OpenSuse uses it, and I run it as my root partition. The snapshots are a wonderful system restore mechanism, and I have a cron script to snapshot root after a boot.
The only time I've ever had a problem with btrfs was after a power failure, but btrfsck worked to fix it (although since it isn't in fsck.btrfs, it doesn't automatically run on boot, so I had to use the repair partition).
I've been using it for a year. I have around 8 hard disks in my machine, running half a dozen filesystems from fat32 to ntfs to ext4 to xfs, but I like btrfs the most of the native linux FSes atm.
