I like the Ford adapter. But I carry the A2Z as a backup.

Definitely check out the video here to see the differences. The additional safety interlock combined with the improved ergonomics make it the undisputed favorite for me. It's not "just" a logo, it's an improvement. I would not use any adapter without that interlock, personally.

It's also not a bad price - sure MSRP is $200, but you can also get a discount using the 15% off promo code right on the page (https://www.ford.com/product/ford-fast-charging-adapter-nacs-p2999073032), and also use any FordPass Rewards points to further reduce the final price, unless you're in Arizona, Oklahoma, or Vermont, in which case your dealer will set pricing.

I concur with @Charge_Rob. The Ford-branded adapter made by Lectron is OEM approved.

The only other one I would consider right now isn't quite available yet. The adapter from Amphenol is the only connector on the market to be safety certified under UL 2252.
