Customer Reviews for AcuRite - Iris (5-in-1) Weather Station with Direct-to-Wi-Fi Display for Remote Monitoring - White/Black

This is my 3rd AcuRite weather station. The first I left at the house I sold for the new owners. It had functioned well for many years. When I bought my second AcuRite for my new house, I was very disappointed to find out the myAcuRite app could not be used with it. Very disheartening that this was not readily mentioned on the order site. Finally, after a year of frustration, I ordered a new model, and confirmed that it was compatible with the MyAcurite app, and was very pleased. The dissatisfaction comes in after I ordered 2 additional sensors (like I had on my original), only to find my new weather station is not compatible with adding additional sensors. It took me an hour of research (after a couple of hours trying to install them) to find this out. In all fairness, AcuRite needs to provide a list of what is and what is not compatible with each bundle. Now I'm stuck for a couple of years with the inability to add additional sensors.

It is great, one big flaw for our area, living in an a climate with snow, once it snows, the wind gage does not work, would be nice to have a self warming feature so the snow melts.

Got one for the new house. Had to leave the old one when we sold. Great product. Fun to watch the weather trends

I love Acurite, truly. But this Direct to WiFi Display will not stay connected to my router for more than 30 minutes. Support is limited to email only, which is a brutal way to resolve issues. I have read about similar issues in the ratings area. The IRIS sensor is functioning exceptionally well, so I can see local info, but only on the display. I see that newer models have an antenna that may improve connectivity (my display is 8' from my router), but I have little confidence that I can get this product to perform any internet related functions.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I always wanted something better that my old indoor outdoor temperature gauge. This fits the bill perfectly for me. Easy install if you don't count climbing a ladder to the peak of the roof. I hooked it up to my WiFi and with the app can check it anywhere.

I purchased this so I could use the 7 in 1 (Atlas) display with the 5 in 1 sensor. They are incompatible. Since I bought the 7 in 1 sensor it displayed wind an order of magnitude too high.
