There is nothing wrong with the standard handbrake when it is in good condition and set up properly. There are numerous threads on here telling how to adjust it correctly.

Mine works well. Took the garage 3 attempts but in the end it worked well.

Mine works well, but I do take off the discs every 4-6 months and clean up the inner drum as it seems to collect dust and rust quickly, never had any problems since doing this and adjusting up the shoes properly.
