The 2nd and 3rd look like cheaper plastics with one having middling reviews and the other only has 2 reviews.
More expensive is the cheaper ridgid model with middling reviews. Husky is more expensive (I have no experience with it personally, but most husky tools are comparable to harbor freight tools and I don't buy them unless I need a disposable/give away tool).
The comparable ridgid is $24 more at this price and I would save the money and buy the Milwaukee. It has good reviews and is the same plastics they use for fish tapes and such (so you can chuck it in the back of a van and it won't hurt it).
The milwaukee also has a hex drive option for power feed that looks like you could easily hook a drill to it. Maybe pair an m12 drill with the clutch set lower.

I think husky's socket sets are perfectly fine for my level of use and I also have Harbor freight impact sockets and odd sizes like 32mm for Honda CV joints that were cheap and have been with me for over 10 years.
Each brand has a strength and weakness. I didn't say Husky was junk either, just that in my mind they are a 3rd tier tool brand that serves a purpose. I like to live in that second tier with some intermingled 1st tier (when I find a good deal) and 3rd tier (when I need something cheap).
To swing back around though. My main point was the Milwaukee tool for less money than the Husky is easily a no brainer. Milwaukee is built with contractors/jobsite abuse in mind and Husky is built with homeowners/residence use in mind.
That being said I would choose this Milwaukee option if I were in the market for a power snake. Only because of the price difference.
I think I the style of the grip on the rigid is more comfortable.
