Dead on arrival
Soldered it into a circuit, outputs were shorted on power input. Bad wave soldering whoever made it. Looks like a clone.

Works quite well with Arduino
This product is the quality one would expect from Adafruit. It was quite easy to use and works very well. I did discover that the PWM output is easily picked-up by a mini audio amplifier I had sitting next to it on a breadboard. I moved the controller away and that fixed the problem. I would suggest that if you have a similar application you should use shielded wire to connect the Arduino PWM pins to the motor controller.

Simple, compact, 12v, flip-flop/reversing driver
When the IR switch failed on my old CCTV box camera the only available replacement was too heavy for the original drive. I was able to use the assembled module to interface the drive and the new IR switch using resisters to limit the current draw. As shown in the attached pic the module nested nicely in the limited space.
