I change out my switches frequently, and I’m looking for a tool that’s better than the free ones I’ve received over the years. Something that is robust, less likely to bend or break, is comfortable to use, and does a good job. Extra points if it’s cool looking, or comes in orange.

It's not the most advanced puller but compared to the free ones that you get I like this one a good bit https://cannonkeys.com/products/wuque-titanium-switch-puller

I own this and can vouch for it. A huge upgrade over the freebie switch pullers.

Not OP, but you cannot go wrong with this. It’s thinner hooks allow you to grab switches in tight corners.
I got the first one for free, but I liked it so much that I purchased another one just in case I lost/broke the first one.

I have been happy with this style, though I don't see one in orange: https://keygem.com/products/keygem-switch-puller
