 weather station January 28, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I purchased this product for my parents and they just love it. They like knowing what the indoor and outdoor temperature are and the Oscar Outlook figure is somewhat entertaining. All the additional information the weather station provides is nice to have, too. I think it was a great value for the money and would recommend it to anyone interested in purchasing a weather station. I may be buying another one in the near future because now my parents are saying that they would like to have an additional one to put it in the bedroom (the one they already have is in the living room).
Good value for the money October 10, 2007

I have been using this product for almost a year. It works per the 'Product Description'. I installed the transmitter about 30 feet away from my house under the tree, so the direct sun would not hit it. Sometimes the outdoor readings on the weather station does turn blank, possibly due to too many walls interfering with the reception, if we move it.
While we don't rely on the forecasting tool, this product provides us with the time, indoor & outdoor temperatures, relative humidity, the moon phases and an alarm. I wish it also had outdoor humidity, but I guess there are more expensive models that one can buy that would provide that.
The one concern that I have is that the weather station has so many buttons on every side (top, left and right) that one has to be really careful picking it up, or else the alarm is activated, without you realizing it. Then you will wake up to an alarm in the middle of the night. Otherwise this product works great!
 Just doesnt work, poor customer support. March 12, 2007

The receiver/clock works fine. Unfortunately, the temperature senser/transmitter does not. Despite doing the time consuming reset/restart routine (waiting 4 minutes after removing the batteries from both units and then pushing all the buttons at least ten times) several times, the two units never communicated. A TOLL call to customers support resulted in several voice mailboxes and then after ten minutes (good thing I don't pay long distance phone charges) you had to leave a voicemail and then it hung up.
Several calls later, a real tech support specialist told me that I need to buy batteries with an expiration date of at least 2015!
OK, you've made enough of a fool of me can I return it for replacement or repair? - Sure at my cost.
NOT!

I got this weather station for my kitchen as I had bought 2 similiar ones for Christmas presents and I liked them. Aside from the indoor/outdoor temps it also tells indoor humidity, date, time, what time the sun rises and what quarter the moon is in! I love the little boy who either dresses warmer or with less clothing as the temperature goes up or down. If it's going to snow, he has snowflakes around him and if it's sunny he has the sun over his shoulder---so you get the weather in a 'picture' as well. It's a lot of information in a small space. Love it.
