Easiest thing you'll ever setup!

"Just put in the batteries and your good to go. The new "feels like" temperature feature gives an even better perspective of the conditions outside.

"First 8 months battery use was minimal..Maybe a change every 3 months...After that we needed to change the batteries every 7 to 10 days. Very expensive and frustrating. [...]When it worked it was a great way to get information re: weather, time and temperature. "

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

"Really bummed. This was the coolest tool, but then stopped working. It ate batteries like they were going out of style too. Other than that the first year was awesome-- always having a forecast at your fingertips. "

"I had purchased the previous model for my dad last year for his birthday. He loved it... and then it stopped updating. I exchanged my old one for this one and the fact that we don't have to pay a monthly fee for the local weather is a bonus!! It has a much better signal and it just looks nicer. "
