4 years ago, Yes. Not now

If this was 4 years ago, then 15-85mm would sound as a good option.

However, now with the sigma 18-35mm f1.8, the reduced price of Canon's 17-55mm f2.8 IS USM, sigma's 17-50mm f2.8 OS are much better alternatives.

If you are getting 20-25% discount on the current market price of the 15-85mm, then you can go for it. (Its a sub $400 lens)
