How long have you been with them?
I've heard that their customer support can be less than cordial.

#9Linode.
Found their machines to be faster than Slicehost, the service to be superb, they have datacenters around the world that you can select to be your location (I chose London, UK as my users are here), and recently they upgraded the RAM for free in all VMs they run.
Hosting with them has been a delight. Slicehost are a very close 2nd in my opinion, but Linode are #1 currently.

#10Slicehost.
All of my personal sites are on Slicehost, and I can't say enough good things about them. I've also got one client site on Heroku and, while there has been a learning curve, I really love the amount of server administration I have to do (which is "none").
