Spent $150 on a 'smart' plant that just dies and texts you about it

Got this thing called a Grobo, supposed to grow herbs automatically. It just sent me a notification saying 'Your basil is sad' and then the whole unit shut down. Has anyone actually had one of these work for more than a month?

Mine worked after a hard reset.

Ah, the classic "hard reset" fix. It's amazing how often the solution to modern tech problems is just turning it off and on again like a stubborn lawnmower. Feels like we're all just paying for fancy boxes that occasionally need a good electronic nap. At this point, I half expect my router to start asking for a bedtime story.

What did the Grobo support team say when you contacted them about the shutdown?
