“This is a well made, nice looking device that does exactly what it claims. I’ve set the one I purchased up at my parents’ house and am very satisfied.”
“Perfect to start up with. The characteristics stick to my needs and the project run well for most integrations. I’m still waiting for a better KNX integration.”
“Seems very good so far. Much more substantial case and heatsink than the standard pi 4 I had been using previously, I feel much more confident placing this in the cupboard along with the router, switches and other bits of infrastructure as a long term solution.”
“I plugged it in and works straight out of the box.
I like the quality fanless heat sink design on the base, this gives me the confidence to leave it on 24/7 which is needed for a home assistant to work!!..
packaging was simple and well designed.”
“I had been running home assistant for a while in a docker container on my laptop, while that worked it was a pain as I needed to keep my laptop running 24/7. When looking for alternative approaches I had considered a raspberry pi, however when browsing I spotted the home assistant green. I decided to go for it and it has been a great experience. I've been able to integrate all of my homes smart devices into it.
I did need to purchase a separate zigbee dongle for it which was a shame, I would have been happy to pay a little more for one that included it.
Other than that it was dead easy to set up, literally just power and ethernet and away it goes. I've had it running for a week now and haven't had a single issue with it. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone getting started with home assistant.”
