OWC MBA SSD Upgrade

Hi All,
Thinking of purchasing a OWC 240GB SSD for my 2012 11" MBA, has anyone had any experience with these? I have heard mixed reviews about them.

Thanks

OWC's quality control seems to be inconsistent. There have been a couple threads here recently on this. Here is one.

That is the second thread I recall with that same sizing issue. OWC claims they have remedied the issue... who knows. They do seem to be good about exchanging defective products, so I suppose there is relatively little risk.

Yeah thinking of getting the 240 or 250 gb (can't remember which one it is now) but are there any other options to upgrade ssd?

There is a post here with links to places you can buy the OEM Apple drive.
