I've purchased two different cables now, both ended up not working within a few months. I'm guessing it's due to getting bent at the lightening end. Any recommendations for a cord that can handle some bending?
Got a tip for us?

When it comes to iPhone accessories, I almost always go Anker. Not only will you get a high quality item, they also have amazing customer service and a lifetime warranty in the event that the cord does break or stop working. They'll just send you a new one.

I have used the Anker 6 foot for about 2 years. They go on sale for like $10
This seems to be the best in terms of reviews, I think I'll go for it!
Thank you for the link as well.

While I have no experience with this style cable, I'll also vote for Anker as a good brand to choose. Haven't ever had a problem with any of my Anker devices.
I've also been happy with Aukey, Monoprice (see monoprice.com), CableMatters, and even AmazonBasics.

I've come to realize that Aukey products look decent, but the quality can't touch Anker.
I have an iPad Pro that doesn't like any of the old chargers. I ended up with this:
iPhone Charger Cable, Anker USB C to Lightning Cable [6ft Apple Mfi Certified] Powerline+ II Nylon Braided Cable for iPhone SE / 11 Pro/X/XS/XR / 8 Plus/AirPods Pro, Supports Power Delivery (Upgraded) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XMBR4CC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabc_WRUPFbS42GR1C?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
It feels super sturdy around the plugs and the braided cord is nice.

Yep. You'll need a brick with a USB-C plug in. Though you can keep using the 5W but you won't get any fast charge features.
I’ve always gone with Anker, but I picked up a JSAUX car charger back in January just because it matched the interior of my car. Came with a 3 ft usb c to usb c cable for my iPad and no issues with it since then so I got two 6 foot lightening to usb c from them on Amazon a few weeks ago. They seem really good as well so far.
There are also coupons available at the moment plus a promo for 30% off a 20w wall charger (also a coupon for that too) if you get the cable and the charger. I did also get that 20w and works well for me too.
