This is the third one I have purchased. And all worked great . The display units are still working fine. The first sensor the wind cups fell apart so I replaced the whole thing. The next one I purchased the access with it so I could keep up with the weather no matter where I was. Then the access unit failed and I purchased the direct wi-fi and have the new sensor still in the box and using the old sensor and all three displays are still working. One in the kitchen, one beside the recliner and the oldest one is in my workshop. If I ever need to buy another one I definitely will buy another 5 in one
The Direct-to-WiFi display is easy to read and is a great upgrade from older AcuRite displays. We had difficulty connecting to our ISP's WiFi hub, though, and eventually switched to the Access interface to allow web connection. Your mileage may vary, but as always, you can rely on AcuRite to help in the event you had any issues.
I love these units. This is our 3td one. The only thing I would like better is that on this new unit, the screen is dark. I have to walk over by it to read it
The instructions that were sent are not very good to follow we found better ones online. Now the app is not connecting with sensor even though there is a strong connection between the app and the sensor. This is very disappointing to the fact that you pay good money for this and its not performing the way it should..

We apologize if your station is offline but we would be happy to assist! First, please ensure that your outdoor sensor is still connected to the indoor display. A hard reset may need to be performed to get them reconnected. https://support.acurite.com/hc/en-us/articles/360013636754-AcuRite-Iris-5-in-1-Reset If your unit are already connected, your display may have lost its Wi-Fi connection due to interference. Please relocate the display until you see a strong Wi-Fi connection. For further assistance, please reach out to our support team via live chat or email request.
