Product review (1 stars): No Wall Mount....Stopped Working...Updated Review..
I've had several weather stations over the years.  For the most part, they're life expectancy seems to be about 3 years on average. Then they start to give screwy readings or just die.  Every once in a while you run into something when shopping that technology just hasn't been able to tackle as far as reliability yet.  This seems to be the case with home weather stations like this.  There are hardly any on Amazon that has a good proportion of solid positive reviews.  So far this one at the time of this wrting is about average...

As for my own evaluation of it, I have to admit I didn't have any problems setting it up, and actually found it quite easy.  Either the direction booklet that comes with it has been redesigned, or some people just didn't receive one.  For I had this up and running with the settings adjusted in about 15 minutes.  Admittedly I haven't messed with the alarm part of it for I never have any intention of using it as one. Nor have I looked into using the memory feature.  I have never used either on any weather station I have had in the past.  But setting the time, zone for the weather forecast, and the overall set up of the outside sensor was easy and worked just as described.  Though the sensor and home unit paired very quickly, allow plenty of time for the sensor to adjust to the outside temp as to its being an accurate reading.  I set this up outside, ( on a screw I installed myself.  No hardware of any kind is included with this) and it took over an hour for the temperature to lower itself to what it really was outside.  Since then it has given an accurate temp compared to other readings in the area.  Also, no batteries came with this either, and it takes 5 AAs altogether....And although I have seen others mention a humidity readout, I can't find it on mine.  But that is no real importance to me.  Everyone that is truly into weather knows its the dew point that is the true measure of how muggy and uncomfortable is outside, and the humidity statistic doesn't really mean squat. No loss there as far as I am concerned...Lastly, I have to agree with some of the other reviewers here that so far the forecast icon is nothing to depend on for sure.  It's been showing clouds during several days of bright sun, and vice versa.  But once in a while it manages to get it right....

Although this weather station has a back light on it, its activated by a button on the back.  That's kind of a pain and it would be much easier if it were in front as part of the base or something, but at least it has one.  My biggest complaint with this station is the fact that you cannot wall mount it.  It is set up with its wide base as a stand alone table top unit with no flat back for mounting on a wall. This is a big miss for me since I have the perfect spot for one on a wall and it can't be used there.  Maybe some people like these things on a desk or table but I prefer the wall and that's out with this thing.  Opinions may vary but I am taking one star off for that.  It's not mentioned in the description that its limited to a table or desk and one has to rely on reviews for the info.  That being said, overall I am so far satisfied with this unit for the price, which is one of the cheaper ones on Amazon. As for its reliability, time will tell. If this unit fails for any reason within what I consider an unreasonable amount of time I will be back to update this review.  But for now it was easy to set up and is working perfectly..

Update.  The outdoor sensor on this has quit working after less than 3  months.  It no longer is sending the temp, and it is in a protected area and the battery is fine.  I've seen this happen often in cheap units and there is no excuse for it.  No longer recommended by me....
