We love this light and so do our Tomato plants. They have doubled in size since we added the light. Lots of tomatoes growing also.

I have it on the top of my aquarium. It lights up the plants that are growing out of the top! It can be adjusted to match what ever you need. At full power it is very bright. I have it on full for the plants but then have to shade it from the rest of the room.

This is a pretty decent light holder considering the price. It's lightweight, but the all metal construction provides for good stability. It comes fully assembled, and can be easily folded up for storage when it's not needed.

There are two shortcomings. The base of the legs has a hard, smooth plastic insert for a foot. It doesn't provide any grip so, if the frame gets nudged, the whole thing can move. I applied some non-slip material at the base of each leg which significantly helped improve stability.

The second shortcoming is the rope lock. The rope itself is fine for holding a 48 inch dual bulb fixture, but the lock is a cheap plastic fitting that doesn't grip well. I use it in combo with a clamp to ensure that the fixture doesn't move when the plastic lock fails to grip (which is a common occurrence).

Even with the shortcomings it's a decent stand considering the price, and the ability to fold it up for storage without needing any tools or disassembly is a major plus. Four stars.

The light itself is good, but the connection to the base did not fit. I will need to drill a better hole for the screw to go through the base.
