It is a must if you are going to be putting on the miles, if I ride a week with a worn out chain I’ll end up replacing the cassette as well as the chain.

The best one and most accurate I have found is made by Parktool.

My opinion is they take the longest to wear out (1.5 to 2x longer), quitest and all most never break. Good for training and racing.
