we have 5 kids, without them, after tax and all, we would have had to find a way to save for college.  One has finished, the 529 benefit that I like best is you can roll money downhill to other children.  Others can deposit money in too, we had substantial gifts put in long time ago that greatly helped.  I would recommend it, but like anything, how they are managed for returns matters.
