The Niwa GrowHub+ was an enormous improvement over not having automated environmental control. That being said, there's room to get better. My system takes a few tries to switch from 'auto' mode to 'manual' or vice versa (which may be because it doesn't play nicely with 5G wifi. Also, the outlets only work for limited options in limited configurations. It would be better, too, if the settings on the app were 'remembered' so i don't have to remove VPD, CO2, and DewPoint from the graph every time I want to see the chart in usable detail. Luckily my needs are basic...so I kinda love it even if this review seems to the contrary. Also, I was ready to pay the $199 list price on the website, but I think it only cost $129 once it was in my cart. So, great value for the price.

Know what your getting before buying, would be the perfect product but three main downsides, must have a 2.4g Chanel on WiFi network and cannot use more than 15A in total for all four outlets I think is pretty stupid considering how much it limits the ability to control many products some bas promotes. Please be aware and also you can’t only use one type of device per grow hub, example you can’t use two fans on one strip. If they manage to fix these issues it would be the most flawless device to use with absolute ease

The Niwa is a really cool tool but the software on iOS is a very buggy experience. It needs some fixes and updates for me to trust it without checking it daily

There have been some huge improvements to the software recently.

Didnt like the interface and found it to feel outdated, seeing as most grow room equipment I have has sensors built in the niwas sensor didnt add much other than another reading, id really only use it to control lighting
