I like Opera the best. It's fast (faster than Chrome when I've tested in Sunspider, though only by about 10ms total.) and works well. It allows sidebar tabs, and while there's no tree-style tab addon (the one thing I miss from firefox) it's good enough. Chrome only has tabs on top, which is a massive waste of space with a widescreen monitor.

In Opera there is a tree-style tab-like option. It is the "Window" sidebar. Usually this on is hidden, but it is easily shown. I haven't used the firefox addon, but this might be what you were looking for.
