Personally I don't think you will find anything better value anywhere. What swings it over anything else at that price is the Deore Hollowtech Chainset, hydraulic brakes and a good fork. Everybody else specs heavy Octalink cranks, hidden by upgraded mechs. That is well specc'd and honest value. 26 inch wheels mean the small will be 14 or 16 inch, all possibly small enough for him.
Acid test of course is whether it fits and whether he likes the look of it!
As for reliability, well, holiday in France and you'll conclude that 50,000 French people can't all be wrong! They are very popular, and rightly so. All the components are mainstream, nothing obscure, and Decathlon are pretty good at customer service usually.
