I had them. Overall they were "ok".
Major gripes:
Everything was LED, EXCEPT the turn signals and reverse lights. WHY couldn't they just make them full LED?
No cover for the back to cover up the jungle of wires
And my biggest gripe of all: delayed brake light response. When you stepped on the brakes, the third brake light up top would light up a split second before the tail lights would, completely defeating the purpose of LED lighting.

The actual light output was great though, I can't complain about brightness. As far as brightness goes, it looked OE. Some aftermarket LED lights are way too bright when the brake lights aren't on and when the brakes get applied the brightness doesn't increase much. These didn't have that problem; they were normal when off the brakes and the brake light portions were super bright when activated.
I chose to get rid of them in favor of OE clears with LED bulbs in the places that matter. It looks 100% OE this way (doesn't look aftermarket), yet the brake lights, turn signals, and reverse lights are LEDs. I prefer this setup because IMO it looks better.
