OSH Park

Above and beyond

Unlike a previous reviewer, who also had an issue with the thickness of the PCB they selected and could not even get a refund, I was offered a new, fixed order free of charge. The service was cheap, had fairly quick shipping for both of my orders, and the PCBs are solid quality, so I have no complaints and only praise. If I ever need a PCB, I will remember to check OSH Park first.

Outstanding service

I've been using OSHPark for 11 years, and I'm really impressed by their board quality and their outstanding customer service. I recently had an issue where some Super Swift service boards were delayed, and Chris very quickly solved the problem by upgrading shipping for my order. Issues with my OSHPark orders are rare, but the staff have always been super helpful when issues do arise. I strongly value the fact that the boards are fab'd in the US.

Amazing

Absolutely amazing. Ordering 3 small parts from The Netherlands and got an automatic upgrade to super swift service, because there was still space left on it. Also no shipping costs.

Wrong Product Bad service attitude

Very bad experience with the first order. Never again! Wrong thickness and very bad attitude on emails, saying it was my mistake for wrong order after we confirmed that I didn't made a mistake on order.

I had ordered some boards from the projects that they already have in their site. There is nowhere to change settings for the ordered PCB or anything that says to do so. My order came after one and a half months and the boards were wrong thickness. I sent photos and their customer service said it was my fault that I didn't tell them the thickness. I said it's not possible to change anything or say somewhere what thickness I wanted. The man I talked to kept saying it's my fault and they didn't refund me so this was my first and last experience with them.

Amazing for small PCBs

Incredible service, beautiful boards, quick turnaround, very easy pricing, free postage, ENIG as standard. What's not to like? If you are in the US you have probably already used OSH Park and if you haven't yet, then you probably should.

Great Customer Service

They already have a really fast turnaround time and their PCB quality is pretty unmatched. On my most recent order, they emailed me saying they had extra space on their "super swift" panel, and they placed my designs on it for free faster processing!

The Best

I've used OSHPARK for years and the quality and turn around time is unbeatable. Prices espec with a medium run are reasonable and whilst not being the cheapest the quality and consistency is superb. I wouldn't bother going anywhere else. Oh, re the folk who cant get their hole size right...you have to account for plating, not the fault of the manufacturer!

Of the minor issues I've had they've been quick to rectify and supply free product too. I even got 2 free PCB's from a recent order @ $20 ea.

Don't bother looking anywhere else unless you're going into the 1000's then CH will prob be best option as long as you can ensure consistent quality.

Holes too small

I was three quarters through building a time-critical prototype with OSH Park boards when I discovered that some of the holes were too small. The components wouldn't fit, and I had to scrap the boards and the components and face a delay I couldn't afford while seeking fresh boards somewhere else. Contacted support and they tried to claim that it was my fault, that I had specified the holes too small. After I took a bunch of careful photos and measurements solidly demonstrating that the holes really were smaller than the specified size, by more than the tolerance (and threatening them with a Paypal dispute) they gave me a refund. But nothing they could do could really make up for the delay.



In quick-turn prototype PCB manufacturing most of what the customer is paying for is the quick turn. I'd bought OSH Park's less expensive slower service, but even so it's five times what the Chinese would charge, and I bought it in order to get faster service than shipping from China in the midst of a pandemic. The damage from missing my schedule cannot be undone.



I've had several other orders made by OSH Park over the last few years, and in the past they've always had good quality and I've had no complaints. That and the fact I did end up getting the refund I asked for in this case, is why I'm saying two stars instead of one. But I intend never to do business with them again because when I needed them to come through in a pinch, they wasted time I didn't have to spare.

Good for protos but a little cheap

I'm not super happy with them. All the hole sizes were too small, I think they confused finished vs unfinished.

The purple solder-mask is attacked by cleaning with isopropyl alcohol, so it's a cheap mask they use. Dark and hard to see as well. Copper is thin too for the IPC 1oz minimum spec. The vias have little plating up. I just found the boards a bit too cheap compared to other companies.

The orders take a really long time international shipping USPS to Canada- but that is low cost. So it's around 2 weeks for fab and another few weeks shipping.

Communication and customer support for questions is excellent, fast response.

Fantastic service

I've had 5 designs fabricated by OSH...every one has been made exactly to my specifications. The price is reasonable and turnaround time is pretty quick for the price. One order was damaged in the mail, and OSH immediately shipped me new boards at no extra cost. Definitely my go-to manufacturer for hobby boards.
