Yes, they work(ed) great. My experience tanking with these sets is Pre-Summerset.
For PUG groups, my shield tank worked fantastic and got lots of praise, literally everyday. This was PUG dungeon groups including DLC and some vet DLC dungeons. Trials are very different.
News flash: many people who make comments-- they only play a specific type of content and they base their opinions on that, without ever considering other people. There is a big difference of what works well in: basic questing/overland content, dungeons, dlc dungeons, trials, vet trials, battlegrounds, open world PvP. Imperial City PvP. dueling.
As well, there is a HUGE difference between playing with a dedicated core group of guldies and friends versus joining dungeon finder for PUGs.
From my PUG dungeon (shield tank) experience, I found: Iceheart + Brands of Imperium + Akavari Dragonguard worked best.
Iceheart proc was frequent and strong (i think 6k-7k roughly)
Brands of Imperium proc was very strong and also healed everyone. the proc rate is just as good as every other set in the game and it lasts a good amount of time.
Dragonguard brings down the cost of ultimate, so in good groups more warhorns and in struggling groups more barrier (shield).
note: i also occasionally used bloodspawn monster helm set/ but the shields were already up almost constantly so it was not necessary.
As a DK I slotted: Igneous shield (DK class skill), [edit-added] Hardened Armor (DK class skill), and bone shield (undaunted skill)
Between all the shields: Imperium, Barrier, Igneous, and Bone Shield. my groups were always well shielded. and they LOVED it. Remember, there are tons of new players in the game, and not everyone has perfected avoiding the red circles,. etc.
If you decide to try it out, I recommend to farm normal, white gold tower for Imperium body pieces, then buy dragonguard weapons and jewelry on guild vendors.
Hope this helps!

Hello, I have a full set of Hatchling's shell CP160 (2 armor and 3 accessory) The armor is gold level and the jewelry is purple. I only get 1890 for the resistances and 4883 for the damage shield instead of 1935 res and 5000 shield. Is the difference because the jewelry is purple? Monster Sets. There are various good Magicka dps Monster Sets available that you can choose from. Now keep in mind, you also have the option to combine two one piece bonuses monster sets instead of a full one.
