Love my Kasa products. API is actively maintained and works super well. Products themselves work great. Their colored bulbs can emit a ton of colors and support scenes. Not as bright as I'd like, though.

You don't need the app if you're using Home Assistant, py-Kasa or something like that since the devices create their own WiFi network on first boot and you can program them from there.

I run 30+ Wi-Fi bulbs on an eero mesh. These devices are noisy but they are responsive (slower than zigbee). Only disadvantage is that they live or die by DHCP. If they can't renew their lease, it can take a while for them to come back online.

The one thing I really wish they could do colorwise is the classic "submarine dark red so it doesn't ruin your night vision" thing. The red really doesn't get deeper past a fairly modest point, it just gets dimmer.
