Customer Review: Looks nice, works as described
The unit I received is up and running. I have 2 remote sensors, one outside and one upstairs and both receive signals from the base just fine. A couple of problems, my unit does not have the lcd backlight feature and the atomic clock has never received a signal (in the middle of the burbs in FLA).
Customer Review: Flaky remote sensors
The internal sensor works splendidly, and I like the moon phase indicator. The forecast thingy seems to be right more often than not, which makes it just as good as the professionals for short-term (say, 12-hour) forecasts. The external sensors aren’t so hot. Occasionally when it’s very cold (like, 20s F) the sensor shuts down. If this goes on long enough, the base loses track of the sensor and you have to manually make it go search again. I don’t believe that this is due to the battery - a new alkaline battery shouldn’t have trouble at this temperature, they certainly work OK in other devices I own. Their web site has a FAQ that indicates this might be due to a defect in the sensor unit, and that I should call their customer service. I called their support phone line, and the support person claimed to know nothing about this. This device comes with 2 sensors, but there’s really little value to the second one. Perhaps if I could place them both outside and the base would consolidate the readings to compensate for outages like I described, or artificially heating a sensor by sunlight, then they would be useful. But that’s not how it works. Maybe if you want to monitor your garage… Sitting on my desk next to a window in an office building in New Jersey, it’s not able to receive the synchronization signal from the atomic clock. I’ve got to bring it outside to synchronize itself.
Vogue Living: Houses, Gardens, People
This unique book of thirty-six spectacular houses and gardens—whose owners come from the worlds of fashion, music, art, and society—draws not only on stories that have appeared in the pages of Vogue and Vogue Living over the past two decades but also on images that have never before been published. Vogue Living: Houses, Gardens, People takes you to these style-makers’ private realms around the world, captured by such celebrated photographers as Miles Aldridge, Cecil Beaton, Jonathan Becker, Eric Boman, Oberto Gili, Fran?ois Halard, Horst P. Horst, Annie Leibovitz, Sheila Metzner, Mario Testino, Tim Walker, and Bruce Weber, among many others. Their dazzling photographs bring to life interiors and exteriors, modern and classical, that are both inspiring and transporting. Writers like Hamish Bowles, Joan Juliet Buck, Dodie Kazanjian, Eve MacSweeney, Julia Reed, Marina Rust, and Vicki Woods take us behind the scenes to give us an intimate view of the owners and how they live.
Here are Madonna’s romantic rural retreat in the depths of the English countryside and the Oscar de la Renta’s coral-stone Palladian mansion on the coast of the Dominican Republic; Michael and Eva Chow’s epic Los Angeles manse and shoe maestro Christian Louboutin’s magical houseboat on the Nile; Donna Karan’s Zenlike Manhattan aerie and legendary tastemaker Marella Agnelli’s enchanted villa and gardens in the Palmeraie of Marrakesh; Julian and Olatz Schnabel’s operatic downtown loft and childrenswear designer Rachel Riley’s miniature ch?teau on the Loire; celebrated landscape gardener Fernando Caruncho’s innovative Spanish gardens and Houghton, David Cholmondeley’s magnificent English stately home; Janet de Botton’s idyllic Proven?al estate; and four decades of Karl Lagerfeld’s endlessly surprising houses, both innovative and palatial.
Lavishly illustrated in full color, Vogue Living: Houses, Gardens, People is an irresistible voyage through some of the world’s most beautiful and private gardens and interiors.

Customer Review: sumptious living
There is no disputing that this is a sumptuous volume. Lavishly produced, its oversized 384 pages are crammed with images of exquisite rooms and lush gardens from 36 unique homes, owned by the rich and/or famous in Europe, America and North Africa and into the likes of which you and I will never set foot. (Which is the reason, thankfully, such books are produced and why we lesser mortals buy them.) There are rooms modern and rooms classic, arranged with the taste, elegance and restraint of the world’s best decorators and captured by the world’s greatest photographers. And yet the rooms are not museum pieces, but are demonstrably inhabited by their owners, their well-scrubbed children and their adorable dogs, such as the greyhound on page 317 filching a piece of cheese from the dinner table. My favourite room which is featured on the front jacket cover is of Janet de Botton’s breakfast room in Provence, its French chateau d?cor a study in white, cream and faded pastel, the background, literally a wall of china - floral motifed white plates and platters displayed on white-painted, floor-to-ceiling wooden plate racks built into the walls. (Already I’ve been measuring my walls to see how I can incorporate something similar - though less vast - into my old house). At the opposite end of the d?cor spectrum is Amanda Brooks NYC loft, all kitsch and brash eye-popping colour like a Barbie Doll house with Brooks herself photographed in a Barbie Doll style gown in a Barbie Doll pose. (It’s not to my personal taste but cleverly done & I had to look twice to be sure the figure lying stiffly across the bed wasn’t a mannequin). If you are a fan of d?cor books you will find plenty more here to inspire, amuse and entertain you and your like-minded friends and family. So why did I hold back from a five star rating? My quibble is with the empty 14 pages devoted to Madonna which might have been put to better use: Madonna’s cow pastures, M. with (admittedly cute) children; a gowned & high-heeled & coiffed M. feeding the chickens (as if!); M. canoodling with husband, a double-page shot of M’s sheep — & only one tiny interior shot, a sitting room that was rearranged by the photographer & does not reflect the actual d?cor of Madonna’s house - which might have been of real interest even to a non-fan like me. Thus the book falls just a little short of being, for me, the epitome of the coffee-table d?cor genre.
