||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this thinking I could save alot of money and not get cable. I can say that the antenna is terrible. You can't even walk by or move and what were watching would flutter. I would definitely recommend not buying this!
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Antennas Direct Expert
Posted .Greetings! We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. With the ClearStream 2MAX, most people tend to place the antenna on the floor. The towers are 1500 feet up in the air, so the higher you can get your antenna the better. Also, you always need to rescan the TV for channels each time the antenna gets moved. This could take a few attempts. If this doesn’t work for you, please contact our support and we can either pinpoint what the problem may be or give a recommendation for the right antenna for your location. They will also have tips on ways to mount the antenna to help reduce your flutter. They’ll need a little more information from you to perform a free signal analysis. We are available 7 days a week to help at 1-877-825-5572 or chat with us at antennasdirect.com.

Piece of Junk.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I could I would give this zero stars. I had an old UHF/VHF/FM antenna. You know one of those ones that took up half the roof. It was mounted on the chimney. I picked up the a fairly good amount of channels with it as far as my local stations but sometimes at night they would go out. The wife got tired of it and had me remove the old antenna and put up this one. Well we have now lost 2 local stations and are down to pretty much 1 station which now cuts out at night. I have the antenna on a pole that is almost as high as the old antenna and am able to rotate it but it does not good. Waste of time and money. Was better off with the old antenna.

Charger
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Antenna came in box and no cord inside for hook up - even for indoors. Now do not know which cord to get - which makes this item Not So Much Of A Deal & extra trouble having to go back to store - which I have no time to do.

Better than I expected
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needless to say, you have to do your homework before purchasing an antenna for your area. It's worth every second to take the time and call Antennas Direct for a recommendation. They will map your area directly from your home address and then make a recommendation that will fit your requirements. I mounted the antenna on my house roof about 20 feet from the ground and directed the antenna according to the map, directly south. I am receiving 56 channels with exceptional resolution. I was also worried about the trees surrounding my house which turned out to be a non problem. Very happy to rid myself of the monthly cable bill. I have free cable and low cost streaming of good movies.
I would recommend this to a friend Waste of money
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The antenna was installed by the Geek Squad in my attic. I live within 5 miles to all the network towers. The topography is flat with no trees. I still get a lot of static and interference even on a clear day. I can’t recommend this product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendFair for limited reception.

Clearstream 2 Max antenna review
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A bit disappointed. Couldn’t get the local channel we we were hoping to pull in with this antenna. Maybe if we had less trees in our yard it may have worked better. But it was worth a try. Able to return for full refund.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendTERRIBLE ANTENNA
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really bad reception even though I live in a major metropolitan area. Would return, but I waited too long. And that's another problem: every other seller give at least 30 days to return items, not the 14 days provided by this company.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDidn't work
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Did not pull in channels as advertised. Very disappointed.

We also have an app you can download to your smartphone or tablet, to help you aim the antenna in the direction of the largest cluster of broadcast towers. The app is free an is called Antenna Point.
