Home Insurance - any suggestions on who to use or who to stay far far far away from?

I have mentioned this on CP previously, an insurance broker friend has told me to shop around your car and home insurances every few years, similar to you shopping around for cell phone plans. Often companies will offer new acquisition discounts for customers to switch over from their competitors.

Let me know what you find through a broker. SquareOne seems like the best coverage at reasonable rates in contrast to TD. Anyone a current customer who has claims experience with them?
