They don't look bad, they offer Cree,vero, and citizen all with meanwell drivers. Prices are fair to if the duty tax isn't to high.

These are made with same components the top US makers are using.

In what regards? Are they cobs or quantum boards? If they’re purple they ain’t worth the trouble.

Looking at the pricing on the ones that do indeed us Cree and stuff are close to the same price. I having a feeling you’ll spend more on shipping than the few dollars you save. Unless you have a different source.

I almost ordered from them last year off of alibaba , I ended up going with http://szidealight.com/
I think Panda is legit I follow his youtube channel
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIrkeqHAN-rH6Qhbd6yELMA/videos
on a 900 USD purchase I think I had to pay $130CND in duties. I have no idea on US duties.
Just a tip. Use a credit card with very good consumer protections or at least paypal when dealing with purchases from China.
Good Luck

I purchased this one.

This is set up in my tent
This was the first bud grown with it.
Alaskan
Currently on my third grow with it. I had originally planned on putting it in a 4x6 or 5x3
tent after my first grow and using my 2x4 tent a Veg tent. In my 2x4 tent I pulled 14 oz on my first grow and 12oz on my second was quite happy with the results
This run I'm using half the power but the light is closer. I also added a rapid LED far red puck

For 870 bucks you could get and build the parts needed for at least 12 better binned chips. Forget that crap. Either build your own or stuck with cmh or hps. Personal opinion at least

I did price out hlg 600h you don’t really save much if you build it yourself.

I didn't have the confidence or the time to build my light at the time. I think I got good value for my $.
I checked ordering from some American companies but shipping and duties are way more than I was willing to pay.
Also all those tools and supplies add up when building a light. If your starting from scratch.
Now I have the time and not rushed. I just built my first light.
Those bridgelux strip builds are quite easy to do.
Also I'm excited Chilled LED is going to be releasing a
