the answer is climate dependent for many varieties. e.g. in NSW and tassie, Braeburn apples rate well; here (and where kuffelcreek are) they're terrible.

if you want lots of apples or are extremely low chill - those varieties will be good. Anna takes a few years to get going. I don't think anyone will argue they are the best tasting apples for climates with chill

My mum has a few apple trees growing, down near Frankston just SE of Melbourne. Sorry, I forget what types they are! .... (I think that one is a Pink Lady,but don't hold me to that,I'm only guessing.) By the way, in case you're interested,,, she also has one that is half apple half pear tree. .. & Yes, it is worth the effort.
