Default Lens rental?

I'm debating renting a nice Canon lens (since I can't afford one yet!) and I'm wondering if anyone has recommendations on a good reputible lens rental company? I did a quick search and stumbled upon lensrental.com. Does anyone have any experience with this particular company?

Thanks in advance!!

Though I haven't used them myself, I know of several people who have and say they're definitely reputable.

I've got two more local rental places that work well, but that doesn't help you much...

I've used this company before: Rentglass.com - Lens rentals by mail for Canon and Nikon SLR cameras
it's been a few years but I had no problems with them at all.
