We live in the far Northern part of the midwest, and with all the terrible weather going on around the country, it seemed like I was always looking for my phone to check the weather conditions. I decided to look for a weather station for the house that would display the current temp outside along with humidity. I was looking for something easy to set up that would sit on a countertop and give us the weather stats whenever we wanted them.
I liked this unit because:
- It has a big display which makes it easy to read from a distance.
- You can add batteries (not supplied) for backup and it plugs into a normal AC outlet for normal operation
- Very easy to set up. I took it out of the box, read the directions (which seemed easy to understand), plugged it in, and it began searching for one of its programmed sources of weather information. Bingo! Found a source and started displaying the weather conditions for my location.
- It also displays the current time and date which I did not have to set up.
- I like the display which shows both outside weather conditions and inside temp/humidity. It is colorful and looks great sitting on our countertop.
My only other comment involves the wireless sensor that you place somewhere outside your house. It also has a display that shows the outside temp and humidity. Not sure why you need a display on the outside sensor, since it will probably be located someplace that might not be readily accessible. I have mine in a shady spot off the front porch under an eve so that I can't just go outside and look at the display which is small enough that you have to be fairly close to read it. So, I guess it is a nice to have but not necessary depending on where you install the sensor.
After using this for a week, I have no complaints. It works great, agrees pretty closely with our local TV weather, and was reasonable in cost.
Update: I have to change my rating slightly. I have had this weather station for a while now and it is still a nice device. But I live in far North of Illinois, so Winter gets pretty cold up here. We have had a nice warm streak but recently the temperature has gotten down into the low 20's and high teens and the cold has caused an issue with the remote sensor. At around 20 degrees outside, the inside base station lost the remote signal and was just displaying - - for the outside temp and humidity. I thought maybe the battery on the remote unit was low, so I put a new battery in it. But still the base could not find the remote sensor and just displayed the - - where the readings were supposed to be. I tried resetting the base by taking out it's backup battery and unplugging it. Then putting the batteries back and plugging it in. No dice. So, I brought the remote sensor into the house and set it next to the base station and waited. After about 10 minutes, the remote warmed up and the base unit picked up the remote's signal and started working again. I tried putting the remote back outside in the cold and the same thing happened. After about a half hour outside, the remote's signal quit and the inside base station was again displaying - - for the temp and humidity. So, this time, I brought it back in, waited for the signal to return from the remote, and put the remote out in the garage where it stays warmer - no lower than 30 degrees. And the base and remote have worked fine since. When it warms up outside, I will put the sensor back out. But fair warning - It appears that this unit is sensitive to cold temps and, at least my remote, quit working when the temp gets around 20 degrees and below. So, if you live further South where the temps don't get so cold, this unit should work fine for you.
This product has amazing distance when the remote is working. I have a brick house and the base unit is on the East side of the house next to the far wall. The garage is on the west side of the house and the remote signal has to travel through a brick wall, go outside, and travel through another brick wall to get to the base. And since I put the remote in the warmer garage for now, it works fine. I like the quality of the unit - feels like it is worth the money. And the display is colorful and you can set how bright you want it to be. If it wasn't for the cold weather issue, it would definitely still be a 5-star review.
Update on 12/13/24: I contacted the seller regarding my issue with the remote not working in very cold temperatures and the seller got right back to me. They are very easy to work with and solved my issue by sending me a new remote at no cost. I also didn't have to return the old remote that had issues in cold temps. The new remote works great in our very cold weather right now! I am including a photo showing that the remote is working fine sitting outside in 9 degree (F) weather. Earlier this morning, it was only 1 degree (F) showing on the base and it was up to 9 degrees when I took the picture. The seller was very gracious and I got the replacement remote in just a few days. It works great and I am a happy buyer and would definitely recommend buying any product that the seller has on the Amazon store.

The device does feel a little flimsy and thin though. I don’t plan on throwing it around to test the durability. Overall it seems to work well and seems to be very accurate. The outdoor temperature is usually almost the same as my weather apps say. Over all I think it’s worth it for the price

At that point, the station is already calibrating itself and figuring out the inside and outside temperatures and humidity levels. It is also searching for the radio signal to set the clock. This all might take some time so if things aren't perfectly accurate right away be patient. It will all adjust itself. I did set the clock without waiting for the radio signal and the next morning I noticed that it was off by one hour. The radio signal had kicked in and reset the time and I had failed to set the device for the correct time zone. I fixed that and now the clock is right on.
The inside and outside temps and humidity levels seem to be very accurate, at least for general use, within a degree or so. The weather forecast section is based on the barometric pressure trend, whether it is going up or down, and obviously won't be as accurate as an actual weather forecast but it's interesting and fun to watch the forecast, and it will give you a general idea of what to expect weather-wise.
The station can be used standing on a table or on a shelf or hanging on a wall. I opted to put it on the wall in our living room where I can see it from my easy chair. The first photo was taken sitting in my chair which is about 10 feet away from the station. The second is also from the chair but standing up. I did this to demonstrate that the station can easily be read from that distance and can also be seen from different angles. I can read it from most places in the room but granted, it is a small room. But the screen is bright, the icons large, and it can be read easily from various distances and angles.
The screen is colorful, looks very cool, and is quite eye-catching. People notice it where I have it placed and comment on how cool it looks.
The instruction manual is very complete. So complete that at first it looks intimidating. It's not. It includes information about things that the station takes care of all by itself. Read it slowly, take your time. It's a lot easier than it looks.
The station provides a lot of information. Indoor and outdoor temperatures. Indoor and outdoor humidity levels. (There's even a smiley/frowny face in the indoor humidity section that shows the comfort level in your home.) It shows the barometric pressure, the trend, up or down, of that pressure, and predicts the weather accordingly using animated graphics. There's a colorful icon that shows the phases of the moon. There's an icon that shows when it's time to change the batteries in the remote sensor. There's a "Histogram" that shows the recent history, up or down, of the barometric pressure. The backlight brightness is adjustable. There are settings that will alert you to extreme outdoor temperatures and frost warnings.. You can even set a wake-up alarm with a snooze button. So the station has a lot of features, some of which, such as the alarm and temperature warnings, I probably will never use, but it's nice that they're there.
So I really like this weather station. It does a lot of cool things, does them well, and looks great on the wall. I do recommend it.
