Gtmetrix & webpage test are the only two that I normally refer people to when they have issues. One of the main reasons I refer gtmetrix is because it helps quite a bit with troubleshooting, if not for that site and it's constant measurements, I wouldn't see pagespeed scores nearly as high as they are now on my sites, such as these scores:

http://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.vide...t.com/dr6Q02hf

Also with gtmetrix you have the choice between firefox & google chrome, with different locations & speeds to pick from, just like with webpagetest.

I just try to keep it as simple as possible, when helping someone who is admittedly a novice on web page speed optimization.

"You pick the one, right tool."

I call a test site suspect if it's giving me all rainbows and sugar plums, while at the same time meehan is showing what's actually wrong. Plus, it's just going to confuse the novice.
