When installing a new set of taps on to an existing basin which tool do you use for the job?

Fixed basin wrench or adjustable basin wrench??

I use adjustables, but this is mainly because in all my years I have never found a fixed basin wrench that actually fits, or isnt too bulky to fit.

Im interested to hear what others use...
