Default O2 sensors? Stick with stock or others ok?

Should i stick with a stock O2 sensor or will a bosch sensor work fine? Im pretty sure the bosch is less expensive and if it does the job just as well i cant see spending money just because its OEM. Thanks

OEM seem to last longer, but aftermarket definitely cost less.

Factory is very expensive, but the Bosch works great, and the Bosch single wire universal is only $18.

I tried the generic Bosch sensor first. One lasted 2 weeks, the next one didn't seem to work at all. Got my money back and bought the Honda sensor at hparts.com for $106. Been fine ever since, and that's about a year now. Just my experience. YMMV
