Menstrual Cups

Though I (as we all) hope our periods are non existent this month, signaling pregnancy, fact of the matter is every stupid month there the red headed b**** is. I personally use pads, and a discussion has been brought up with a friend over using cloth/ washable pads v a menstrual cup. The cloth pad thing kind of skeeves me out, but i have been considering a cup for a while now. She has used the diva and while it wasn't uncomfortable she felt there as better out there. Do any of you use them? If so, what brand would you recommend and why?
