Recommendations for 12V Oil Extractor Pump?

Amazon lists dozens of 12V extractor pumps for under $50 that look like clones of a few different designs. For most I don't see any differences besides the price or color. I'd appreciate recommendations for pumps that didn't leak, and won't require unplanned trips to the hardware store for additional hose or fittings to extract oil from the C300 engine.

I would ditch the 12V and go manual pump:

Mytivac.That's what I use. With the oil filter on top and sucking out the old oil thru the dipstick, changing oil is a snap on these cars.

Yeah...I bought the cheap one ($28 shipped) on Amazon. If I have to throw it away after one use, it still beats being fleeced out of $200+ to "check horn function, check brake fluid level," etc in the B Service. Don't want to store a bulky oily manual extractor.
Thanks for all the input, folks.
