Outdoor Decor Reviews

Mine didnt even come with the rain guage. It didnt come with the cork pads. Thank goodness for the other reviews that amazon has supplied. They will at least give me the chance to locate a replacement.

It looks great, so that's the basis of the five stars. Well, that and the fact that the glass tube arrived unbroken. Whew!
Now all I need is some rain. I'd like to make a trade with someone in north-central California: Send us some of your rain and I'll send you some San Antonio sunshine!

Hi all,

I don't own this particular rain gauge but one similar, and like many others have a broken glass. I found two good places for replacement glass:

www.accumall.com - look under "Rain Gauges" - has them for $3.75 with free standard shipping
www.plowandhearth.com - product #9128 - has them for $1.95 with shipping $3.99 (unless you also order more stuff, shipping charge varies with order)

I hope this helps!

I bought this station about 6 months ago. It was very easy to set up, and has been working perfectly ever since. Having one reliable atomic clock in the house is useful, as all appliances drift somewhat, and so do mechanical watches. The wireless remote temperature sensor has also been working reliably. I just placed in under a bench on the deck, and it has survived so far (in the wet Seattle climate).
Also, the station has a memory for highest/lowest temperatures (one for the station, one for the remote sensor), which is nice when you want to know exactly how hot/cold it got last night.
I haven't been using the weather forecast much, so I won't comment on it.
I still haven't had to change the batteries (almost 6 months of use by now).
Altogether, I'm very happy with the purchase (less than $35), and would recommend this unit to anyone looking for an inexpensive atomic clock/temperature sensor combo.

I would recommend this for any price-conscience buyer who needs an outdoor themometer and an accurate indoor temp measurement.

The wireless capability allows me to place the indoor unit away from heat sources (i.e. chimney, kitchen, etc) to ensure an accurate reading indoors, as well as wireless distance flexability for outdoor sensor placement.

The only function emitted from this particular model is a meter for the level of humidity outdoors. It actually does have an indoor reading, but for whatever reason (probably cost) it is lacking the outdoor measurement.

Lastly, the unit has been very accurate predicting the upcoming weather, even here in Maine where the weather changes practically hourly! Overall, for the price point and accuracy, this is a 5 star unit in my opinion.
