Direct Buy Furniture: La Crosse Technology Ltd WS-8157U-CH-IT Atomic Digital Wall Clock Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I received this unit 2 years ago as a Christmas present.At the time I didn't realize it was atomic and had had bad luck with another wireless temperature gauge.

It has become one of my favorite household furnishings!The clock is large and easy to read, it is also atomic, so I never have to set it and it is ALWAYS right.The initial setup takes about 5 minutes and it's worth sitting in a comfy chair and investing a few minutes with the manual to get your time zone and other settings correct.The wireless sensor has a decent range on it and will go through a couple of walls (note, place the sensor in an area that will receive no sunlight, otherwise it will give a falsely high reading).

It is also a battery miser, I have never changed the batteries in the sensor or wall unit, 2 years going!

The temperature readings appear to be surprisingly accurate in comparison with internet temps.Also, I don't know how the middle icon gets it's information to display the weather but it's usually right.

If there is one drawback it's that there is no back-lighting option.I wish it had an indi-glo feature or something similar.

Also this has a nice wooden coloring to it vs. the silver and stainless looking clocks which I think is nice for displaying in the home.

Get one, I use mine every single day multiple times and it's a great value based clock.

(note: my actual clock has an oak coloring to it, I'm not sure this color was available 2 years ago)
