Kayla does not seem to care about the customers or is still very inexperienced.Further assistance is needed, please do me a favor and escalate this issue to technical support and try to do your job and read the messaging above. I started working with Celina having this escalated, I need an explanation as to why the box changed the lighting schedule from 18/6 to 12/12. You have been working there for some time now and seem to not care about your customers or are inexperienced. I would like to communicate with a supervisor please. I have been using this box for a couple of years now and this is a first. I have always used the auto mode for auto flowers and the lighting has always been 18/6. Now I just noticed that is switched to a 12/12 lighting schedule and changing from the vegetation stage at 18/6 to the flowering stage at a 12/12 lighting stage. Please have technical support let me know if the programing has been updated or is there something going wrong with the box.

Staff needs to change or be trained; support leads to frustration

The HeyAbby OG Pro comes with a built in UVB & IR diodes. I switched to Pro mode on the app so I can change the main light scheduler. I discovered there is no UVB or IR light scheduler.

I asked for them to have the app updated as in auto mode these are set to a hidden schedule. It took about 3x of misdirection from the HeyAbby support staff before they decided they will not add this feature which should have been included from the start and ended the conversation by saying they can't meet this demand.

Celina was trying her best to help me and my situation over the weekend. Then Monday came and I'm back with Kayla who has made it known that they won't do anything for me. Seems like they are mad at me for the negative reviews. I'd be glad to change the reviews for each if they resolve my problems appropriately.

(cameras malfunction by having a visible light during dark cycles and I was sent subpar nutrients, both of which they failed to replace or provide a solution for)

If you're reading this HeyAbby staff, you can still make it right and get the reviews changed. Until then, any problems I have will be voiced here, every time.

Hi Giovanni, We’ve carefully reviewed your full case history, including all email threads and your recent requests. We want to take a moment to respond respectfully, clearly, and firmly.

First, we want to emphasize that threatening negative reviews or offering to change them in exchange for special accommodations is not the right approach. Our team is here to support every grower equally, and we truly value honest, constructive feedback—whether it’s positive or critical. That’s how we improve.

Regarding your request to adjust the UVB/IR light schedule in Pro Mode, all suggestions for product or app enhancements are submitted to our hardware and app engineering teams for technical and strategic evaluation. These requests are not decided by individual support agents. Every request must be reviewed to determine if it’s reasonable, feasible, and beneficial for the broader community, and prioritized accordingly. At this time, we are not making custom changes to accommodate individual preferences.

As for your other concerns, our team has provided full explanations regarding the BudCam LED behavior and nutrient batch. We’ve investigated thoroughly and, based on internal reviews, found no defects or quality issues that would justify a replacement under warranty.

Our support team always aims to help, but when a request falls outside of what’s technically possible or policy-supported, we have to be clear and honest.

We remain committed to supporting you as a grower, and we hope to continue the conversation in a respectful and constructive way.

As always, great information and guidance from the Celine and the team! My plant just would not produce any flower, even with all the world class advice.

⚠️ Beware of their bait and switch sales tactics!!!

I was fully prepared to buy what was clearly advertised on HeyAbby’s website as the “420 Pro Edition”, offered during their Father’s Day promo for $420. The product listing showed images, labels, and a name that all pointed to the upgraded “Pro” model — a strong value at that price point.

Before checking out, I sent a quick message to confirm specs. While waiting for a response, I noticed something strange: the product page changed. The “Pro Edition” label disappeared, the product image was swapped out, and all references to the Pro model were removed — but the $420 promotional price stayed the same. When I followed up, support told me the listing had been “updated,” that the Pro was no longer available, and that I should watch for future announcements if I was still interested.

This is a textbook bait-and-switch scenario:
• A more advanced product was clearly listed and promoted at a sale price.
• That product was quietly swapped out mid-promo, with no warning or clarity.
• Customers are left confused, and possibly purchasing a lower-tier product under false pretenses.

I ultimately didn’t complete the purchase — and honestly, I’m glad I caught it in time. It also made me question how the company operates overall. If a brand is willing to shift product claims without notice, it raises reasonable concerns:
• Will they be transparent about subscriptions, accessory costs, or auto-refills?
• Are consumables (like pods, nutrients, filters) being priced fairly, or will buyers get locked into high-margin refills?
• Is there fine print being buried elsewhere?

These are the kinds of concerns buyers deserve to know upfront. The way a company behaves before you purchase is usually a preview of how they’ll treat you after.

🚫 Proceed with caution. Document everything. Transparency and honesty matter — especially when selling high-priced home grow equipment that relies on long-term customer commitment.

Responding to the HeyAbby reply.... For those out there who would like to verify this you can go to IMGUR and check out the screenshots under the images listed as YFavoZH (unfortunately I am unable to post the picture directly) but it is very clear.

Their response is also a total contradiction which only further supports my position... @HeyAbby so you claim that this price was never listed but are also blaming it on my browser cache. HOW COULD IT BE A BROWSER CACHE ISSUE IF YOU NEVER LISTED THIS PRICE?!?!?!?

Hi Robert,

We take claims like this seriously, especially when they could mislead others in the community. After a thorough review of your case, we’d like to clarify that the information you shared is incorrect:

The Hey abby 420 Pro Edition has been consistently priced at $799 since its release.

While we did offer early bird coupons a long time ago for a very limited quantity, there have been no recent discounts or promotions on the Pro Edition due to limited supply and high demand.

We also confirmed with Shopify support that all product pages and pricing data are up to date.

If you experienced a discrepancy while viewing the site, it was not a listing change or bait-and-switch, but likely a result of browser cache or cookie issues. We recommend clearing your browser cache and cookies and reloading the site to avoid any outdated or locally stored data.

Importantly, we have not received any other reports of the issue you described. And given that the Pro Edition was never listed at $420 in any region, we must conclude that the claim about a $420 Pro listing is false.

We welcome genuine questions and feedback and are always transparent about our products, pricing, and subscriptions. However, misrepresenting facts undermines trust and spreads misinformation to potential customers who rely on honest reviews.

If you have further concerns or screenshots you’d like to share to clarify your experience, we’re happy to review them. Otherwise, we ask that reviews be based on accurate, verifiable information.

Outstanding Customer Service

Outstanding Customer Service – Even Without a current Subscription!

I had an issue with my Hey abby unit and was blown away by how fast and professionally their team responded. They resolved the problem in less than 24 hours and stayed in communication the entire time — all without an active subscription! That level of support is rare these days. The product itself is already amazing, but the service made me even more confident in my choice. Huge thanks to the Hey abby team — top-tier experience from start to finish!

Dislike: I accidentally started the flush mode to early. No way to take it back. I just have to ignore Abby instructions and it keeps telling me to FLUSH but plant needs another week of Autoflower/Veg before flushing
