They were fairly well liked up until recently due to the nice exterior design. It's possible that this is forum people overreacting... but people do share photos of the after effect.

I think ClipperCreek, Autel, Chargepoint are ones I've heard of discussed over there & have popped out in my mind. Those are physically solid. Emporia is also getting into the space and stands out for having special features like peak management & integrating with the rest of their home energy management hardware, at an attractive price point.

Check the recent history on that sub for discussion threads.

There's a subreddit for these questions btw, r/evcharging. While a lot of the advice is more NEC focused, there is a lot of knowledge of EVSE that is generalizable to Canada. Also the EVSE advice is more focused than you've gotten in this post.

Looks like you've been well taken care of.

Few things that haven't been mentioned here in this thread, but are well-known over in that sub:

• there's been a rash of GrizzlE fires due to their crappy terminal block design and questionable quality control. Fortunately the metal case has done a good job of containing those fires, I guess
• it's critical to use a torque screwdriver on the terminals on your breaker and on the EVSE terminals, and torque to specifications. with the amount of current involved in charging your splices need to be rock solid. on the same note you want to make sure any wire nuts are twisted all the way/have the appropriate amount of insulation stripped off per manufacturer specs.

(Another discussion there is suspicion of how good of a job ETL and UL are actually doing on vetting EVSEs, which has led me to prefer EVSEs from more established manufacturers)
