They refunded me a $100 purchase, no return required, when I was sent defective product. I've always found their customer service to be friendly.

This is a very odd sentence to read in the context of embedded development. Adafruit is a hardware company with makers as a target market. I find Adafruit's software to be a good bit better than most vendor software I've worked with. And when there are bugs, most of the time the bug ends up being someone else's fault. cough Espressif cough.
