Might have to give Sheese another go, I haven't eaten it for about a decade so can imagine it's changed a bit! Not tried the Koko stuff yet. I don't really eat an awful lot of cheese but the Sainsbury's own brand cheddar is generally my go to.
Edit: Iamnutok looks great, I'm in Leeds until lockdown is over and £20 minimum order is a bit much though.
I used not to like Sheese when I first came across it, but they've changed and improved it a lot. Obviously, it may not be your thing if you're not into the (now largely) coconut oil-based analogues, but of those I think it's currently the best. I don't normally buy them very often, but to keep myself amused during the lockdown I've been trying out a few.
I generally like all the cream Sheeses, and of the solid varieties I thought the mature cheddar, red onion, and Gouda ones were the best I tried. The Gouda analogue is *very* smellycheesy; if you don't like smellycheesy smells in your fridge, don't get it. I don't know how dairy Gouda tastes any more, but I enjoyed the Sheese in some soups I made, like onion soup.
I still massively prefer cashew cheeses, which to my mind are actually cheeses and not analogues. Incidentally, I AM NUT OK! have quite a few reduced products (by 50p):

Still pricey, but it's all lovely. The 'Oh, Grate!' 'parmesan' is delicious; not really like parmesan, just better.
