Default Best .rar Extractor?

I have some .rar files and Im currently unzipping them with 7zip. It works sometimes, but there are also times it should work, but it will give me errors or say one of the files are corrupt? I heard .rar are rarely messed up or corrupted so thats why I ask about which extractor is the best.... Thanks

WinRAR is a great tool. It does say that it's a trial, however you can continue to use it afterwards, it just tells you that you are over the trial period.

I have both WinRar and WinZip. I prefer WinRar.
