02 Sensor Recommedation

I have a 2005 S with 135K miles. Replaced the rear 02 sensor 15 months ago with an Amazon replacement part. Just got a P2270 and P0137 code an need to replace this rear sensor again. Can anyone recommend a brand name that would last longer than this junk replacement part? I'm leaning towards the NGK unit but would like to hear from the board what they feel is best.
Thank you in advance!!

That's the one I bought 3 years ago to replace my defective post cat sensor. Reasonably easy to install without the "special" tool and cleared the codes. Good replacement part.

NTK is is OEM supplier for Mini. There are extensive threads on this subject showing that this part is a reliable substitute for the Mini part number.
