 Good gift for nerds January 6, 2009

I bought this for my boyfriend who's majoring in atmospheric science. He gave it four stars but personally I would have given it five. It's a nice size fitting on most shelves, attractive, unique, and fairly acurate considering it's pretty old technology. I imagine this would not be a good gift for kids- it's very fragile.

Arriving in a timely manner, the thermometer equilibrated in a short time after setting it up. It is easy to read, accurate enough for domestic purposes, and attractive. The storm glass was easy to fill though filling it took longer than I supposed. Now the storm glass agrees with the local weather people and provides a great deal of satisfaction. I'm pleased with this product.
