Dell - always had decent "every day" computers from them but the newer ones don't seem as reliable so I may have to re-evaluate this!

Campagnolo. Don't care if it's better or worse than Shimano, I just like it on a road bike.
John Deere. We've had a couple, and again, no idea if they're better or worse, but they've run well for us.

The Co-operative.
No, really, flipping brilliant idea. Room for improvement on the implementation, of course, but still several orders of magnitude less evil than Tesco et al.

Subaru - always liked the look etc since McCrae, our one now is rock solid, would get another without a doubt.
Arcteryx - Just works, well. And I've worked for several of their immediate rivals inc North Face
Shimano - just know it'll work
John Deere - I wear the trucker cap to prove it too!
Volkl Skis - lots of 'Euro' graphics, but you know they will be bomber and work well.
Carhartt - love the work/urban styling, actually fits me, lasts
Commencal - look the goods imo, handle amazing, had no dramas with mine (though others have). I'd have no worries getting another.
Orange - The Vit T was superb. The 5, irrespective of it's weight/looks/noise works bloody well. Peaty winning on them in the day certainly helps.
Hmmm... Think looking at it, their is a lot to do with brand that evolve from solid backgrounds and work, rather than trying to revolutionise their fields constantly...
