Fun product, my kids love it! December 19, 2006

We purchased this item for our kids. The weather in Northern CO is often surprising, and I would always provide them with a "what to wear" recommendation when I wake them up in the mornings. I've installed this in their bathroom and NOW, while brushing their teeth they consult with the "weather boy" for how to dress for the day. I've also printed out a larger copy of the "outfits" that "weather boy" wears so that they can look on the back of the door to de-code the iconic clothing and symbols.
It's fun and our 6 year old tells us; "weather-boy hasn't lied to me yet!"
I'd rate it a 5 star if it were larger...
 I love the little guy July 12, 2007

First off, this thing works. Second, I am kind of sorry I didn't find money to buy even more options. But for the price I am thoroughly delighted with a working outdoor sensor giving me current temperature and an inside thermometer/humidity reading. The little man icon is kind of icing on the cake. Calendar and sunrise are nice. It's a compact worthy desktop addition. My first go-round with setting it up was clumsy. Then when I had fresh new batteries in hand I decided to change to fresh (supposedly will last a year) and reset the station. The second go-round went much smoother and I suspect any problems I had with originally setting up the station were my own problems, not the unit. My recommendation is to buy this one if you want an economical weather station that works. But if you can afford more options, go for one that provides temps, humidity and perhaps a heat/chill index for outside. I'm saving up and looking for such a unit now.

This is an amazing, inexpensive little weather station. The little boy weather predicter is almost always correct in giving the direction of the weather with a clever graphic........that's the fun part. The only criticism would be the difficulty in reading the graphics at an angle. You do need to look at it head on. The good part of that is the signal from the receiver is strong enough to give you a lot of flexibiliity of where to place the readout.
This is a really helpful product for a very busy life September 30, 2007

I purchased this particular weather station to replace a different type/brand of weather station that had stopped working. It has so many more useful features than my last one and it makes life so much easier for us. No more scrambling to find the weather on the radio and/or TV. My family enjoys checking every morning to see what "the weather guy" is wearing and what weather is predicted to determine how we should dress for the day. It is also a great educational tool for my young children.
