Youshiko Wireless Colour Weather Station (Premium Quality/HD Display) Radio Controlled Clock (UK 2025 Version) Indoor Outdoor Temp Humidity Max Min with 24 Hour Auto Reset

Youshiko Wireless Colour Weather Station I tried a number of different weather stations before I bought this one. This was the most expensive which probably explains why it was the last! My problem with the other products was display. Lovely and bright and colourful, but unfortunately terrible viewing angles and or annoying flashing displays. Viewing angle definitely is an issue with the colour displays used for all the products I tried. Some are better for viewing when they are above your eye level, some are better when they are below your eye levels, none of them are perfect and you have to choose which you need. If you are more than a foot beyond the viewing angle the display fades and you just can’t read it. The Youshiko Wireless Colour Weather Station has a display that you need to to place on or BELOW your eye level. So it’s ideally suited to a sideboard or bedside table. Not suitable for a high position on a bookcase or similar, the display fades very fast once your eyes get below the screen. The display is nice and bright. Not as big as some of the competition. The only comparison I can think of is that the screen area is about the same width and twice the height of the new Smart Meter displays and the numbers are about the same size. It’s readable at the same sort of distances too, so up to about three meters or so you can clearly read all of the information and the larger numbers like temperatures and time you can read at up to about than six meters with a bit of squinting. While being a different size and different viewing angles there is no particular quality difference between the Youshiko and any other product I tried. The measurements seem pretty accurate. Certainly the temperature was accurate to within about 0.1~0.2 degrees C. Everything feels good quality. The instructions are concise and clear. The only thing you have to do is set the current weather conditions, then after that it looks after itself. The remote sensor needs to be positioned outside, but is weather resistant so as long at its out the sun and direct rain you are fine. The weather prediction is of course pretty inaccurate. Setting up the sensor wasn't always easy. I used a half dead set of batteries at first and when they ran out a few days later, it proved quite difficult to get it to connect to the sensor again. I used the search button and so on but in the end had to power the main unit on and off several times to get it to work. One thing the unit really needs is an indicator to show when it hasn't received a signal from the outside sensor in say five minutes. It could really do with that. It’s a nice product. A little expensive, but given the failings of the other products I tried, it's worth it.

This is a super weather station. It has replaced one that we have had for 10 years. The old one was so difficult to set up. This new one is excellent. Just set up the outdoor sensor and put in batteries for the indoor one and it sets itself up in no time. Marvellous. It has a very clear display, showing the indoor and outdoor temperature. Also the highest and lowest temperatures and the weather forecast for the day. the date and time set up by itself. We like the smart appearance of the machine with its white surround. We would highly recommend this weather station if you want a simple, straightforward machine that is not too complicated. Some of them show too many things making it difficult to read. Not this one, it is just right. It also comes at a good price and excellent service, arriving before the time stated.

The unit looks and feels of reasonable quality and build with a clear display. Its easy to set up if you can receive the MSF UK signal in your area, pressing the weather button for 3 seconds and choosing if its sunny or degrees of cloudiness, then pressing the weather button again and that's it. The unit will search for the MSF signal and do the rest of the setup. You can do a manual setup if, like me, couldn't get a MSF signal even though it was 500mm from a window. The Wireless sensor in my case had a very short range, placing it at the back of my house resulted in no signal from the Wireless sensor, moving it to the front of the house directly under the window on the ground to where the unit was placed still did not work, that being about 4 meters away. Next was to place it under the front door canopy and retried to get a signal and this time it did work, the distance was under 2 meters. I am not sure if its just a "one off" with the placing of the unit or if the Wireless sensor genuinely has a poor range. Bear that in mind when you are locating the unit.

After returning two other makes that you required a science degree to set up , ths one is so simple all set up in less than two minutes , No long and complicated programs and instructions that you cannot read or understand . This unit is very clear to read and has two levels of brightness and one no lght , Note the battery is for back up and the unit is best run on the mains , Just plug the unit in press weather scroll the four pictures using the plus or minus buttons and choose the one that looks like the weather outside ALL DONE , The unit sets up the wi fi for the outdoor sensor mine works well at 25 metres , look to see if the signal icon is flashing if not press WAVE mine took 20 minutes to connect to the weather station and register ,time, date weather ,other changes like alarm, far / cent are all easy. Well done Youshikeo, a great piece of kit . Ths morning it was heavy cloud as the morning progress it went to light cloud . Very pleased customer and a genuine appraisal

This is a replacement weather station for the one that I had for years and had just failed. I was so happy with the old one that I chose the same make, but a different model. The new one is very clear to read. The graphics are clear and functional and the case is very smart in appearance. It is very accurate matching other available weather information.

Amazon keep clumping reviews together for different items and then not always saying which review applies to which product. This review applies to the Youshiko colour weather station with HD display (see photos). This looks and feels like a top quality product. The display is bright, vibrant and so much better than a normal LCD display. After unpacking, I put batteries in the outdoor sensor, plugged in the main unit and everything but the clock started working straight away. I don't know if its because I live in Norfolk or if its because we have solar panels but I have 3 other radio controlled clocks in the house and they all struggle to get the time signal particularly during the day, however this Youshiko unit did a good job and picked up the signal after a few attempts. I was surprised but pleased to see the clock displaying seconds instead of the day, it seems seconds are the default and it changes to day when the alarm is set. I really like this weather station it is good looking and accurate. Even my children looked at it and said 'wow'!

The product worked well for 4 days. During that time the screen was bright and the readings relatively accurate. Today it died. Replacement of batteries, forced reset and various other actions taken without effect. Moral of the tale: Don’t buy a device from a company about which the only public information available is its registered address (a residential street in Romford, Essex) and the name of its sole director. Will be sending it back for a refund.

Would say it’s a very good unit and has been great for ages. But despite being sheltered from the elements the internals on the outside unit have given up the ghost after less than 18 months which is a shame meaning it’s useless to me now as it only measures inside temp due to the poor quality of the outside unit
