I used it a while back when I worked at a place that used Linux desktops. I liked it over Ubuntu since yum/rpm is so much faster than deb/apt and because they just seemed to give you a good solid system that just worked. They weren't "trying too hard."
I also like Gnome 3. I realize I may be a minority there, but it was/is a nice UI that just did the basics well: fast, doesn't look like Windows 95 or otherwise like crap, launches my apps, lets me organize them, and otherwise stays out of my way. It supports some nice stuff copied from OS X like being able to move your mouse to a corner and seeing all your windows, etc., and did not seem bug-ridden.
I never had quality problems. Installed fine, worked fine. Hardware support was decent, though these were Dell machines which historically tend to run Linux well. Upgrading was a pain though. I would basically just reinstall.
I was using Fedora 16 through 19.
