Summary of reviews
This rain gauge offers a mix of features that appeal to guests looking for accurate rainfall measurement and ease of use. Many guests appreciate its simple setup and the ability to track rainfall over time. However, concerns about durability and accuracy persist, particularly regarding the plastic components and the reliability of readings. Overall, it serves well for casual monitoring but may not meet the needs of those requiring precise data.

The unit works well but this is the 3rd gauge I had to purchase from you company. The exterior unit always fails to stop sending out a signal after a few years. I guess this is your plan obsolesce.

Rainfall measurement inaccurate

I have had this for about a year and a half, so it is out of warranty. The wireless sensor and display seem to work okay. But the main benefit was to measure rainfall. And it is very inaccurate despite the many adjustments I made to the rain collector. In the morning, it reads .02" even though it has not rained overnight. And one of the cheap plastic tabs broke, so now it is held together with Gorilla Tape. No replacement part available. Communicating with customer support via chat is a joke. There was a time you could actually speak to a real person at AcuRite, but no more. My outdoor glass & plastic rain collectors are fairly accurate. The idea of having an indoor rainfall measurement is great, if it would only be accurate. Save your money.

The molded plastic collection funnel that directs rain into the measuring device is flimsy and the tabs that secure it will break if subjected to any strain (such as the wind, that brings the rain, blowing on it). The idea may be sound but, the pennies you saved on plastic, doom this product to the trash bin.

I haven't had this item very long, so unable to comment for long time usage. As of now, it works great. Especially like not having to go out and empty the water out of it. Nothing to do with the item itself, but my fence leans a little, so trying to get the unit as close to level as possible, took a little bit to complete. If there was a base that can be raised if needed to help level it out a lot better, I would be interested it that also

It works great. Easy to read. It lets me know that it rained even when I did not know.

How disappointed I was after setting this up. I realised that when starting up, it is not possible to enter historical data for the past week, month or year to date. If the battery needs replacing, all data is lost. This is truly a very basic model .. would so easily have been made better by having a USB charging port and the ability to edit entries.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The unit works really good. Got it set up in no time and the first rain came as the unit started showing rainfall totals.

I purchased this product based on one of your remote thermometers I've used for years (and it's still working!).

I like that I can look back at yesterday's rain fall. Would like receiving unit to also show rain fall for two, three or more days ago. My old Oregon unit would, but theirs does not any more. Only the last 7 days. That is why I purchased yours.
