I've had everything over the years -- an original WV (1996 after a collarbone hit), a WV Gold, a WV Plat, a Riddell Power (that I used for years), and original Force 3. I've sold or given away everything now except the Force 3, which I will give away at some point.

I bought the Douglas recently and it's my daily driver. Not cheap, but considering you get paid to umpire and you are only going to buy one of these and it will last years, get the one you think will work best for you.

Pros on the Douglas - very lightweight, hard shell, good protection.

Cons - it's not cheap. Again, it's a one time purchase. Don't skimp here.
