What's great about it: Reliable, easy to use
What's not so great: Not puppy proof
We have had this product for two years and have not had any problems with it. The only reason I am looking at it now is because we got a new puppy that thought it was a snack, so I am on here to purchase another one. The outdoor sensor has been outside for a couple years, in the elements, so I would say it most certainly IS waterproof. We have been very happy with this product and did not realize how dependant we were on it until the "chewing incident". As a side note, you can play fun pranks on your spouse by putting the sensor in the freezer or holding it above a heater momentarily. Enjoy!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Big display
What's not so great: Outdoor weather sensor that's not waterproof, Temp Specs that only go to -2F?!
I bought this because they don't advertise the exact specs on the outside of the box (Another Con). When I got home and opened it up, I found that the outdoor weather sensor isn't water proof... hmm, sounds like a no brainer to me. The biggest thing that upset me was that they had a Temp range that went down to only -2F... In NEW ENGLAND where temps can easily get in the winter down to -15 to -20F! Absolutly Worthless! Do not buy it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
