Weather Station January 6, 2009
Constance L. Peterson (South West Minnesota)
The weather station was relatively easy to set up and is very enjoyable as well as informative. However, I would prefer that the humidity that is shown would be an outside humidity. I don't really need to know the inside but the outside would be nicer to know about. Otherwise, for the price, it tells me a lot about the weather.

Great Product! January 6, 2009
Caryn Mcdaniel (Fulton, MO)
I got this for my fiance for christmas. He set it up Christmas day. He said it was very easy to set up and was really happy with it. The temperatures are very accurate and so is the time. Little suggestion, make sure you have this set at your time zone. It took us a while to figure that one out! All in all, he loves it and it works well!!

Super! January 6, 2009
~*~shellylay~*~ (Alexandria, VA USA)
This clock/weather station is perfect when I have to figure out what to wear in the morning as well as getting ready for my run for outside. Gives me an accurate reading outdoors, and the cartoon man "dresses up" for the current weather conditions (e.g., holds an umbrella and wears a rain coat if it's raining, scarf blowing if it's windy etc.). The display is large so I don't need to put on my glasses to read it. I have the sensor on my deck in the back yard, so the range is good. The only thing I did notice is that in order to sync the sensor with the display, it's best to do it next to a large window, such as a sliding glass door or even outside. But once, I had them sync'd, I was able to take the display anywhere in the house and still receive a signal.

Just What I Needed January 1, 2009
~~Hummingbirder~~ (Pataskala, OH)

I get up at 0400 and I live in Ohio, where we enjoy a temperamental climate. I do pay attention to the weather forecast, but "tonight" and "tomorrow morning" are a bit off my schedule. It's difficult to plan what to wear and when I need to start my commute to arrive on time and safely. When I get up, it's really dark outside. I can't hear if it's raining either. To top all that off, I turn on very few lights, and don't turn on the radio or television because my husband is sleeping. I haven't a clue what is going on outside when I get up in the morning.

I didn't need anything fancy, but I needed something to help me plan my morning, and I find this very helpful. Outside temperature, barometer rising/falling indicator, and the little fellow giving me an idea whether I need a jacket or a coat. Or a tank top. I like the moon phase icon too. You need to know if it's a full moon :)

It also measures indoor temperature and humidity. I need to know that for my houseplants and orchid.

You do need 4 AA batteries, and you need to mount the sensor outside. The toughest part of that is finding a place that IS outside but sheltered from the elements.

A five-star product, except the alarm clock feature. Trust me, all you have to do is hold this in your hand, and you know you'll break it if you use it as an alarm clock!
