The earlier problem sets were absolutely nails. I did a 7B+ on my moonboard back in 06 that I maintain to this day had the hardest moves I've ever done. I honestly think 7C+ was probably nearer the mark.
As time went on the grades began to settle and were more realistic. The more recent problem sets tend to be pretty fairly graded in all honestly. Though they're never ever a pushover at any grade. I think the ethos is 'better to sandbag than to inflate'. Which I think is good personally.
As an earlier poster said, the moonboard will never flatter you. But it will make you incredibly strong.
