Interesting, I have had extremely few false positives, and more complaints about their 1 minute timeout after activating :/
I'm in this camp as well. I've had one motion sensor of theirs since June that supplemented an IKEA one to catch movement at a different part of my hallway and had no real problems with it. I ordered another couple recently as well and put one in my kitchen and another in my office.
I might have been seeing odd behaviour on my office one but I've not had time to investigate it though and I was more inclined to believe it was bad positioning than a faulty sensor.
I did notice though that if I enter the room just as the lights are turning off then the lights don't turn back on but I just go straight to the light switch and do a quick turn off and back on again job to fix it.
