I chose Pullrite over Demco. Very happy with my choice thus far.
You never need a slider, until you do. I figure this is hopefully the only hitch I'll have to ever buy, or at least for a long time. Having the auto-slider is a peace of mind.
One thing the Demco has as an advantage over the Pullrite, in my opinion, is the capture plate. Demco's capture plate is part of the hitch. Pullrite's capture plate you purchase separately, and depending on your pin, you have to purchase a different one.
Demco slide operates with a gear. Pullrite slides and rotates between two way tubes. Don't know about maintenance with Demco, but Pullrite only requires WD-40 spray on the way tubes, and the turntable shaft.
At the end of the day, I think they are both good choices. I just decided to go with the Pullrite and happy with the choice.
