It’s no secret that we’re big fans of Davis weather stations. They might not be the fanciest home weather stations, but they have a proven record of reliability that few other companies can match. Their stations last for decades and have measured the highest wind speed recorded by a personal weather station, 199mph!
Davis Instruments currently sells two weather stations: a cheaper model called the Vantage Vue, and a pro-grade model, the Vantage Pro2. Each model has advantages and disadvantages, which we’ll explain in our Davis weather station comparison. We’ll also compare specifications, discuss the WeatherLink Console, and touch on AirLink, which adds air quality measurements to your weather station setup.

Davis Vantage Vue vs Vantage Pro2: Our Verdict
Either Davis weather station is a great choice, but the Davis Vantage Pro2 is a solid station overall if you can afford it. With best-in-class accuracy and a track record of proven reliability, it’s one of the best weather stations available. The introduction of the WeatherLink Console makes it even better. But it’s very, very expensive.
We’ve owned a Vantage Vue since 2016 and love it. We’ve had no major mechanical problems with our station, and the accuracy is outstanding as long as you properly maintain it. And we’ve also purchased AirLink and are happy with its performance. But our next station is a Vantage Pro2, for sure.
