This is the second PWS (Personal Weather Station) I have owned. Both were lower priced units (i.e. not made by Davis Instruments) and if you are Ok with the lower build quality than a Davis Vantage Pro 2 station offers, then this one is just fine. It connects to Weather Underground as well as the Acurite in-house system with just a little bit of messing around. It's not 100% plug and play, but with a little bit of effort, it works. For the price I paid, its excellent, but just remember its not a "professional" high end unit and is not priced like one either. It's much better than a poke with a sharp stick, but just remember, THE professionals weather hardware (the Davis set up) is over $500 for the basic unit and up to $1100 with all the extras. This gear works and while I don't expect it to work forever, for the price I paid... it's great.Read full review

THE ITEM IS LISTED AS BRAND NEW, HOWEVER IT IS NOT BRAND NEW. THE COMPANY THAT MANUFACTURES THE WEATHER STATION ACURITE ALSO HAS SOFTWARE FOR THE UNIT THAT ALLOWS YOU TO LINK IT TO A P.C. HOWEVER EVEN THOUGH THE SOFTWARE STATES IT WILL WORK WITH WINDOWS 10, I HAVE A P.C. WITH WINDOWS 10 PRO AND THE SOFTWARE WILL NOT WORK. THEREFORE I HAVE NO WAY TO LINK THE WEATHER STATION TO MY P.C. AND TO THE INTERNET. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS UNIT IF YOU PLAN TO LINK IT TO THE INTERNET... ( DOES NOT WORK WITH WINDOWS 10 PRO )....

This isn't my first AcuRite product. I have been using them for years now and had great service. The reason for ordering this product was to have a spare 5-in-one sensor for when my current one dies. I was interested in the new display which offers "extended range" for reception of the sensor. The nice thing about the 5 in one sensor is that you can receive the information it is transmitting with multiple displays placed in different areas of the house. Simply set the receiver to the proper channel (a-b-or c) depending on which one your sensor is transmitting. If you are friendly with your neighbors, chances are that if they purchase a display, they can receive the information from your sensor if it is within range. My sensor is on a pole about 20 feet in the air near the property boundary with my neighbor to the north. I am currently using 3 different displays in different areas of my house and that works well for me. It has proven to be a good product, moderately priced and I do recommend it.Read full review

All one piece, no assembly. Compact and yet has all the features I looked for. Especially barometer and wind and rain monitoring. Also has additional features. One feature I like is the "weather ticker". Like a real weather station, It tells me the peak wind and the rate of rain currently falling. Many other features also. I recommend this because mainly, it is one piece. Nothing to come loose over time or get snagged. It has been working great.

I've used a couple of different weather stations for my Dad over the years, and when his broke recently he decided on this unit. After installing his, I like it so much I got my own (and I only live 3 doors down). Installation is really a snap, no fiddling with settings and multiple units, just batteries and go. And love the different color display sections and the ability to customize certain aspects of the readings to fit what you'd like to see.
