Be sure you have satellite coverage before purchasing. Even though the previous satellite location used was still listed in the handbook, we were unable to receive coverage with this product, making it unusable.

Unit never worked out of the box. I set it up like the book instructed to a local weather station which was in the menu. Set for a week with nothing showing up except it had lunched the new batteries I installed at the get go. Wasn't worth sending back considering postage to return. The book gave a website to find out if there was a station around the area but that didn't work either and I did not call the 800 number.
Pros: Never worked
Cons: Didn't receive a signal
Would recommend: Yes

We appreciate the bonus "free" gift of the Bushnell Wireless Weather Station-3Day AccuWeather Forecast and Satellite Clock. It's nice and handy to see what the weather holds for 3 days when planning outdoor activities. The only con was that is took what seemed like several minutes until our locale(Washington,D.C.) was displayed on the monitor.
Pros: Nice to see weather conditions for 3 days
Cons: seemed to take some time to reach our city locale
Would recommend: Yes

Purchased 2 units from QVC last year, one unit don't register temperatur accurate like the other unit. I really like the product but can't understand why this one unit doesn't. Today I replaced all fresh new batteries now the screen is totally blank but display my home city. I came to the website looking for instruction to fix the problem.
Pros: great device for quick weather forecast
Cons: Defect unit
Would recommend: Yes

I don't know about Bushnell's other Weather Stations, but based upon this one I would avoid them and go with one from Lacross instead (I have one of those as well and while it isn't perfect either, it has proved to be much more accurate).
Pros: Cheap (in my case it was a free gift with riflescope purchase)
Cons: Doesn't represent accurate weather reports in my area despite having a location near my home. Additionally it looses settings when you swap batteries (which is somewhat frequently)
Would recommend: No

Totally inaccurate and too slow to respond to changes. Once 'current temp' would say '40' for example, it'd be 40 for 5 straight days.
Forecast for next day said "High 105, low 5" one day in December!
Can't get any signal anywhere except outside, and not much of one there.
Pros: Looks like it should work
Cons: Totally inaccurate and slow to respond
Would recommend: No

This might work well in the larger cities but would not connect in Central Texas.
Pros: easy set up
Cons: didn't work at all in my non metropolitan area
