have to say, very disappointed with TF. ordered the thermometer and it came unpacked from display box inside a larger brown outer box. whoever packed it could obviously see that there was NO TRANSMITTER in the packaging and therefore shouldn't have sent it. contacted TF customer service and they said...nothing..because they haven't gotten back to me since I wrote to them 2+ days ago. oh well, guess it's just as well because it's not worth it to send back--lesson learned. buyer beware, I'll stick to my other online sales

I'm also disappointed. The description said that it showed the minimum/maximum temperature/humidity indoors and outdoors, and time occurred. It also states this on the package, but there is no way it is going to show the time the max or min temperature occurred.

Also, it is transmitting the outdoor temperature, but not humidity. I think we've been "had."

I've been looking for the above features for a long time, so I ordered three.

You might just give them time, they sometimes take 4-5 days. to respond as long as you sent message through help desk.

Perk up lil camper! Wink Dancing

Give them some time to look over the problem and get back to you. You just might be pleasantly surprised. The Royal Court here really tries to make things right for people who have had a problem with an item.

I could finish this up with some cryptic "Snatch this pebble from my hand" comment but that would be going a bit too far.Rolling Eyes

**boxes are worn or damaged.

Worn is fine. Anyone have some info on how damaged they may look? I'd hate to purchase and have them so destroyed to have the actual item be broken. Then FORCED to pay the return shipping costs.

I just got oe of these. I hope the remote sensor works. I got one that wasn't as nice in the AMB. I gave it to my Father and the sensor doesn't work. Hopefully between the 2, he can have one complete working unit. He is obsessed with the temp and he LOVED the one I gave him. He will be over the moon if I can get the remote part working.

So you would suggest buying multiples to get 1 (one) functional unit?

How are they packaged? Box type material, Or that sharp sealed plastic? ( We say better than processed food. lol )

Sorry about the multiple Q's just on the fence on this one. Brick wall

I have only tried the one and it was the same brand but a different model. I was actually thinking as long as I got one, I should have gotten 2. I could use one in my home and I do think they are kind of nifty. Oh well, I got mine before Midnight and now the shipping has rolled over.

Anyway, as I said. Mine was another model but it came packed in the plastic that is impossible to cut open and becomes razor sharp once it is cut. It was a nice looking, intact package though.

Got my 3 sets today. The boxes were not damaged and they looked like unused, but like most people mentioned here, the remotes don't work well. Here is a picture taken with the 3 sets together (click the image for bigger picture).

Mine are still listed as processing... but as others have said in many threads that doesn't mean it isn't on its way. Many of us( me included) have received items while TF still shows processing. I really want these to hurry up and get here. It has been breaking the 100 degree mark the last few days. Sad

lol and out of the 2 I ordered both remote sensors work but one of the main/ base units doesn't. But thats ok 1 base and 2 remotes serves my purposes fine so it's all good for me. YMMV
