Most here will recommend Lite-On CDRW's. I have two and have been pleased. I also have a couple of cheapies that have worked just as well.
I think a more important issue is the software that they come with. I prefer Nero and therefore pick drives that come with Nero software. Chas

This is a better drive, and cheaper:

Lite-On CD-RWs are the only brand I use. They're fast, good quality and the lowest priced of the decent brands. Sure, Plextor makes a better drive, but you're gonna pay for it.
