 Adequate, but not great October 28, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The thermometer seems to perform as it is supposed to and although I haven't tested the extreme range of the remote sensors, they perform adequately, the outside sensor is located approximately fifty feet from the base unit and through two walls.
My main complaint is that when it arrived there was a loose part inside. I installed batteries and it worked, but the part rattling inside was annoying. Being single and working long hours made it inconvenient to return. After about a month the unit would not receive the remote signals. I opened it up and found that the antenna for receiving the atomic clock signal had come unglued and was hanging by the leads. In my opinion it was poor construction and poor engineering to use only a dob of glue to hold a rod antenna in place. Other than that accuracy and ease of use seem reasonable.
 I wish it had better packaging... October 19, 2008

I strictly purchased this as a gift, so this review is from the gift giver's point of view and is for buyers who might be considering this as a gift. I have no idea if it works. But, I was hoping, for the price, it would have been packaged better. It looks like I spent $5 in the clearance aisle at a home store. Hopefully, it works better than it looks in the packaging.

I bought this item from Fry's about 6 months ago.... it already doesn't work. Of course, it never really did in the first place, except at night. If there was any sun outside, it would say the temperature was well over 100 degrees... And before you say it, no, it was not in direct sunlight. The outdoor sensor was placed in the shade and apparently caught a reflection from somewhere.
This is all irrelevant anyway, because after about 4 months, it stopped receiving data from the outside sensor and instead just displayed --- even with new batteries
No readout on remote. July 24, 2008
2 out of 5 found this review helpful
This looked like a good product but I returned it unopened. The remote temperature sensor did not have a readout. I use the remote on a patio table so I like to know the temp. when I am there, as well in the house. I don't think the description said anything about the remote having a readout or not. My current unit, which is failing after 5 years (different brand) does have the remote readout. So I'll give it 3/5 since I looked good but I did not use it.

Have had this item for two weeks, and it works great. Easy to set up and install. Actually has been giving a rather accurate forecast, and the temperature appears to be right on.
