The OEM unit will outperform all the junk that people buy that's non oem. That starter lasted 20 years. It's a great product. You will likely have moved on from the car for some other problem by the time it dies again. The other non oem stuff "works" but longevity and crank time would probably been different.
Pros: outperforms non-OEM, lasted 20 years, great product

Honda Accord
I bought my starter at Amazon, TYC brand. Going great 2 years later.
Pros: going great, reliable

I replaced with a Duralast Gold starter and it's been running fine for nine years. Of course who knows what you're getting now in 2025, but the aftermarket one from 2016 has done great.
Pros: running fine, great performance
On the newest updated OEM starter for the 9th gen, that washer is almost 3x thicker than the previous models. This allows for more secure tooth engagement. That and the TSB fixed mine... Mine has been grind-free for over two years...
Pros: secure tooth engagement, grind-free operation

Burro a veces se pone pesado (recomiendo cambiar por nuevo valeo de 11 dientes que anda mas liviano y no jode mas)
Pros: anda mas liviano
Cons: se pone pesado

The newer Bosch and subsidiary starters use a different kind of magnet that is more fragile. Apparently, people were whacking them pretty hard and breaking the magnets, hence the sticker.
Pros: different kind of magnet
Cons: magnets more fragile
It’s shitty material and if the nut holding your signal wire on is at all too tight or a little rusty seized that piece will snap right off.
Cons: shitty material, snaps off easily
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
It's just the shittiest plastic on the starter motor.
