Another vote for the Sonoff zigbee stick shared earlier. Be aware that there's two versions (different chips) and I believe the most stable one is the Texas Instruments one so this is what you probably want to get.
I really like my Ikea bulbs and Home Assistant can deal with them in full. Nice things about the bulbs is that they are routers in their mesh network, so as long as I have a bulb close I am able to add zigbee devices.
All my zigbee devices are either Aqara or Ikea and all have been rock solid, the only one that gave me a bit of trouble was an Aqara TVOC Air Quaility sensor which stopped sending data once since I configured it, I updated the firmware and have had no trouble since.
