There is a short and very positive appraisal of Linux Lite at Techradar, it is mentioned as one of 10 in the article "10 of the best lightweight Linux distros".
After I've replaced a defect hd, I now have also installed Linux Lite. I've learned SuSE in 2000, 2001, but have not used it, because it won't accept a PC, which was accepted by Windows 95. In the last years I've passed a linux certificate from Webmasters Europe and tried or used for a longer time several distros: Debian, Linux Mint, LXLE, Parsix and other. Now I'm very happy with Linux Lite. It seems to be absolutely smooth and trouble-free. Cool stuff.

Try it on modern hardware and you'll be amazed at just how quick it runs. Given that it's just as happy running from USB media as it is installed on a hard drive – and, indeed, more than happy to run in a multi-boot configuration – it's a free burst of speed that's worth checking out.
