    Can anyone recommend something similar that is more open? I like the idea but I don’t want to get tied into a new ecosystem and all for every dang thing I buy.

      Which bit of it are you particularly interested in? The app connectivity? Basic dumb all in ones are available on Amazon are more than good enough for growing the simple stuff like peppers and lettuce. None of the all in ones are bullet proof in terms of reliability, they are pretty disposable and I would not count on them lasting years.
