Solid,

OK. I couldn't let the one-star 10-minutes of experience, Wal-Mart review go without a response. I'm shopping for a new remote sensor after 5+ years of perfect performance. Why? Because it fell off the tree, the toddler moved it, and it's lost in the snow. It still works fine but it's reading the ground/snow temperature (somewhere) and not the air temperature. This unit is solid. I give it my highest recommendation. It has accurately read 116F and -20F in Nebraska weather. It is always within 1 degree F of the National Weather Service reading and the batteries seem to last for about a year. The remote sensor has survied 2" hail and beatings with sticks by children. What more can I ask for? Oh yeah, $26 pricing. This is value that I wish I could get in a motor vehicle. I'll buy another unit and hope it provides another 5+ years of faithful service.
