Polyurethane Control Arm Busings... better or worse than OE type

Ive been wanting to rebuild the control arms... havent bought anything, but I was going to get MOOG brand stuff because its name brand and supposedly good quality. It would be like 140 ish to do all of the control arms... but Summitracing has an Engergy Suspension front control arm kit w/shells for 60 bucks:

I know a lot of people here have used something like it, but I dont know anyone who has...
Do you like them?
Could you tell a difference? or just needed to be replaced?
Have you had to replace them due to worn out..if so how long did they last?

Basically I dont want to buy something thats not going to last... ive read they are a pain to do, but Ive got the prep covered.

thanks fellas,
clint
