I find Manns (and other water based polyurethane stuff) gives a bit of a plasticky finish.
Fiddies Clear Glaze is my go-to hard wearing, waterproof wood finish. Behaves like Osmo when applying, it soaks in like an oil rather than sitting on top like the Manns. Looks like an Osmo finish when it’s done too, but is much more robust.

The Manns varnish from Wood Finishes Direct is good. I've used their water-based floor varnish which is obviously made to be hard-wearing.
