AcuRite makes a reasonably good product. It is usually accurate, and easy to set up. However, Past experience with AcuRite has shown me that the inside units are good, but the outside transmitters do no last that long. I have had 4 previous units, and all 4 outside units have gone bad. I am hoping to have better luck with this one.

While it was easy to set up the accuracy is not good. The temperature reading and humidity are not close but the indoor humidity is 18 degrees off. I have closely watched this as the first day I thought we were going to have a thunder storm in the room. It is within 8 feet of another weather station and a very old gauge that was my grandfathers. It seems to be reading high but does change . The outside humidity is closer and within 8 degrees. I tried contacting the acu-rite company and tried to check the help page but after doing the set up several times it is still off. I even tried moving it 8 feet to the other weather station but still reads high.

Have to give a thumbs up to Acurite on this one, for the price, it sure is a stylish easy to read monitor that gives you all that you really need to know on one screen. I'm using it in conjunction with a more advanced weather station of a different brand and the readings are exact. Operates on batteries with the option of plugging it in to the wall but I find that with just batteries alone the display a little too dim even with the light option boosted right up, however once plugged in, it can be bright enough to use as a night light.

For the money, you can't beat this AcuRite Weather Station. It provides more than just the basic weather conditions as well as providing a fairly accurate forecast. The display is sharp and clear and the colors are bright. Three brightness settings are useful but even the lowest setting may be too bright for some if used in the bedroom while sleeping. I did find out though that if you press and hold the brightness button for 10 seconds, that the display will turn off until the next time the brightness button is pressed. This made it possible for me to use this unit on my nightstand. The setup is literally a breeze! All of the automatic settings such as time and date were set within a few minutes. Even the readings from the remote sensor were just as fast. The features of this unit make it even better such as recorded high and low temperatures and humidity readings. There is an AC adapter to provide constant power and there is a battery compartment to provide either back up power or wireless power as well. Without the AC adapter, the display is near dark but you can activate it with the press of a button for momentary viewing. Overall, you cannot go wrong with this unit in my opinion.Read full review
