We tried and reviewed all the workbooks:Grubers, McGraw, Princeton, Barron. My two teenagers thought that Kaplan did the best job of preparing for the SAT.

However the practice tests in the book are not exactly like the real SAT. For that you need the Official SAT Study Guide.

It's got everything you need to know, and my scores did increase.

I had a different version of this book, but I can assume they are very similar.
The bulk of the book is just OK. There are some very, very useful tips in there, though, which I used on the SAT to help answer questions faster and guess more effectively.
However, the concept index at the end of the book was what made the book worth every penny. It has every SAT math concept mashed together. Studying a few of those a night helped me boost my math score tremendously.
The index won't help you nail those extra tough questions, but it will make sure you're well versed in all the concepts needed. Helped me score a 690(math) on my first SAT.
