It did the trick combined with a COB LED light but I've got it in a 2x2 veg tent now and that seems to be a better fit. Still a good light for a fair price.
As I've never grown with anything else, I have no comparison, and this thing did admirably. I will note though, that the bud is rather larfy, and dries down to about 15% of initial wet weight.
These were my 1st lights -- overpaid compared to what is out now. They work well. I had one flame out - but it was replaced no worries. The other 3 have been blurpurling along for about a year and half now.
