NCSC: I actually did a fairly thorough comparison of several manufacturers for my boat. I thought that FX had the best deal for the money in terms of what I was looking for. I was specifically shopping for an offshore weight sail with 2 reef points, a cunningham, reefing pads, UV cover and patches. Here is my list. (Sorry, Excel dosen't transfer onto this site perfectly). I am going to order the FX.
