Door handle jig

Can anyone recommend to me a good door handle jig? I've looked at a few including the Kreg but I'm wary of online reviews.

I like the Kreg stuff. If this is for your kitchen door handles then I would knock up your own jig out of scrap if the handle placements are common. I have done this a number of times in the past and made up a bench hook type plate with the screw guides to flip for left and right doors. A QR clamp makes it easy.

I thought about knocking up my own but veering towards the Kreg to be honest. Can't be arsed.

you can even make up a jig out of just a piece of scrap and screw some kd blocks to it. couple on top couple in the side and use them to acheive repeated screw positions.
