 Piece of garbage! August 10, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It worked for a few weeks. Now, it no longer computes rainfall and I can't get the Total and Current display to stop blinking. I looked all through the booklet but nothing mentions my problem. I've E-Mailed the company and they had me pull the batteries, let it sit for a day and reinsert the batteries. I let it sit for two days, put in new batteries and still can't get it to work. I'm now waiting on a reply (takes about a week to get replies). I figured I'd spend additional money to get a good one - BIG MISTAKE!
UPDATE: They had me "reset" the unit. It worked. Unfortunately, we went through a dry spell. It just rained and guess what? It no longer works. To reset the unit AGAIN means pulling the cover, removing a bunch of screws, battery and hitting the reset button. But why do that - it will just stop working again. I sent a message back to the company. Let's see if they do the right thing. I will keep everyone informed.
UPDATE [September 6, 2008] - They replied with another question and haven't replied since August 28, 2008.
UPDATE [September 19, 2008] - Just got their reply (from August 28). They want me to go through the reset process again! I informed them that they win - I give up. Not once did they offer to provide a replacement or discount - super company!

This item had a lot of nice features. Unfortunately, it worked for about two minutes !
We had to send it back.
screwed up May 31, 2008
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
as noted by others, the screws are a real issue on this item. I liked everything else I read about it, so I bought it, but no matter what I did, I could NOT get the screws to unscrew and provide me with access to the battery compartment. they had evidently been stripped when the unit was assembled. while it may otherwise be a fine product, I'll not waste my time gambling on receiving a unit that is properly assembled.
 REALLY HARD TO USE May 25, 2008
This rain gauge is really hard to set and use. It has to be absolutely level to measure rain. I had to log on to the website to get through some of the set up problems. If it didn't cost more to return it than its worth I would do it. I thought this one would be better than the LaCrosse I had before. I will purchase another cheap LaCrosse and be happy again.
 accurate rain gauge May 12, 2008

We are enjoying the accurate data from the rain gauge.The memory feature and the bonus of the clock make it a valuable asset on the kitchen windowsill.
