I like them all
Except for Kalanov, which is the cheapest, crappiest Indian vodka.
Smirnoff is a loyal mixer workhorse, and Smirnoff Export Strength (100 proof) always does the trick . Gordons is cheap and very good for the price. Skyy isn't bad, and better than Svedka, Finlandia, and Danzka, but Absolut probably owns this price range. Three Olives is interesting, but it's English, and drinking English vodka is weird.
A notch above would be the trusty shooters and martini vodkas. Ketel One is overrated, Grey Goose deserves its reputation, and Belvedere is up there too. Level is good, but overmarketed. Ciroc is good, and undermarketed. My personal favourite here, though, would be Zyr. I like Stoli, but it's overrated too, and carries too much yuppie baggage. Stoli does do flavours pretty well (Stoli Bluberri ). I hear good things about Vox, but have never tried it. Hangar One lived up to its hype, though I've never tried it unflavoured.
For sipping, though, I like Armadale, Chopin, and perhaps my favourite vodka of them all, Jewel of Russia. Straight from the freezer, out of a chilled glass When I'm feeling particularly wealthy, I shoot the stuff too
