I need recommendations for a pen press. What brand? Where to buy? I have been researching presses and it seems like many don't get a good review, because they are not durable.
My press:

I use this. It's the best pen press I've ever used. I've been trying for years to get a Huffman Pen Press, but they are scarce as hen's teeth.
The one I now use is the one from Miles Craft and a video can be seen at Milescraft Turners Pen Press Presented by Woodcraft - YouTube . Many vendors sell it. I got mine from Ariozona Silhouette but it is available from Amazon. Today I saw one at Woodcraft in Ft. Worth.
I recently used this pen press continuously for two days and it never missed a beat.
Do a good turn daily!
