personally i like the first one (but you will either need THREE hands or a buddy to help). If you have someone to help, they can crank down on the tool while you remove the spring, retainer, etc = less time tightening the spring with a socket, etc. However the crane looks good because it can do both I/E valve springs at once - now i'm torn, lol (which one to get...hmmm)
