What anchor should I buy?

the true test of an anchor.

I wouldn't say the true test. But it's one of the many characteristics
of a good anchor in addition to the ones you snipped, which include:

My Bruce works well in clay. Also works in mud and sand and just about
everything. [...] It sets and resets fast, holds well and is easy to break out.

If an anchor is not easy to break out, I'd only be using it for either
times when I plan to anchor for days or weeks on end and not just an
overnight or two like I usually do or as a second anchor for when the
wind kicks up. It would not be my primary anchor.
