Set itself up when plugged into the mains and batteries fitted. I've only had it a few hours but it does just what I want. Would have had 5 stars, but for the opaque instructions: incomplete, poor English, and some fuzzy images. (I also have the pdf version, and the jpg-type images don't have the resolution to be of much use.) I bought an extra remote and it caused me a lot of hassle to make it work. The answer was a little switch in the battery compartment that allows selection of the appropriate channel, but nowhere is it mentioned in the set-up section of the manual. To be fair, the suppliers responded in minutes to my message, even though their very brief advice wasn't helpful. Fortunately I found help on another forum.

Similar but more expensive than my previous one, works but very poor signal reception, Wont find time in most parts of the house, ended up in a bedroom then it worked, Cant use it in the position I require it as the old one did for many years. So looks OK but lacking in basic signal reception strength.

Great weather station does everything I wanted. One tiny niggle, when using the main display with batteries only, the display is not on all the time, only when you press the button on top and only visible for 10 seconds. You have to use supplied mains supply to have a permanent display.

Over quite a few years I have had a few weather stations, and, being a dedicated dog walker rely on them to give me an accurate forecast of the weather. I can honestly say that this one is the best one I have ever had. It sets itself up with the correct temperature and humidity and time, starting the minute you put the batteries in the outside sensor and plug the base unit in. It is in colour, a plus, and is very clear and easy to read. I am very impressed with it having had it for over a month now. It is a very good quality product and I thoroughly recommend it.
