I think you can include Halcyon on this list. Anytime I have called them to ask a question I get a live person who wants to help. The couple of times I have needed service it was fast turn around and at no charge.Some divers refer to the high price of of buying Halcyon gear as "paying the H tax".
Halycyon has a following, but it is debatable if their gear is any better than competing brands.
If you are looking for gear I would recommend going with companies that are known for their customer service...Dive Rite, Edge-Hog, DGX, Deep 6, are all at the top of my list.
