I have a bias in that I went for the whole IKEA home automation, and it sure has rough edges, but I also was under the impression the other brands were in a similar situation (perhaps Phillips HUE system has a better reputation at this point ? provided their range of devices is more limited)
It’s tough to assume different product line qualities are related for any major brand IMHO.
Would you shun Microsoft keyboards because of the direction they took for Windows 11 ? Do you stay away from iPhones because mac Pros are really not a good deal ? Or trust Sony to make good computers because their headphones are really top notch ?
