I have not used it yet but they are in perfect condition, as per the specifications on the item page. I’m also looking forward to building them into my projects.

In answer to the reviewer who complains of contact bounce, all mechanical encoders bounce. Properly designed software allows for this, achieving excellent results.

Fast delivery, no surprises, as usual. Once the encoder was soldered to the breakout[1] and wired to an Arduino, I copied/pasted the example code and all worked fine. Endlessly turning the encoder and using the integrated button provides quite a large amount of satisfaction, use with moderation ;) [1] https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/adafruit-i2c-qt-rotary-encoder-with-neopixel-stemma-qt-qwiic?variant=39341919141971

Hopeless! The rotary encoder has so much bounce that it is impossible to use for this function. (I'ved them before and have other makes working perfectly.) The switch and LEDs work properly but soldering up the pins without the proper board is quite tricky.

Nice little encoder with pushbutton. LED/Switch pins not being in the 2.54 spacing makes it a bit hard to use on a breadboard, but nothing some creative pin header soldering can't fix. LED colour accuracy is not the best.

The Dimensional Landings from the datasheet is bit tight, but that only makes the encoder fit on PCB better. It works fine otherwise and with little to no jitter on the encoder pins if filtered as per the datasheet.
