Upgraded from a previous 5 year-old Acurite. Like the new display. It is much better. Scant directions in the Model 06096 handbook made initial set-up more tedious than it shoould have been.
This is my second unit. The first lasted 5 years, but stopped measuring wind and precipitation. Upon replacing it, I discovered that birds had clogged several parts. This one is working better than ever.
I gave this as a gift to my son and he loves it. I thought this model was WiFi but it's not. I am happy with my AcuRite product and my son is enjoying his AcuRite Iris.
Hey it works I think the wind gauge is more accurate in this one picks up wind gusts better. Ordered this because the temp gauge went bad in the old one- I think the fan quite working only accurate at night or cloudy day. I liked the old b/w displays better, we had 2, glad they work with the new unit. jfo
My old unit was going on 5 years old and stopped working. I have had a couple of your products so replaced the old with new. Great products with no complaints.
Once since installation (after a big rain), I had to reset the unit (by removing batteries from 5-1) to get it reporting again. Not the most promising sign.
