had no issues with it.

Play.com do a 16gb stick for £16.99.

Had 2 of them for a while and both have been flawless to date.
