Can't compare to other plates, but this one went on as expected and seems super beefy. Used with a 12,000 lb X-Power winch on a stock steel rubicon bumper. PRO-TIP: Instructions and some YouTube installation vids say you will have to drill out 4 mounting holes in the air dam/skid plate brackets if you want to keep it attached to the bottom of the stock bumper. NOT NECESSARY. Just don't tighten skid plate bolts until you get them all started in place, then tighten down.
