Banjo barometers have been around since the mid 1800s, and are still the most popular design. The central dial shows the barometric pressure information, the top part is a temperature scale, and the bottom is a humidity dial. This TFA Dostmann barometer is German-made, and is of a beautiful quality.
This barometer is shipped from us in safe transportation mode, and will arrive to you unset. This is so that the needle does not move in transit, and therefore become damaged. On arrival, the barometer needs to be manually set to your local air pressure, which you can find online from various resources. This process is very simple, and can is done by simply turning a screw on the back to make the needle move to the required position. Once the barometer is set, it is ready for use.
Increasing pressure indicates good weather, with the chance of it being a little cold.
Decreasing pressure indicates that the weather is set to worsen - storms and winds are highly likely. Quick drops in pressure signify that a storm is imminent in the next several hours.

Great purchase, other half suffers from back pain which varies with air pressure so bought to give some advanced warning, also looks good in the hall so very satisfied.
Very smart and works too! Well worth the money.
I am very pleased with this barometer. I bought it as a 50th birthday present for my son and think he'll love it. However, I cannot comment on it actually working as I haven't given it to him yet and it needs to be 'set' to the local altitude. Weather Shop were excellent to deal with and very helpful.
I bought this as a 50th birthday present for my daughter. She really loved it it was very easy to set up and looks great
Both seller and consumer heavily let down by Parcelforce. 24 hours special delivery (in time for Father's Day) turned into almost two weeks of chasing and misinformation - barometer finally arrived inexplicably opened and irretrievably smashed. Disappointing all round but refund provided.
Excellent product. Quick efficient delivery. Well packaged with clear user instructions. Highly recommended. Would use this company again.
