Title: Accurite Rain Gage Review
Review: First of all, I bought this item at Walmart for $20. So the Amazon base price is about $15 too high, not to mention the additional shipping cost.The original unit didn't work - the digital display jumped from zero to .66 inches all at once triggering the alarm (with no rain falling). Then we had a rainstorm, and it read .00 inches the whole time. I thought perhaps I had bought a lemon, so I took it back to Walmart. They cheerfully swapped it out for another. Same story for unit #2 - the counter just jumped from zero to over an inch. Walmart once again was very nice and refunded all of my money.Given that a couple of people have had good results, I'm guessing the design is OK but the manufacturing QC over in China is poor. But as far as I'm concerned, this instrument is a piece of junk.
