Just after a bit of input here guys.. Going to buy a double flaring tool and I noticed that some do 45 and other 37 degree flares?? I thought it would be universal, whats best? I came across this one from ATD , I thought it might be ok as I believe this one does bubble flares as well.. Its the very very minimum I would consider buying

What do you guys use?

To avoid confusion, the 37 degree flare is not limited to stainless. It can be steel or aluminum. If your vehicle is stock, all of the flares are 45 degree and the brake lines use a double flare.
I can't recommend a tool but I think you are on the right track. The ones you typically find at the parts store are junk.

Talkwrench the unit you are looking at looks way fancier than the one I use. Mine is the KD unit shown in the right margin of the ad you posted. It works well enough if you are careful and patient. Mine is probably closer to the junk Charlie is referring to than the one you are looking at.
