What's your go-to brand for Zigbee devices? (self.homeassistant)

Currently I'm using a mix of Hue for lighting and Tradfri for blinds and switches. What are some good brands to expand a smarthome? Are some brands better for a specific category?

My zigbee network is predominantly Hue bulbs and fixtures. Not cheap but reliable and they come in a lot of form factors. I think the only other zigbee device I use is the kwikset convert. I didn't want a keypad on both of my doors so the convert was a cheap and easy solution
