Was just about to say Roomba too! Next up IMO is Philips Hue, which don't support Matter and cost $25, vs. Matter-enabled Amazon brands that cost $7.
replyHue does support Matter. Hue is expensive but delivers a premium experience, unlike the products talked about in this thread that are expensive but not better than the competition.
replyIKEA is winning here rather than a Chinese brand.
replyGot any you'd recommend? I've been paying the Hue tax because they're the only bulbs I've had with zero connectivity issues ever across several years, whereas every other brand I've tried has been very unreliable.
replyI'm in the same boat. Nothing else is as rock solid or has the color accuracy of Hue. You can immediately tell when it's some random brand
replyHue also peaks at 20 W sources which leave even small room in the dark (for comparison, I have 70 W of LED lighting in the kitchen central light).
replyIdeally for good lighting you do want multiple lower power lights than a single mini sun
