Any decent make will do, I like Beta, partly due to a local place stocking them at sensible money. Snap on are good but expensive. Old makes like Draper now just buy in bulk from China and rebrand so are often not the best quality.

PB Swiss are decent.

I think the biggest problem with hex keys is when people don't appreciate that there are metric & imperial sizes. Sometimes, using the wrong type can mean you're using a key that's almost the right size, but not quite.

Another vote for beta, my set are over ten years old now and see a lot of use on all sorts of things and they are still good. As said above, makes like draper are not reliable anymore and it's worth paying a few quid more usually.
