Default Boolean

I've been following another of David Mitchell's great tutorials on Interiors and booleans seem to give spurious results a lot fo times - In David's tutorial it even crashes LW!

Is there a better boolean plug in that people recommend?

Actually, the boolean operation is a bit tricky to use. I sometimes hide everything that isn't required for the operation and usually it works fine, sometimes if you just move or rotate the cutter just a bit it will work also.
