I realized I have some old hue bulbs laying around, and they're working well enough with my Zigbee controller (no bridge), but if I decide to scale up I definitely don't want to pay the Hue premium.

Anyone have a Zigbee bulb brand they recommend? I hear Third Reality is nice?

The positive for Sengled is the option of some sizes that I've not found in other brands.

My recommendation is based on use case. Not every device needs to be a router, and OP might be perfectly fine with this.

It is good to know, but I'd not call them the worst since they still are inexpensive and function in all other ways well for my needs.
