This weather station and display are excellent. We have this set up at a 2nd location away from our main home se we can monitor conditions remotely. The features of this bundle, combined with the My AcuRite app, make this a great setup for the price point. The only thing I wish it did differently is report the indoor temperature and humidity measured at the display to My AcuRite. When I ordered it I didn't catch that it doesn't do that, so we know everything going on outdoors remotely but no data regarding the indoor conditions.
Easy to set up and was purchased to replace older model I had for over 13 years. My old display synced with this so I have two now one upstairs and downstairs..
Not able to run on just batteries evan for a few seconds, and the instructions to connect to wiff are so pour I was never able to connect.

For full functionality, we do recommend using both the backup batteries and the included power adapter. When operating on battery power alone, the backlight is only available momentarily for 10 seconds by pressing the backlight button. We recommend reviewing the suggestions in the following link for assistance with setting up the Wi-Fi feature: https://support.acurite.com/hc/en-us/articles/360050596233-Direct-to-Wi-Fi-Weather-Station-Setup-
I've had one in my home for about 5 years. For Christmas I purchased one for each of my children. Since the wind is prevalent in one of the locations, we compare notes of severity. We are only 40 miles apart but the difference is amazing. Fun and practical tool to have year-round.
