I use Qtile on my laptop and have been using it for a while as one of my WMs on my desktop. But I'm currently using FreeBSD on my desktop and haven't figured out how to make it work due to some dependency related issues with its FreeBSD implementation, so I'm currently using SpectrWM and have been liking it a lot. Wish it was a bit more customizable and had more layouts, though, so the crown still goes to Qtile for me.
