Still my husband liked it a lot.
BUT... unfortunately the tiny plastic cover that holds the batteries in broke. Without this little piece of plastic the batteries won't stay in.
After contacting the manufacturer I just got the simple answer:
"..We are sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Oregon Scientific product.
We apologize but the battery cover is not sold separately. Please be advised that we don't sell parts and we don't have repair sites for our units.
Hope this information helps...."
No, it did not help at all, so I wrote back asking very politely why it is too difficult to sell a little piece of plastic to a customer.
They never got back to me.
I definitely cannot recommend buying Oregon Scientific products!
Buy Oregon Scientific FSW301A-K Modena Ferrari Speedometer Line Weather Station Now
Fun but informative product with the Ferrari name. Seems pretty accurate and the system was easy to set up, program and get running. It doesn't offer a whole bunch of data but enough to know from the basics. Ideal for the office desk. The outdoor sender unit is best placed where it cannot be affected by too much weather. The sender unit is not that weatherproof. Overall a good product and it makes an ideal gift.This is an awesome weather station. The temp is precise. It's full of features. You are sure to love this station, if you choose to purchase it. The only problem that I am currently experiencing is that the atomic clock seems to be picking up Pacific time rather than Central. I will surely get this figured out though.Want Oregon Scientific FSW301A-K Modena Ferrari Speedometer Line Weather Station Discount?
It lasted a month, until it fell off a low table and the battery compartment door broke. There're two tiny little pieces that holds the door in. One of them broke off when the clock fell, which rendered the unit unusable, because it was the only thing keeping the door in, thus keeping the batteries in. The clock looked great and we were very happy with it. But the design is flawed when it comes to the battery compartment. Now it's just a box and useless.
