You'll get a lot of opinions on this. That being said, here's mine.
I'm so old that I remember playing through Fender Reverb units. Then, like everyone else, I used everything else including a whole lot of rack gear reverb. And on and on. Lexicon stuff was pretty nice, and still is. The reverbs that a lot of high-end studios use are another category entirely.
All that being said, I found my thrill on reverb hill when I plugged into a 2-knob Wet Reverb pedal. A few seconds playing through it convinced this old guy that it was the ticket. I love it's simplicity - 2 knobs on a box slightly larger than a pack of cigarettes. And they got it right. Highly recommended. |

I have a Digitech RV7 stereo reverb. It is Lexicon reverbs in a "stomp box".
I use a POD X3 for steel. I bought the RV7 for guitar but I've tried it with my steel and it works great. Its nice to have the Lexicon reverb in a pedal rather than the usual rack type unit. |

| Another vote for the Neunaber Wet Reverb. I ordered the 2 knob mono version a few weeks ago, and they mistakenly sent me the 3 knob version (stereo vs. mono, includes a tone knob). When I offered to pay the difference, Brian N. told me just to keep the stereo version and they'd eat the cost. Nice people, and the reverb is really gorgeous. I'm a fan. |

| Yep, the Wet pedal is the one you want. I also have a build your own clone 'belton brick' reverb, that is a nice two knob. They were designed by the same guy, and both sound great, but built on different chips. |

| The Boss '63 Fender Reverb Pedal, sounds like my spring reverb on my Fender amps. Works great when I'm playing steel in the reverb side of my Twin, and hook it up for guitar in the normal channel. I liked it so much that I bought a second one for bouncing stages, that crash the springs on the Fenders. |

I have used Lexicon, Alesis, Roland, Boss and about any other reverb you can think of. The Wet Reverb is ,by far, the best. 2 knobs and simple.

For bandstand use, I really enjoy the EH Holy Grail Nano. Little bitty, one knob, simple.

The TC Hall of fame has a number of different type reverbs that are pleasing. I like the plate setting.
However, I also like the Boss Fender 65 reverb pedal as it is pretty close to a real Fender long spring reverb. Also, most reverb pedals are good so you can't go wrong with any that are mentioned here. |

I loved my HoF so much, I sold off my Wet. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

I prefer the rich fat lush hall reverbs like those produced on the new digital reverb units. Many prefer the tube spring type reverb sound and that's a different beast. Perhaps that's one of the reasons why some people choose the HOF over the Wet reverb. Both types of reverb sound great and the Fender tube reverb was my favorite until I heard a Lexicon. Even on my silver face Princeton Reverb I turn the amp reverb off and use the HOF instead.

I like the reverb and delay in one pedal together.

For a pedal, my favorite (which I don't own) is the 70's plate setting on the Strymon Flint. After that I like the mono wet pedal, which I do own.
Mostly though I prefer real tube driven spring reverb, so long as it's not too splashy. My Premier tank and FYD octal reverb preamp are both good about that. They both have dwell/drive controls. |

I don't think there is a "Best" reverb pedal.
I currently own a Strymon Flint, Strymon Blue Sky, Neunabertechnology Wet Reverb, and a Earthquake Device Dispatch Master Delay/Reverb pedal.
Each one does something the others do not do. If I could only keep one of them, I would probably keep the Strymon Flint pedal, because I really like the Tremelo/Reverb combos.
