I am using the Yaesu FTA-450L radio. It works fine, but I added a magnetic mount antenna that greatly improved my ability to hear both ATC and the aircraft.
If possible, try using different brands first. I find the user interface less intuitive for the way my brain works, but haven’t had a chance to compare with any other brands to see if they may be better, worse, or just different. You can find reviews raving about the UI on any brand, so it is a personal perspective thing.
That said, it is setup for the airports I regularly fly adjacent to so it isn’t a problem in actual use.
