Charge controller recommendations

I have a small solar charging system consisting of two 12v 75w panels wired in series and a failing cheap MPPT charge controller. I may be acquiring another identical panel too. I'm currently leaning toward the Morningstar 15 Amp MPPT model. I looked at that Eco-worthy model that several forum members purchased, but am now a bit gun shy about off brands. I don't think it could handle a third panel in series either. Bluesky doesn't appear to offer anything that fits my system at a reasonable price point. I couldn't tell what Rogue had available.

I also seem to remember that my panels can be configured for 6v operation which may open the door to some of those marginal controllers.

Any thoughts or recommendations?
