Good for the price, but...
I don't think you can find this size LED panels under 100 dollars for anywhere else. So I should be happy with the price. But I can tell that it is cheaply made, so I'm sure some of the parts of this light like its metal frames, knobs or screws will be easily wobbly or even broken in a short period, so I have to be very careful while using it. The light power should be 9000 lumen (in 3ft?), but I'm not sure if this has that amount of brightness. I do not like the design for attaching the (incandescent orange) filter, which has small magnets on the corner. These magnets are not strong enough to hold the filter on the light. And I posted one photo for you to compare the size to my (standard sized) guitar so that you can see how big it is. Also, it is heavy. Of course, this size LED panels are generally heavy, but I feel that this particular item is heavier than other makers'. Because of its size (17 in x 17 in with the frame) I can't find a case to fit this light. So I'm probably going to get a small sized suits case just for this. I work for a TV station for over 20 years and shoot videos on the side for which I'm used to using heavy equipment, so it is okay with me. But I don't think this is for every video shooter. In fact, since I have just bought this light and haven't used it yet for actual shootings, I've got to say that I am not yet sure now if I really like it or not now. Let me find out more. I've been using a old Smith Victor incandescent light kit, which I've got to say is "junk." I hope this LED light will work much better than that.

Works fine, I would say it's average
The build quality is decent, but not high-end. The light output is decent, but not as bright as you'd likely like. Overall I think it's worth the money if you use it regularly as LED panels are more efficient and last longer than hot lights.

Bright but dimmer stopped working.
Actually I loved this light because it's very bright and sturdy. But one of the dimmer controls stopped working.

The best!
Extremely bright -- quality build. Unless you want to spend well over $1,000, this is as good as LEDs will get! Definitely passes for professional. I got at $239 and would recommend at this price, without any reservations.

Missing V-mount Plate
My unit arrived with the V-mount plate missing. The instructions even showed the position on the rear of the light where it was supposed to be. Nice looking light but had to return it since it required the use of the (supplied) electrical plug.
