Lily's HomeAnalog Weather Station, with Galileo Thermometer, a Precision Quartz Clock, Analog Hygrometer, and Fitzroy Storm Glass Weather Predictor, 5 Multi-Colored Spheres (7 in x 4.25 in)

For presentation and packaging this is a 5 star item. However there are some concerns. I received the item with the storm glass containing a lot of crystals at the bottom, probably from shipment. It was packaged well so I did not think much of it. I reset the storm glass by heating the object with a hair dryer. It's been a week and the storm glass does not change. Still shows crystals at the bottom which indicates frost. My room is generally 70-75°F. Storm glasses usually work best if outside but this one is too small and delicate to be left outside. Perhaps in a windowsill some change will happen. In south Texas our summers are hot and long.The hygrometer does not match my digital hygrometer even after resetting that by exposure to salt in a controlled environment. It is off by about 10-15%. The clock although tiny seems to be accurate enough.The thermometer also seems to read well with no issues. The wood casing is gorgeous with a lovely stain and varnish. This is still a beautiful gift for anyone who wants something unique. I showed it compared to a glass Galileo thermometer I have. It's small but more suited to a desk. Overall, not bad at all and a great value.TLDRPros:Packaging in StyrofoamPresentation and colorsThermometer and functionsClockEase of setupCons:Tiny numbers on clock and hygrometer due to tiny sizeHard to remove clock or hygrometer without carefully avoiding any pressure on the glass vialsPotentially unreactive storm glassInaccurate and unadjustable or uncalibrated hygrometer

Smaller than I expected, but very cute and well constructed. The cherrywood finish looks clean, and compliments the gauges nicely. The battery in the clock was dead on arrival, but that was easily fixed with a dollar-store replacement. Thermometer works as expected, and the storm glass appears to function as well once it was reset by gently warming and melting the crystals. Would make a very nice gift for anyone, for any occasion!

The quality is decent with this weather station. It is small I thought it would be larger. It seems to work fine. I have discovered that the storm glass does not work well inside my house. But it does look nice on the mantle. This item is not weather proof. It would be great in a screened in porch, in my house it is more like a decoration. It is nice for the price.

Bought this for a brother-in-law who is hard to buy for, and he genuinely loved it. Hurrah! He reported that everything was accurate and works perfectly, and that he also found it fascinating. (He'd never even heard of Galileo thermometers, much less storm glass.) The mahogany finish makes it look classy on the shelf.

I purchased this item as a Christmas gift for my father who loved it. That is, until the very first time he actually touched the item. There is a small clock on the weather station (the whole item is small but really beautiful) as well as an instrument to measure the humidity. When you receive the item it tells you in the instructions to look up the humidity in your area and then adjust the setting on the weather station to that same reading by turning a small hand on the humidity gauge with a screwdriver. As soon as he touched the screwdriver to the humidity gauge the hand fell off inside the glass cover. There is no way to take the cover off and reattach the hand, so the humidity gauge is broken without ever having worked one day. It's possible that he just received a faulty weather station, but it seems like items of quality just are not made anymore. Very much a bummer because otherwise, the weather station is beautiful.

I gave this as a gift to my weather forecasting daughter. She loves it!

The one thing I wanted in this cute little device was the storm glass. The storm glass never moves. It stays the same level when the weather gets stormy or when the weather is fair. It’s a total waste of money.

It is very small and needs to be reset often . Not accurate
