I've got one. It's excellent value and packs away very neatly indeed for storage or transport. The camera stand is ok, if a little bit lightweight, but ok for compact cameras. The lights are halogen, so be careful where you place them relative to the light tent and how you handle them once you're done. However, you can buy replacement bulbs (LED etc) that do the job and don't get anywhere near as hot.

I thought my lights were going to catch fire as they started to smoke after about half a minute. I replaced them with fluorescents but now not getting anywhere near enough light.

I don't use the supplied lights anyway. I prefer to use a single standard fitting (BC 22) daylight bulb placed above the tent.
