I worked in an aerospace in a lab and made thousands of flares over the years. Some with simple flaring tools and others with expensive ones on copper, aluminum, mild & stainless steels.

At home, I have a Ridgid 345-DL and have been very impressed with the ease and quality of the flares it makes. As mentioned above for a double flare, make sure everything is square and get your depths right and you'll get a great flare every time.
