BACK STORY
With new twin boys in the house we discovered that our existing old-school-style thermometer (a tube containing liquid glued along a scale) was showing completely the wrong temperature. The ideal temperature for babies, seemingly is around 18 deg Celsius (about 64.4 deg F). It turns out that the thermometer had fallen apart years ago and had simply been glued back together by some idiot (me!), but in the wrong place. So we needed a new one. Or two.
I read a number of favourable reviews for this model and so ordered two: one for the boys' bedroom and the other for the living room.
CONSISTENT
When they arrived they proved to be simple to set up (make sure the battery is seated correctly by removing the protective plastic strip) and then I sat them side-by-side for a few hours to see how consistent they were -- I expected them to display roughly the same temperature.
A few hours later and they were pretty spot on. At best they were displaying exactly the same reading. At worst they were about 0.1 degree out. I could live with that.
ACCURACY
We've not been able to carry out any kind of scientific tests to check its accuracy, but as a rough guide the built-in thermometer on the baby monitor displays roughly the same temperature (give or take a degree or two), but as it's on the other side of the room from this one I'd expect different areas of the room to register different readings.
NIGHT LIGHT
A small button on the side, which needs little more than pressing your finger very gently on it -- almost swiping your finger across it, displays a blue night-light for about 5 seconds or so.
When the light is on there is a very faint buzz, which I'd expect from something at this price, but it's certainly not loud enough to disturb the children.
CONCLUSION
I'd certainly recommend these thermometers to anyone. They are small, discreet, accurate, consistent and have proved to be a real asset and provide piece of mind.

I bought two as I suspected they would give different readings (as thermometers often due). I was wrong - they both give virtually the same readings although they did need the best part of an hour after "opening the box" to settle down. Definitely recommended and I am buying two more for different rooms in the house.
LATER...these worked well to start with but within 18 months both meters developed a high pitched whine and quickly ran the batteries down. New batteries installed and the same thing happened so I have had to lower my rating for the gadget. A pity because I liked it.

This was a nice little product, with a good feature set. The thermometer appears quite accurate, as does the hygrometer.
The light is nicely worked out (by a simple touch). All in all, it does all you could ask from this kind of product. I like it.

Information after 6 months
After 6 months this hygrometer no longer shows the humidity of the room. Instead it reads HH. This would appear to be high humidity but infact it is broken. Read more

Brilliant product
Really good product with good value for money. I have recently brought a dehumidifier and this lets me keep track of the level and works perfectly.

does just what it says
Excellent bit of kit, which has unfortunately done its' job and proved that I have a lot of humidity in the house

Good
Not much to say about. Works well. The only thing is that it could be a little bit bigger. It's only like 6cm (app.) tall.

Not What I Ordered
What I received is not a hygrometer and min/max thermometer. The top reading is a clock that I cannot set and the bottom reading is a thermometer that appears to work as described. Read more

If you are a freak like me and want to know the temperature and humidity of a room, this is perfection. Need I say any more!?

A great tool for recording air temperature and moisture, just a shame it doesn't have a convenient on/off switch. Read more
