Fluke makes great meters, those are the only handhelds they have at work, but the cost is too rich for my blood.
When Harbor Freight used to give away their DMMs, I'd grab those. A few have died over the years, but I still have one that works and it's my daily driver. Only downside is the input resistance is 1M. I have an Extech I bought from Fry's years ago and I only use that one when I need a 10M input resistance because there are things about it I don't like. We're not making precision measurements here. If the meter was off by 5% it wouldn't matter. I think I'll grab one of those $17 DMMs from Amazon.
