Ordered a small PCB for a piece of optical test equipment we needed to make several of. Website interface was easy and the boards, exactly as expected, arrived at the quoted date. Very pleased. Quality looks good, right down to the screen print. Thanks for making it easy!

Everything went smoothly, and the results were excellent. I will not send China my $$$ ever again, and BasicPCB makes it so that I can still afford to keep my business running with US made boards!! No other US supplier I have found could deliver such perfect boards at BasicPCB's price - Thank you BasicPCB, without you I'd be out of business!!!! :)

I just received my the boards for my second design. I am so pleased with the boards I received. I've been searching for a PCB site I can order my boards from and basic pcb does a great job. My next design will be sent to basic pcb for a couple of reasons, the board quality, accuracy and speed of delivery.

Boards were of a good price, and were of good quality. There was a slight delay, but due to covid-19 this was to be expected.

After emailing their representatives, I found out that they are a panel-pooling service, and manufacture their boards at Advanced Circuits in Aurora, Colorado.
Their website looks shady, and lacks some useful information, but considering how small they were, it makes sense. A useful feature that I would recommend is better detection of gerber layers. Other fabs automatically detect the different layers, as they are often annotated by the output software (i.e. kicad). If you do want to buy american, then this is the place to do it though.

So I designed a board to be made for the first time. When I sent it off, I was immediately emailed that I was missing some files. I submitted the files, but was missing others. these guys at BasicPCB showed me an extreme patience in the emails, explaining what I needed. Finally, they needed an outline of the circuit board. I thought it was already there, somewhere. Their own engineers figured out what it should be and did me a giant favor making it for me. It didn't take too long, and I got my boards in the mail. I am soooooo happy with their manufacturing quality. I will absolutely use BasicPCB again in the future. They did me a favor for a very low price. I am really beyond satisfied with their service. Thanks BasicPCB!

Very good experience overall. Ordering is easy, boards were fabbed correctly in all respects, of good quality, and arrived when promised. 4 stars only because the website has no way to track shipment (though I did receive an email notice of shipment via email, but also without tracking or shipper info).

Love using them - they are quick, the boards are beautiful, and the price is incredible. I have used them several times this yr for hobby projects and love their boards.

I have been working on a prototype circuit in my spare time and a few months back when I needed a PCB for it, I went to BasicPCB.com and had them fabricate one for me. I was so pleased with it that when the testing was done and changes to circuit were made I went back to BasicPCB.com for the second prototype. What a great product they shipped me! The PCB is of a Very High Quality and exactly as I ordered it. The fab time and shipping was quick, I had the PCB's delivered 1 week after ordering. What a pleasant surprise to have them that fast! And they worked perfectly! I couldn't be more pleased with the whole experience. The online quote and ordering process is easy!!! The price is great and its made in the USA! What more can you ask for? I will definitely order from BasicPCB again and again!

Great prices and reasonable lead time for USA-made boards

They are all they claim to be.
3 small boards, $4.65 and free shipping!!!!!
Easy upload of my gerber files, no hassle at all.
And the boards were PERFECT, not a single flaw.
I built one up right away, and it just works, no mods needed at all.
And USA based as well, you just can't beat this combination!
No longer will I buy my boards from China, it's now USA All The Way!!!!!
Thank you BasicPCB.com! You are just what we need. :)

I needed to order a small quantity of boards to test a new circuit. Although the price from BasicPCB was very low, the quality of the boards was excellent. I will definitely use them for future orders.

I had an early-morning idea for a board, that had simmered for a while, ironed out the details in background Digi-Key searches over the past few days. In an hour, one morning, I decided to just hunker down and workflow it out - CAD the pattern and components, do it into a schematic, then build a PCB.

Then I was left with a choice: do it with DirtyPCBs as usual, or give BasicPCB a try? Though BasicPCB doesn't have the board visualizer that DirtyPCBs has (it sure would be nice :) ), the site was just as easy to insert the design into and pay for. Even better - I can key in my dimensions for a quick quote, so I can tweak placement a bit to get a cheaper board done.

Boards arrived in about 10 total days (with their Value option). That's faster than DirtyPCBs + DHL shipping. Just as good, cheaper, faster. Definitely going to use them again for future boards.

PCB's are of good quality, great and competitive price. The processing time was a little longer than other services I have user, but still a good experience. The minimum quantity of 3 made it much easier to make the decision to choose basicpcb.

PC Boards are easy to order, prices are great, and boards arrived promptly, exactly as ordered. We have ordered from Basic PCB before and have never been disappointed.

I'm happy. The quality of the boards is perfect, and the turnaround time was as promised. The shipping was a little slow, but I got a tracking number immediately when I asked for it.
Yes they don't do plated slots but they tell you upfront, and when I sent a design with plated slots, they communicated nice and professionaly, changed the design for me, and shipped it without delay and additional cost. Thanks!

Fast, cheap, good quality PCBs. -1 star because they don't do plated slots.

I am glad that I found BasicPCB. I have used JLCPCB before. Now the international shipping is a major problem during covid-19 time, everything is extremely slow. I googled for PCB factories based in US and found BasicPCB. The website is simple, and does not have the fancy tracking animations as on the JLCPCB web site. But if this is what takes to keep cost low, I do not mind. The customer support is very responsive, and super easy to communicate with. The PCB quality is excellent. I am happy with it. In my case, as I mostly do two-layer small pieces for hobby projects, with free shipping, the cost is much lower than JLCPCB, and shipping is fast, even in Covid time. I will definitely use this place from now on.

I have never designed a pcb before, nor have I submitted a cad file to a manufacturer for pcb etching. This was a great first experience. My pcbs arrived fairly quickly, were inexpensive, and worked perfectly! I'll be placing additional orders soon. I highly recommend going with basicpcb.Com instead of dealing with the hassle of etching and drilling your own circuit boards.

This was my first experience putting together a PCB prototype to be professionally printed. I have already order 2 different designs and both came in perfect. They look great, very high quality. Their quoting process and gerber file upload was quick and easy. I will continue to use them for my PCB manufacturing in the future.

This is the first time we've ordered boards from them and were very satisfied. Very affordable boards for prototyping and quality was top notch. Boards were very small as well and they were still able to get them done. Boards arrived very quickly and timely. Will certainly be doing business with them again. Thanks!
