my pedalboard's been on its last legs for a minute now, and I knew my next big purchase was a pro pedalboard. After looking at a bunch of boards including pedaltrain and Trailer Trash, I decided to go with a LyT 32 from Lyt Pedalboards.
and since I was going whole hog I ordered the LyTcase as well, which is a custom flight case to hold the pedalboard. Total cost was $229.00
The pedalboard and case arrived in under a week, manufacture looked good. Came with an ample supply of velcro carpet to cover the entire board except under the tier. The hook part of the velcro they send wasn't enough to hold my pedals as securely as I wanted, so I bought some industrial velcro from Home Depot and that covered everything I needed including under the tier so I could mount my power supply underneath.
I am very happy with this board. I currently have 10 pedals in my signal path and my old pedalboard was getting cramped to say the least. I had to shoehorn a couple of my pedals in which made for interesting contortions in a live setting to change my tone. My pedals are now very ergonomic and they are all oriented as they should be enabling me to stomp more and aim less. My bandmates have noticed a difference, I have noticed a difference, and I love this pedalboard.
Pros -
ergonomically sound
space-saving with the tier if you use a pedal power supply like a DC Brick or G-bus.
sturdy (I'm a big dude and stomp with impunity).
case is well built - this is no CNB case (and just after I got mine they revised the case construction to make it even sturdier)
Cons -
no onboard power
board/case/pedals gets HEAVY (but I'm a big dude and would rather sweat moving gear than sweat it getting damaged)
not enough velcro supplied for extensive pedal configs
If I lost this pedalboard I would replace it with the exact same model. You should buy one.

I'm not getting any compensation for my opinion, nor do I work for LyT.
