Picking the "best" 40m beam is very hard on 40m and requires a
compromise unless you have a big tower, a big rotor, moderate wind/ice
exposure, height limitations and CW/SSB only vs. wideband CW+SSB. Oh,
and a serious budget of course. That's why there are so many different
designs in the market.
A bit of the decision process for both the beam type selection and
suppler may be found here for those interested:
