Buy cheap, buy twice.
Unfortunately there are a lot of dubious bearing kits around and most are just not worth buying.
When I did mine a couple of years ago, I bought an SKF bearing kit from Euro Car Parts and had no problems at all, but I know of somebody who bought an unbranded bearing on the Internet which failed after less than 150 miles; he eventually got his money back but there was no compensation for the week his car was off the road, or the £175 he had paid to have the bearing fitted.
Changing the bearing is not a particularly easy job and certainly not one I would want to do twice.
