Good Value. May 12, 2006 C. Leibbrand (Ooltewah, TN USA) 35 out of 36 found this review helpful
So far I'm very happy with this weather station. The readings compare almost identically to another weather station which costs 4x more. The only difference was the humidity reading; and I think my more expensive unit is wrong (and needs adjusting). I thought this unit was wrong (because it's cheaper) but I followed the directions to test the humidity, and it's working like it should. The barometer and temp matched my other unit perfectly. The barometer can be adjusted too if needed. I don't think the temp gauge can.
Good For The Price February 10, 2007 Tacitus (Llareggub Wales) 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
I purchased this three-piece weather station mainly for the barometer.
The price of the set is less than most single barometers.
The inexpensive cost and the praise of the other two reviews drew me into a purchase.
So far I have not regretted my decision.
The barometer performs well, I have made a daily check of its readings, comparing it with that of the closest weather station. The two readings are in constant near agreement.
I plan to install the item on my sailboat. Barometers act as a warning of weather changes when a forecast might not be available. Strict accuracy here is not as important as the general trend that a series of reading might reveal.
The item is not designed for a marine environment, but I have my hopes that it will continue to perform well.
The item's diminutive size, when compared with similar weather stations, makes it ideally suited to the limited space available on board a sailboat.
The wooden board upon which the instruments are secured seems to be made from some kind of superior softwood, perhaps deal. The finish is akin to oak; I might yet remount it on some hardwood.
The set has now been in use on my sailboat for several months, the instruments are working well.
The item has lived up to my best expectations.
weather station February 16, 2006 E Dickinson 23 out of 26 found this review helpful
I am completely satisfied with the overall performance of my weather station.I find the wood framing attractive and pleasing to look at.The appearance goes well with any surrounding you could wish to hang it in.
Nice weather station March 20, 2007 Florida Lady (Florida, USA) 18 out of 20 found this review helpful
Better quality than I expected for the price. Wood is finished nicely. No rough edges. Instruments are held in place by means of springs, easy to turn (if desired) so you can hang the weather station vertically or horizontally, and stay in place once you move them. You can even remove them and put them in a different order. Clear, easy to read dials. A good product at a reasonable price. We're quite pleased.
Comparable To Expensive Weather Stations November 30, 2008 Noore 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a nice item, especially for the price. It's not cheap looking and the basic style should fit in with almost any decor. I have it inside the house on an 'outside' wall.
I've had the item for a few months (from summer heat and humidity to winter's below freezing temperatures), and I've found it to be accurate. The humidity and temperature reading matches with our other electronic weather gauge, and I've found that the barometric reading consistently matches the "Weather Channel". My one complaint/ suggestion is there are no feet on the backside of this item to keep it slightly away from the wall, so as to allow for better air circulation. This was easily remedied by going to a local Home Depot and purchasing stick-on "feet" for $1 (1/2 " diameter x 1/4" high).
I've been unexpectedily pleased with this product and would recommend it without hesitation.
