Customer Review
- Reviewed in Canada on May 31, 2025I recently bought the used version of the AcuRite weather station in "mint" condition. It seems to work fine. A new feature is a humidity and temperature range in addition to the original current humidity and temperature display for indoors and outdoors. Unlike other weather stations, the display is pleasant, well-designed, and easy to read. The new version has more colours. I appreciate that this model is corded and can be plugged in.
However, I have an old AcuRite model (pre-2019), and I was surprised that the new version is so much smaller. Morover, although the used version works, I was disappointed in the packaging by 鶹. I knew it would not be in its original packaging, but it was wrapped in used bubble wrap that had no air in the bubbles, and then in a plastic bag. There was not much cushioning during transport, even though it was in a larger box with another product with some paper filler, but the products had ample room to get jostled around.
The worst part of buying used -- and I doubt I will do it again -- is the strong perfumy scent of the product. All wrapping including the product itself are infused with this "air freshener." I cannot get rid of this "sticky" scent even though I wiped everything multiple times. I wish such scents were not used as they cause allergic reactions in some people and may be potentially toxic as many man-made chemical scents are. I've had the weather station sitting out to air for days but the overpowering scent won't go. I will likely not be able to use it in a bedroom as planned. I regret buying used and wish I'd bought new in the original packaging.
