This weather station is easy to install and gives an accurate measurement of conditions outside the house. It doesn't have wind measurement but that's to be expected at this price point. Recommended.

I really like the display, it's huge and clear and easy to read at a glance. The backlight turns itself off after a few seconds by default to extend battery life, but it can be turned on with a touch at any time. The only reason it didn't get five stars was that I found some discrepancies in the displayed values, so I wasn't entirely sure how precise its measurements really are, though it seems to be accurate enough overall.

This weather monitor comes with the main display, an external temperature and humidity sensor, and a USB-C power cable. The main unit works on battery power (3 AAA batteries not included) or via a USB connection. The remote control sensor requires 2 AAA batteries (also not included). When I first turned the unit on with batteries I had some issues with the time setting and it wouldn't switch from 12 to 24 hours. The remote control sensor was originally connected but not updated. I took the batteries out and put them back in, which basically reset the device. After I did that, everything seemed to be working normally. The device displays both indoor and outdoor temperatures and humidity. It's a pretty device and you can see what the current temperature and humidity conditions are at a glance. It also shows the current state of the moon, which my wife likes a lot. Overall a pretty nice weather forecast.

Had a little trouble with assembly. Until it gets a satellite signal, there's nothing you can do. Once that's established, it's pretty easy.

I have been looking at weather stations for a while and this one does the job pretty well really, It runs from batteries or USB -C and displays all the basic info you would need, It has a seperate little unit for measuring outside temp and humidity although I couldn't find anywhere saying the IP/waterproof rating for the unit so i have it on a window ledge under the eves of the house,The first time you turn it on it finds the signal and sets all the time and displays the temp/humidity moon phase etc, so far the forecast seems to have been pretty accurate and the display is really nice and clear, It would have been nice to see a full 7 day forecast on it but that's maybe something you pay more money for , I do seem to get bad signals in my bungalow even for the internet and this receives the data fine from the outside unit in the back garden fine but i have to have the main unit on my front rooms windowsill to get a signal for all the data.Overall it's a nice weather station that would have been nice to just see a few little extra features.

The weather device works absolutely fine, no issues.
Used for a week now, tells me the temperature inside the house and outside, the time, humidity and moon phase.
It was simple to set up. Seems to be well made. Very intriguing for my guests trying to guess what this device does. A bit of fun.

Our last weather station had to be replaced by the seller because it didn't show the outside temperature accurately. Now the replacement device behaves the same way. We decided to try this ALongSong weather station indoor outdoor thermometer. So far it's perfect. I said "so far" as it took a while for the other one to start giving inaccurate readings. Hopefully this device will continue to provide us with perfect readings. It not only shows temperature and humidity, but also offers weather forecast, moon phases, an alarm clock, air pressure index and other things. It does almost everything except washing dishes! I absolutely love this device and highly recommend it!

It's not "smart" like app-based IoT tech, but it's still pretty clever. It syncs with a satellite to keep the clock/calendar running precisely (took about 4 hours to get in sync when first plugged in). It comes with a temp/humidity sensor unit which is installed outside and the data comes back to the weather station to give you a truly accurate local reading. You can add on a total of 3 different external sensors, in case you want to monitor the temps in areas of your home, inside or out. The station also gives you the weather forecast for the next 24 hours. The display adjusts to work well the ambient lighting around it. It comes with a USB-A to USB-C cable which can be used to power the station, but there's also a slot for AA batteries so your station will keep working, even during a power outage.

Overall this is a good weather station. Easy to set up. One thing I noticed was that when I first got it and plugged it in with the adaptor the screen would go dark after 10 seconds. It seems that whenever the atomic clock is getting the time the screen goes dark. Once the atomic clock was set the screen stayed on. The atomic clock gets the time at 1 am, 2 am and 3 am (and on first use). At these times the screen goes dark for exactly 3 minutes and comes back on. This was so frustrating at first. I thought I had a defective unit and was ready to return it. I finally figured it out and am happy with it.
