Default Spaetzle maker

I see a bunch for sale on line. Which one is best and cheapest?

One that is metal and has a little box on top

one that is plastic and fits on top of a pan????

Would love some advice.

For years I had a metal version of the plastic one that fits on top of a
pan and the dough is pushed through by hand with a pusher or wooden spoon.
It worked fine, but eventually deteriorated. (Obviously, the plastic
version wouldn't rust.)

Recently, however, a friend sent me one that has a sliding metal box on
top. It's exactly like this one on eBay: http://tinyurl.com/8mg2w
I wish I had one of these years ago. It's much easier to use and drops the
dumplings into the water much more quickly.

Spaetzle is a small dumpling of German origin. There are other European
variations that are quite similar.
