Love this rain gauge. You can view it from the house without having to go outside. I had one previously for about 7 years and it was still in good condition, but we moved and I left it. I was so glad I was able to find another one. And after reading the reviews about having to keep it from freezing, YES, just about anything will break if water freezes in it. Just bring it in for the winter.
My old one finally quit transmitting . This new one works great , and although this is a newer model, my old receiver works with it. Now I have a receiver in two rooms.
