By Maven from Red bank, NJ on 11/27/2007 Describe Yourself: Professional Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: quite inaccurate
Bad packaging but good product By Gladys from North Carolina on 11/25/2007 Describe Yourself: Professional, Tech Savvy Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This looks very nice outside the box, but the box itself makes it look sort of cheap. It works fine, and if I'd bought it for myself, I'd be completely happy. Since it was a gift, though, I was a little embarrassed by how cheaply it was packaged. Can't complain much at this price, though!
I bought one and then came back for more By Lynn gadget bargain hunter from Towson, MD on 11/12/2007 Pros: Backlight wslight push, Comes with battery, Date always accurate, Dual alarms loud enough, Easy to use, Overnight automatic setup, Time always accurate Best Uses: Bathroom vanity, Bedroom, Kitchen, Travel Describe Yourself: Bargain Hunter Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Ends wondering which clocks have the correct time. Can't quite see my tiny watch day and date any longer - nice to be reminded of the day and date in the morning. It was super seeing that it eventually adjusted itself for daylight savings time. Makes a great little inexpensive gift.

By Philip in Kodiak from Alaska on 10/12/2007 Pros: Attractive Design, Durable, Easy To Assemble Describe Yourself: Bargain Hunter, Practical Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: We have a Davis weather station at our field office with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, and seeing wind speed and direction, temperature, etc at at glance is nice when your life revolves around the weather. I wanted something similar at home, but was not ready to pay upwards of $250 for a Davis, so I took a chance on the La Crosse after some homework online. I was a bit disappointed about the propeller style anemometer at first instead of the cupped paddle style, but it has proven itself to be effective even during snow squalls when I thought the blades would get gummed up. My house is in a somewhat protected spot and the wind tends to swirl, so the wind direction unit gets spun around a bit, but it seems to average the direction over time so still gives accurate readings. I have had the unit up for about a year now and have yet to have to change the batteries (the main readout is plugged into the wall). The barometer seems accurate and it does a pretty good job on guessing at the trend (sunny, changing, rain), the temps seem ballpark correct, and overall it has provided accurate and reliable performance for a relatively inexpensive unit. You will need to rig up some sort of pole to mount the anemometer on, and then run some wires (it is only partially "wireless"- the anemometer is connected to the temp gauge/transmitter via a phone line cable), but otherwise installation is easy. The transmit range between the temp gauge/transmitter and the base station is not that large when going through walls however. I only get about 30' worth. I have not used the rain gauge.I am back here on [...] to buy one for my father. So far, I can heartily recommend this unit.
By nature lover from los angeles on 10/03/2007 Pros: Attractive Design, Durable, Easy to hang on wall, Lightweight Best Uses: Babys' room, Bathroom, Bed Room Describe Yourself: Bargain Hunter, Like to be comfortable, Practical Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought two of these and really like them. I wanted to know how/when to adjust the temperature and humidity (put the humidifier on or not) in my twins room. This is perfect! I placed one in the bathroom and one in the nursery. The numbers are easy to see (even in dim light) and the meter is so lightweight, it can be hung on the wall with just a small nail. Very pleased with this purchase.
