Ikea has been releasing some banger electronics at mid-level pricing.
I don’t know the quality, but if it’s similar to IKEAs other stuff, I’m on board. I have furniture from them that’s been going on for 30 years that was supposed to be my “starter furniture”. And with the widespread Chinese knockoff BS that’s all over Amazon, I’m strongly considering it.
IKEA 30 years ago was also making better furniture than they are today though. All their entry-level furniture is absolute shit these days, thin veneer on cardboard strength fiber board and screws made of metal softer than warm butter.
Anything in a quality that will last more than a few years costs almost the same as any other furniture store.
In only have experience with their ZigBee lightbulps, and they suck ass.
Hm, I have several of their smart bulbs and they work great, I did upgrade to the v2 hub though as they were sporadically losing connection, since swapping though they’ve been rock solid.
What’s wrong with the lightbulbs? I have pretty good experience with all their zigbee products. Cheap, reliable, stable, sturdy, works with Home Assistant.
My wife still likes to go, and now we mostly buy the higher end stuff because we like the design and hate the hassle of other furniture retailers with sales people and whatnot.
