I went with Zimmerman front and rear about 1.5 years ago. No problems.
Pros: no problems

I went with the FCP euro replacement kit, the zimmerman rotors have been fine (another 35k on them), the texar pads work fine, but dust more than OEM
Pros: rotors have been fine
Cons: pads dust more
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 35000 km
If you’re going to replace the front rotors, I recommend going with some coated rotors, like Brembo 09.C306.11, to prevent rusted rotors where the brake pads don’t make contact.
Pros: prevent rusted rotors
Part number: 09.C306.11
I went with normal "street" powerstop rotors on the front and I think matching ceramic pads. No issues at all brakes as it should.
Pros: no issues at all
Mileage: 70000 km
My '15 has 88k mi, and I think I'm on my third set of rotors. Since the car is out of warranty now, I got a set of slotted rotors and matching pads from AutoZone or PepBoys for $350. They don't squeak when wet, and don't accumulate the rust or dirt the factory rotors did. My braking is greatly increased too.
Pros: increased braking, no rust
Cons: accumulated dirt
Mileage: 88000 km
Part number: K6762
I recently went with Bosch branded discs and pads for an E46 330i M Sport. So far, so good.
Pros: so far so good
Vehicle:

Saves energy when braking. Its really satisfying to see the range go up when slowly braking downhill. This also saves your brake discs from wearing out fast, (just remember to use the brakes some times so they dont rust).
Pros: Saves energy when braking
Cons: need to charge often
Vehicle:
BMW
Brembo are OEM on most AMGs from the 63/45 lineups. The Brembo front rotors for the CLA45 aren’t terribly expensive ($400) compared to the bigger brakes on the 63s.
Pros: relatively inexpensive, OEM quality
One of my front rotors on my 2019 was showing significant grooving by about 1500 miles. At 12k miles, it isn't really all that much worse. No pulsing or judder.
Pros: no pulsing or judder
Cons: significant grooving
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 19312 km
I was fairly unimpressed that the brand new rotors out of the box have some surface rust. I suspect these have been on a shelf for a long time.
Cons: surface rust
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
