 Good Basic Station September 11, 2009

This weather station is about as elementary as it gets. Its easy to set up, easy to read, and despite what the other reviewer here said about it being inaccurate, I have found it to be profoundly accurate when compared to two other more expensive stations I have. I believe accuracy in any of these stations depends mostly on the position of the sensor. Its harder than one thinks to find a fairly sheltered area that is out of the wind and direct sunlight. Try different places if yours seems consistently inaccurate. As far as this unit as it compares to others, most of these weather stations I have found are all about the price. Spend more money and you get more cool icons and numbers to look at. This unit has an atomic clock, (nice to have one clock in the house that is precisely accurate all the time), date, indoor and outdoor temperature, and a forecast icon which is really nothing more than a monitor of the barometric pressure. If it is heading up the icon will forecast fair weather. If its heading down it will display clouds. Despite this simple gaging technique, it is usually very accurate in most cases. And you also have the option of setting the sensitivity of the forecast icon. That is, to make it react more quickly to minor fluctuations in the barometric pressure, thus seeing the forecast icon change more often. (There was a time when all weather forecasting was pretty much done by just watching the barometer. I suggest keeping the sensitivity set to "medium", for setting it higher had mine changing far too often, and too soon). La Crosse units are one of the oldest and most reliable that there are going. My station has been running flawlessly since I installed it, and after 6 months the batteries in both the station and sensor still test out strong. One other thing, none of these units around this price could be considered overly generous in their screen display dimensions. Some, even ones that are more expensive can be down right cheap. They're so small you have to walk right up to them each time to read it. This units screen is a full 2" wide and 3 1/4 inches long. A decent enough size to see from several feet away. If you're interested in a simple easy to read accurate weather station/forecaster I would highly recommend this one...

This is a great weather station. I chose this one to replace an old one that had stopped working. It has the features that I like, including the icons for the weather forecast, and atomic clock. So far, it is working well!
Excellent product February 1, 2010

Avery nice little product February 1, 2010

There is no weather station near me so this little device is great. If you buy one be sure to locate the remote sensor where it will be shaded all year long and not too close to asphalt or concrete because you could get very erroneous readings, in the summer especially. I don't believe these issues are covered in the instructions. There are a couple of things I'd like to see different, but for the price it's great and it does what it's supposed to do.
However, two mounting holes would be nice so it would stay straight when you hang it.
