Comments about Davis Instruments Vantage Vue Complete Wireless Weather Station:
I had a weather station that had failed and needed replacement. After much research I decided on the Vantage Vue unit. Right from the beginning I knew I had made the right choice. Installation was really easy and the beautifully detailed instructions made the set up a breeze(no pun intended). I am amazed at the amount of information the unit can give and it even has a sense of humor. During a particularly heavy downpour the screen displayed "it's raining cats and dogs." I highly recommend this unit for the person who is, like myself, interested in the current local weather. Best I have seen for the modest price.

Comments about Davis Instruments Vantage Vue Complete Wireless Weather Station:
Probably the easiest set up and very easy to use. Manual could be clearer given the number of features the unit provides but with time you get the hang of all the ones you really use. Having owned several weather stations in the past, this one ranks at the top of my list for quality and ease of setup and use.
