The ... grocery store?
Lidl, a grocery store, even has a tool brand called parkside. It even rivals other brands in quality nowadays.
Lidl's smarthome kit - specifically their lightbulbs - comes around once in a blue moon but is very good quality. Not up to the standard of Phillips, but on a par with IKEA.
