It has been verified to work in a manner consistent with quantum
mechanics: http://news.usc.edu/52818/large-scale-quantum-chip-validated/

"A team of scientists at USC has verified that quantum effects are
indeed at play in the first commercial quantum optimization processor.

The team demonstrated that the D-Wave processor housed at the
USC-Lockheed Martin Quantum Computing Center behaves in a manner that
indicates that quantum mechanics has a functional role in the way it
works. The demonstration involved a small subset of the chip’s 128 qubits."

Cheers, Jamon
