Top pick: Temtop W100 weather station Best value: LIORQUE BJ8201-1 weather station – Cheapest console in the set, at about £16.14, with 4.2 from 1,298 UK reviews and batteries included if the sensor stays out of the rain. Updated October 2026.
A Baldr weather station on amazon.co.uk is an indoor console with a wireless outdoor sensor. It shows temperature and humidity, with a clock and a weather icon. The and the have no UK star line, so they are harder to weigh than the reviewed consoles next to them. Match the job: a hall thermo-hygrometer, or a wind-and-rain array you will mount in the open. For UK civil time the listing should say. The weather icon is a local pressure trend for the next 12–24 hours, not a Met Office forecast. Who should skip each pick is in our [best Baldr weather stations](/hub/climate-measuring/baldr-weather-station/sub/baldr-weather-station-best) guide. Some consoles ask you to wait 7 to 10 days before you treat the icons as settled. How to choose is set out in the [Baldr weather station buying guide](/hub/climate-measuring/baldr-weather-station/sub/baldr-weather-station-buying-guide).

Question 1 of 2
Where will you read the station?
The Temtop W100 is a 7 inch touchscreen at £189.24 that combines an outdoor wind, rain, and UV sensor with indoor PM2.5, PM10, CO2, TVOC, and an air-quality index. The listing shows 5.0 from 2 UK reviews. Both texts are positive, and that sample is too small to treat as a settled score. The listing is app-controlled on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, with OTA updates claimed, and the console still has a screen. A 4000 mAh backup is claimed for 4 or more hours, and 3 AA batteries are listed as included. The model code on the listing is EU-W100. Stated radio range in metres is not given, only a long-range description. At this price you are paying for air quality and an app as well as weather, on evidence that two buyers cannot carry.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A buyer who specifically wants indoor air-quality figures and Wi-Fi alongside wind and rain, and who can wait or accept a two-review sample.
Less suitable: Anyone choosing a hall clock, a condensation check, or a rain gauge on review volume. Two reviews cannot carry this price.
Specifications
Common questions
Does it need Wi-Fi?
The listing is app-controlled on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, with OTA updates claimed. The console also has a screen, so the link is not app-only in the description.
Can it detect indoor air pollutants?
Yes, as listed: PM2.5, PM10, CO2, TVOC and an air-quality index, with alerts. That is separate from the outdoor wind and rain sensors.
How many people have reviewed it on amazon.co.uk?
The listing shows 5.0 from 2 reviews. Both texts are positive. That is too small a sample to treat as a settled score.
The LIORQUE BJ8281 is a 7.5 inch VA console at £31.44 with 4.5 from 611 UK reviews. The listing claims a radio-controlled clock with a spring and autumn change, though it does not print the letters MSF, and some reviewers say the automatic time never locked. On the adapter the backlight can stay at high, medium, low, or off. On batteries the screen does not stay on, and the cells are not included. Up to three outdoor sensors are listed, with one in the box and a stated range of 100 m. Date format annoyed some buyers. Temperature accuracy is stated as ±1 °C, with a moon phase on the display. If the radio lock is the reason you are buying it, treat those reviewer complaints as the condition on an otherwise well reviewed large screen.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A room where a large VA screen and a stay-on adapter backlight matter more than a proven MSF lock.
Less suitable: A buyer for whom British Summer Time must arrive by radio without a manual fallback, or who needs wind and rain.
Specifications
Common questions
Does it show the time by radio?
The listing claims a radio-controlled clock with a spring and autumn change. It does not print the letters MSF. Some reviewers say the automatic time never locked.
Will the screen stay lit?
On the adapter, yes, at high, medium, low or off. On batteries the screen does not stay on. Batteries are not included.
Can I add sensors?
The listing says up to three outdoor sensors, with one in the box, and a stated range of 100 m.
The U UNNI is a 7.5 inch colour console at £32.99 with 4.4 from 1,079 UK reviews, the largest MSF sample in this set. The listing says MSF. One reviewer only got a lock after leaving the unit on overnight, and found that the up arrow can toggle the atomic clock off, so a wrong time can be a setting rather than a failed signal. The icons are a pressure trend, and the listing says to allow 7 to 10 days for them to settle. On the adapter the backlight can stay on at high, low, or off. On batteries it lights for about 10 seconds. Batteries are not included. Humidity accuracy is claimed at ±5%, with up to three sensors and 100 m stated. It does not measure wind or rain. A lead of about 1.2 m in one review is short if the socket is not beside the hall table.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A hall or kitchen that wants a large colour MSF console with a heavily reviewed UK listing.
Less suitable: A bedroom that needs a dark screen on mains, or a garden that needs measured rainfall and wind.
Specifications
Common questions
Does the clock use the UK time signal?
The listing says MSF. One reviewer only got a lock after leaving the unit on overnight, and found that the up arrow can toggle the atomic clock off.
How long does the backlight stay on?
On the adapter it can stay on, with high, low or off. On batteries it lights for about 10 seconds. Batteries are not included.
Does it measure wind or rain?
No. It shows temperature, humidity, pressure-based icons, moon phase and comfort or mould indexes. Wind cups are not in the listing.
The AIR6 is a 6.5 inch colour console at £99.99 with a solar outdoor array for temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind speed, and wind direction. It has 4.4 from 50 UK reviews, a thinner sample than the hallway consoles with a thousand reviews. There is no Wi-Fi and no app. The stated range is 100 m. A mains adapter is part of the indoor setup, and the listing says 2 AAA batteries are included. One reviewer was within about 0.5 °C of their Govee sensors, while the listing itself prints both about ±1 °C and 2 °C in different fields. Placement changes the result, and a review says there is no channel switch for extra thermo-hygro sensors. The support address in the listing is in Florida. The plug shape is not stated. Buy it if you will mount the array in the open.
Pros
Cons
Best for: An open garden where you will mount one wind-and-rain array and read it on a local console without an app.
Less suitable: A hallway that only needs temperature and an MSF clock, a greenhouse that needs a second sensor channel, or a buyer who wants UK-based support stated on the listing.
Specifications
Common questions
Does it need Wi-Fi?
No. The listing and reviewers describe a local radio link. There is no app in this listing.
What does the outdoor unit measure?
Temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind speed and direction, with wind chill and dew point on the console. It is one array, not three separate thermo-hygro sensors.
How accurate are the readings?
The listing states about ±1 °C and humidity ±5%, and also prints 2 °C in another field. One reviewer was within about 0.5 °C of their Govee sensors. Placement changes the result.
The Youshiko YC9441 is a colour console at £34.99 with an MSF clock for the UK and Ireland, including the spring and autumn change. It has 4.3 from 865 UK reviews. One sensor is in the box, with up to three channels and a stated range of 60 m, and extra sensors are listed as the Youshiko YC9312. A UK power supply is included, so the backlight does not depend on a plug shape you have to guess. The listing also asks for AA batteries, and the stated count conflicts between 2 AA and 4 AA, so check the copy you receive. Moon phase is on the display. There is no wind or rain. Reviewers praise the radio clock, though the manual is described as tiny. The 60 m figure is open air, and indoor metal can still block MSF even when the sensor link is fine.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A UK hall or kitchen where the clock must follow British Summer Time and the mains lead should be a stated UK supply.
Less suitable: A garden that needs wind and rain, or a buyer who wants a 100 m claim and a thick printed manual.
Specifications
Common questions
Is the clock radio-controlled for the UK?
Yes. The listing says MSF for the UK and Ireland, with an automatic change in spring and autumn, plus 12/24-hour time.
Can it take more than one outdoor sensor?
Yes, up to three. One sensor is included. Extra sensors are listed as Youshiko YC9312. The stated range is 60 m.
Are batteries included?
No. A UK power supply is included. The listing also asks for AA batteries, and the stated count conflicts between 2 AA and 4 AA.
The LIORQUE BJ8201-1 is the cheapest console in this set at £16.14, with 4.2 from 1,298 UK reviews. It is a 4 inch battery station, and the bullets say three AAA cells for the console and two for the outdoor sensor are in the box. A frost alert is listed, with a 100 m open-air claim and updates every 30 seconds. The listing states ±0.2 °C and ±3% relative humidity. Review titles also say it is not accurate, so the tighter figure stays a maker’s claim. The bullets say to avoid rain for a longer sensor life, and several reviewers say the outdoor unit is not waterproof and that the link can drop. The backlight lasts about 10 seconds. There is no Wi-Fi. If you can shelter the sensor, the included batteries are the practical advantage at this price.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A low budget where included batteries matter and the sensor can live under an overhang.
Less suitable: An exposed fence in the rain, a night-time backlight, or anyone treating ±0.2 °C as a lab result.
Specifications
Common questions
Are the batteries included?
Yes. The bullets say three AAA cells for the console and two for the outdoor sensor.
Is the outdoor sensor waterproof?
The bullets say to avoid rain for a longer sensor life. Several reviewers say the outdoor unit is not waterproof and that the link can drop.
How accurate is it?
The listing states ±0.2 °C and ±3% relative humidity. Review titles also say it is not accurate. Treat the tighter figure as the maker’s claim.
The Youshiko YC9442 is the sibling of the YC9441 at £32.99, with the same MSF clock for the UK and Ireland and the seasonal change. It has 4.2 from 208 UK reviews. The listing says there is no lunar display. An ice alert is in the title, with humidity and a barometric forecast that resets maximum and minimum at midnight. A UK power supply is in the box and batteries are not. Reviewers say the first MSF lock can take a while near a window, and that the screen dims on battery power and stays bright on the mains. If you need the display dark at night, that mains behaviour is the drawback. Up to three YC9312 sensors are supported at a stated 60 m. It does not measure wind or rain.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A hallway that wants MSF and a UK supply, and does not need a lunar display.
Less suitable: A bedroom that must stay dark while the console is plugged in, or a garden that needs rainfall and wind.
Specifications
Common questions
Is the clock radio-controlled?
Yes. The listing says MSF for the UK and Ireland, with the spring and autumn change. Reviewers say the first lock can take a while near a window.
Does it show the moon?
No. The listing says this model has no lunar display. It does list an ice alert in the title, humidity, and a barometric forecast.
Does the screen dim on mains?
Reviewers say it dims on battery power and stays bright on the mains supply. Batteries are not in the box. A UK power supply is.
The SQECH SWS-01 is a 7.4 inch colour console at £99.99 with a 7-in-1 outdoor array: anemometer, wind vane, rain gauge, temperature, and humidity. It has 4.2 from 77 UK reviews. A power adapter and an installation kit are included. AA and AAA cells are not, and a review says the solar panel supports the batteries rather than replacing them. The stated range is 100 m. MSF is not stated for the clock. Some reviewers say the manual they received was in French, German, and Spanish, while the screen is English. Thirteen alarms are claimed, and a moon phase is listed. The upper temperature on the listing is 50 °C. It does not upload to an app. The array still has to stand in the weather, and a sheltered patio will under-read the wind.
Pros
Cons
Best for: An open site where you want wind and rain on a large colour console and can supply the batteries yourself.
Less suitable: A windowsill or a tight terrace, a household that needs an English manual guaranteed in the listing, or an MSF hall clock at a third of the price.
Specifications
Common questions
Can it measure wind speed?
Yes. The outdoor unit includes an anemometer, a wind vane and a rain gauge, plus temperature and humidity.
Are batteries included?
No. AA and AAA cells are not in the box. A power adapter and an installation kit are included. The plug shape is not stated.
Is the manual in English?
Some reviewers say the manual they received was in French, German and Spanish, while the screen is English. Check the copy you receive.
The Raddy WF-50V is a 5 inch VA console at £19.99 with a 433 MHz outdoor sensor and a pressure-based 12–24 hour icon. Across 896 amazon.co.uk reviews it sits at 4.1, which is a large sample at this price. Indoor range is listed as −9.9 to 50 °C and outdoor as −40 to 70 °C, with humidity from 20% to 95% and a claimed 100 m link that updates every 30 seconds. You can run it from USB-C or from 2 AAA cells, which are not included. On batteries the backlight has three levels and is not a permanent full backlight. Reviewers say the clock is set by hand, and one unit gained about four seconds over three days. A manual clock is the limit if you wanted MSF, and one display-failure comment at about six months is a reason to keep the receipt rather than a rate you can calculate from a single review.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A hallway or kitchen where a 5 inch screen and USB-C matter, and you are willing to set British Summer Time yourself.
Less suitable: Anyone who needs an MSF clock, a backlight that stays on all night, or measured wind and rain.
Specifications
Common questions
Does it show humidity?
Yes. The listing gives humidity from 20% to 95%, indoors and outdoors, with daily maximum and minimum readings.
Does the clock set itself?
No. Reviewers say the time is set manually. One unit gained about four seconds over three days.
How is it powered?
USB-C or 2 AAA batteries, which are not included. On batteries the backlight has three levels and is not a permanent full backlight.
The Warmiehomy is a colour console at £21.99 with a 433 MHz outdoor sensor, a pressure history chart, and a 12–24 hour icon. It has 3.6 from 9 UK reviews, the weakest star line among the consoles that have one. Indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity are listed, with a comfort display. The clock has an alarm and a 5-minute snooze. MSF is not stated, so British Summer Time will not set itself. An AC adaptor is in the box and batteries are not. A review says the console can also use two AA cells and the sensor two AAA cells. The stated range is 100 m, with a note to keep the unit about 90 cm from metal. The plug shape is not stated. Nine reviews cannot tell you whether the 3.6 will hold, and the accuracy fields on the listing disagree between 1 °C and ±0.5 °C.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A trial of a cheap colour console with a mains adaptor, if you will set the clock yourself and treat nine reviews as a thin sample.
Less suitable: A buyer who wants MSF, a large UK review count, or wind and rain before spending even £22.
Specifications
Common questions
Does it show indoor humidity?
Yes. The listing includes indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity, a comfort display and a pressure history chart.
Is there a clock?
Yes, with an alarm and a 5-minute snooze. The listing does not say the clock uses the MSF signal.
What power does it use?
An AC adaptor is in the box. Batteries are not. A review says the console can also use two AA batteries and the sensor two AAA batteries. The plug shape is not stated.
The Baldr BD-910 is the smaller of the two Baldr panels in this set, at £22.22, with a 433 MHz outdoor sensor and a comfort icon. The listing includes humidity, a 12/24-hour clock, and a battery indicator for the station and the sensor. Connectivity is given as wireless 433 MHz, which is the sensor link rather than the MSF time signal, so the clock will not follow British Summer Time on its own. The box is described as a bracket, an external sensor, and the station, and batteries are not included. Accuracy is stated as ±1 °C, which matches the usual listing claim in this category and is not a laboratory result. There is no UK star line, so the lower price is not a reviewed bargain you can score. Wind and rain are absent, and a stated radio range is not given.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A buyer who wants a small Baldr thermo-hygrometer at about £22 and will set the time manually.
Less suitable: Shoppers who want a radio clock, a large reviewed sample, or a stated transmission range before they mount the sensor.
Specifications
Common questions
Does it show humidity and the time?
Yes. The listing includes humidity, a 12/24-hour clock, and a battery indicator for the station and the sensor.
Is there a radio-controlled clock?
Not in this listing. Connectivity is given as wireless 433 MHz, which is the sensor link, not the MSF time signal.
What is in the box?
The listing says a bracket, an external sensor and the weather station. Batteries are not included.
The Baldr YU-341UK is a battery console with one outdoor sensor in the description and a listing claim of up to three. At £37.99 it sits in the mid band, beside reviewed MSF consoles that cost less. The listing gives a 12–24 hour icon forecast, an alarm, and stored maximum and minimum readings, and it claims IP54 on the outdoor sensor. The clock is a manual 12/24-hour display, and MSF is not mentioned, so British Summer Time will not arrive by radio. Batteries are not in the box: 2 AAA for the console and 2 AA for the sensor. There is no UK star line in the listing, so you cannot weigh it against a console with hundreds of reviews. The stated 100 m range is an open-air figure, and the station has no wind, rain, or app.
Pros
Cons
Best for: A household that wants a battery thermo-hygrometer with a stated IP54 sensor and room for extra sensors, and that will set the clock by hand.
Less suitable: Anyone who needs MSF and British Summer Time to set themselves, a reviewed star line, or wind and rain.
Specifications
Common questions
Does it show humidity?
Yes. The listing says the console and the outdoor sensor measure temperature and humidity, and that the console stores maximum and minimum values.
Does the clock set itself to UK time?
The listing describes a 12/24-hour clock, alarm and snooze. It does not mention the MSF signal.
Are batteries included?
No. The console takes 2 AAA batteries and the sensor takes 2 AA batteries.
We shortlisted 12 weather stations from amazon.co.uk listings, including both Baldr models in this set. The page score weighs the job the station actually does, whether the clock claims the UK MSF signal, power and backlight, the outdoor link, and the size of the UK review sample. Listing accuracy figures were not checked in a laboratory, and an empty star line is not treated as a quality rank.
Job
25%A hall thermo-hygrometer, a wind-and-rain array and a Wi-Fi air-quality console answer different jobs. The score starts with whether the listing measures what you will actually use.
Clock
25%For UK civil time, including British Summer Time, the listing should say MSF. A manual clock, or a 433 MHz sensor link described as wireless, will not change the hour by itself.
Power and backlight
15%Battery screens usually light for seconds. A backlight that stays on needs a mains adapter, and that adapter should suit a UK 230 V socket. A stated UK supply scores above an unstated plug.
Outdoor link
15%A stated 60 m or 100 m is an open-air figure. Shade, walls and pairing beside the console matter more than the headline range.
Review evidence
20%A large amazon.co.uk review count outweighs an empty star line or a 5.0 from two ratings. The stars are the listing’s, not a lab score.
A Baldr weather station in the UK listings is a console plus a wireless outdoor sensor. The useful choice is the one that matches the job, the clock and the power lead, not the model with the longest feature list. The two Baldr ASINs have no UK star line, so the reviewed consoles beside them carry the evidence.
A weather station in this comparison is an indoor console that reads a wireless outdoor sensor. On the Baldr listings, and on most of the rivals, that means indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity, a clock, and a weather icon. It is not a Met Office feed. The icon is a local pressure trend for the next 12 to 24 hours. Some consoles ask you to wait 7 to 10 days before you treat the icons as settled. The set splits into three jobs. Thermo-hygrometer consoles cover the hall and the kitchen.

The 60 m and 100 m figures are open-air claims. Walls, foil insulation and metal frames cut the link. Pair the sensor beside the console, then move it outside.
A sensor in direct sun reads high. Put it on a north-facing wall, about 1.25 to 2 m up, under an overhang, and keep a rain-sensitive unit out of driving rain unless the listing says it is built for that.
The icons are a local pressure trend for about 12 to 24 hours. They are not a national forecast, and some listings ask you to wait 7 to 10 days before the trend settles.
UK civil time, including the spring and autumn change, comes from the MSF signal. The National Physical Laboratory runs that 60 kHz broadcast from Anthorn in Cumbria. In winter it carries UTC. During British Summer Time it carries UTC+1. If the listing prints MSF, the console is at least claiming that signal. The Youshiko YC9441, the Youshiko YC9442 and the U UNNI do so in this set.
Decide the job before the brand. A thermo-hygrometer shows indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity, a clock and a pressure icon. That is the hall product, from about £16 to about £38 here, including both Baldr consoles. A wind-and-rain array is a different object. The AIR6 and the SQECH SWS-01 put rainfall, wind speed and wind direction on one outdoor unit at about £99.99. A sheltered patio under-reads the wind. Placement is part of the job. Treat 60 m or 100 m as open air.
Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.
You want a large screen, indoor and outdoor temperature, and a clock that follows British Summer Time. The U UNNI states MSF and has 4.4 from 1,079 UK reviews at about £32.99. It does not measure wind or rain.
You will mount one outdoor array in the open and read wind and rain on a local console. The AIR6 does that without Wi-Fi, at about £99.99, on 4.4 from 50 UK reviews. A sheltered patio will under-read the wind.
You want temperature and humidity with batteries in the box and can keep the sensor under an overhang. The LIORQUE BJ8201-1 is about £16.14, with 4.2 from 1,298 UK reviews. Reviewers dispute waterproofing, and the backlight lasts about 10 seconds.
For a hall or kitchen that needs UK civil time, the U UNNI is the top pick: MSF is stated, and 1,079 UK reviews is the largest MSF sample here. If you want the lowest spend and can shelter the sensor, the LIORQUE BJ8201-1 is the best value at about £16.14, with batteries included. The two Baldr consoles stay in the table, but neither listing has a UK star line or an MSF claim. Wind and rain start at about £99.99, and the Temtop 5.0 from two reviews is too small a sample for that price.

LIORQUE BJ8201-1 weather station
Cheapest console in the set, at about £16.14, with 4.2 from 1,298 UK reviews and batteries included if the sensor stays out of the rain.
