I bought this clock and it came broken. I sent it back and the next one came broken. Sent that one back and that came broken!!! They package a ceramic clock with one piece of brown paper in the box and that was it! i called customer service because I still wanted the clock, but she could not guarantee that they would package it correctly so I said forget it!! Extremely disappointed!! If the review came with a zero star instead of one star I would have rated it that way!!!!!!!!! DON'T BUY THIS!!!!!

Very attractive design. Can't trust the themometer and the clock work is a standard cheap quartz movement. Place this piece out of the way as the hands ride a good inch above the body and are easily snagged and bent.

As a clock and thermometer, it deserves less than 1 star. I gave it three stars because it is pretty.

This item does not look like the picture at all, and unfortunately the thermometer does not appear to be working correctly

I read the reviews before purchasing this item, and I regret not acknowledging the majority of the advise...what can I say, I was hopeful.

Aside from the fact that this item arrived broken, as did others who have left reviews, It is truly nothing like the picture. It does not have beautiful delicate ivy hinged with purple flowers and sweet purple dragonflys with black numbering. Instead it is a nasty brown cluttered mess, with 3 types of greenery and hideous brown bugeyed dragonflys and brown numbers. I posted a picture under customer images for this product to show the difference.

Needless to say, I was extremely disapointed and found the picture very missleading, but I have learned my lesson :) Hope this helps anyone.

The clock/thermometer was packed very well and came to me in perfect condition. I hung it on our deck facing the pool and it is so attractive and is on time and the temp registers faithfully. A lovely addition to the decor!
Amazon.com is the ideal and reliable place to make an order. Everything I have ordered has come in perfect condition!

I bought this clock/thermometer for my new house it was broken almost in half . I have received my replacement and the thermometer hasn't been off 80. It doesn't work either. I am returning it and am afraid to try again. I had a clock just like it which lasted about 10 years before the thermometer wore out. Please refund my money or send me a new one that works.

the item was purchased as a gift for my wife, and she likes it.
it is a bit heavy (7 lbs) for hanging on the house aluminum siding.
the first one shipped was poorly packaged and it broke in two.
the second one shipped was poorly packaged and two of the three light gage spinner dial needles were badly bent. I straightened them and hope they last a few years; I made note of that in a post-purchase correspondence with Amazon but heard no more.
The replacement of the busted original was done very expeditiously, good work on that.

This is a beautiful piece. It was a Mother's day gift and she loves it!
