Of course, quality is subjective measure.  If needing very high quality, I would consider something by Evermotion.

But keep in mind, export from Xfrog is not just "one-click" operation.  I have found OBJ export almost unusable because way material zone handled.  3DS export no better because it truncates names to 8 letters.  LWO export is best of lot.  But some processing needs done after import, mainly concerning opacity maps.  Poser cannot directly use the Alpha channel from a TIFF, so you have to make transmap somehow if not furnished as such.  I usually copy alpha channel out to new file and save as PNG for to use as transparency map.
