I don't think there is a "best". They all have different flavors. I would say the most famous are the ADA, MXR M117, and the BOSS BF2. I have an old MIJ black-label BF-2 I use a lot. It is very versatile. I also use a Moog Moogerfooger MF-108M Cluster Flux, which is the best flanger I have ever owned. I got the MOOG after getting frustrated with the MXR M117. The MXR has a volume drop when engaged, the MOOG has a knob for variable output level.
Like any piece of gear, it depends on what you are looking for sound wise and your budget.

I like the Electric Mistress. Not the best built pedals, but they sound great at what they do . . . everything from light chorus to heavy whooshing flangey feedback. I find it easy to get Police-y or Gilmore-y sounds which are most of what I use a flanger for.Join me in the fight against muscular atrophy!

Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.
