This may sound like I'm being flippant, but I'm not.

Two good tuners:

1.  The one built into your transceiver.  (Yours has one, right?)

2.  The pi-network built into your amplifier.

That's all I've ever needed.  My kilobucks come too hard to spend them
on tuners.  I spend the money on the antennas, getting them as close
to 50 ohms as possible, installing low loss coax and letting tuners 1
and 2 do the rest.
