I've had an AcuRite weather station for about 10 years. Great products and excellent support!

Direct to WiFi Display will not stay connected to router.

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.

A beautiful display and very functional. I have it hooked to Weather Underground and can see the output there. Also access the information from Acurite's app. Neat stuff.
Tried to get my display to pair with my home WiFi but the display wouldn't recognize any WiFi so I was unable to view weather data online. Tried several different times and other WiFi in area but no WiFi was recognized.

This 5 in 1 weather station is easy to set up and pair to your wifi. The Acurite app works well and details a large amount of weather information. I monitor both my winter home and summer home on the app. This is a great product.
