MongoEngine vs MongoKit for Django

Have you used MongoEngine or MongoKit with Django? Which one do you prefer?

Background:

I'm developing a new site and have experience with normal Django development but for the kind of data I'll be using the MongoDB will be better suited than a SQL database.

I'm using Python 2.7 and can compile/install anything on my host so that's not a problem.

In my eyes mongoengine is more simular to django db model style as mongokit but mongokit represent more the style and layout of your raw mongodb model. +1 for MongoKit

If you able to choice beside this two libs than I would take django-mongodb-engine because it is special builded for django and the admin interface.
