This is probably the best indoor antenna I've found, and I've tried several different ones. It's a bit spendy, but worth the cost. Compared to the older ClearStream 2V, the 2MAX is less directional, which gives you more flexibility in how you position it. It also comes with an indoor stand, whereas the 2V does not. I wish the stand is a little bit bigger and more stable, that's a minor nitpick. I'm using it with a Tivo Roamio OTA and getting great results.

Seems to work pretty well. We are picking up stations from over 40 miles away with good signal strength. 4 stars because it was a little more difficult to mount than an earlier antenna we had, and a bit more expensive.

Good antenna, pulls in 4 bars for most tv stations. My old antenna only pulled 2-3 bars on most and 4 bars on a few.

We could not get some over the air channels to come in on our expensive large TV. All the other antennas we tried left us with no signal or just a bunch of blocks shooting across the screen. This antenna fits outside and gets the reception that we need.

Bought this to replace current antenna. Works much better. During a heavy rain storm the signal was affected somewhat. Other than that works great.

Was easy enough to install. Getting signals indoors so I didn’t bother with outdoor option. Live in SF and getting Abq TV stations sprinkled in among lots of money grubbing fanatics on other stations I’ve never heard of. Picture is good.

I get 64 Channels! Some of them are just test patterns but hey I don't care. I get ABC, NBC, FOX and WGN (from Chicago) I don't get CBS for some reason. Satisfied with this purchase. My cable contract is up in a few weeks and I will say bye bye to cable. This antenna will pay for itself in a month and a half. The antenna couldn't be easier to set up. Remember to scan for channels with your TV.

This antenna was easy to assemble right out of the box. Hooked it up to my smart t.v. and hit program and instantly got about 40 some channels. I am going to try splitting the signal and sending to 3 t.v.'s. Time to cut the cable.

We gave up the expensive cable some time ago and tried another antennea that had a lot of interference. We purchased this one and it is fabulous we set it on the window seal and it only gets offended when the cats befriend it. Thank you so much.

Very easy to install - I attached it to a vent stack using 2” conduit straps. It picks up about 80 channel signals and most importantly the channels I want. I still have the occasional pixelation, but nothing that ruins the viewing. I give it 5 stars because I am surrounded by trees realize it is not in the best location (not sure any antenna would do much better). I have it connected to a distribution amplifier and feed five TVs with some runs over 50 feet.

I wanted to cut the cable so I purchased this antenna to see how many channels I get. I installed it in my attic to keep it out of sight. I was pleasantly surprised to get so many channels in my area. The local channels are just as good as cable!

I needed to get TV stations into my seasonal rental house, and didn't want to pay for satellite. I put this antenna on the same base as the DirecTV receiver, and pointed it toward the towers that serve my area. Used the same wiring as the satellite used, attached the coax cable to the TVs and have all broadcast channels coming thru strong, without having to turn the antenna. So simple. I had to buy a converter box from Best Buy for the second TV since it didn't have a coax connection like the other one.

This antenna works great! We are about 24 miles from the local TV station's broadcast antenna farm. It worked ok in the house, but once we put it up in the attic of our 2 story house, we got great reception. We currently have 3 TVs hooked up to it with no signal loss. Definitely worth the money.

We dropped our cable provider as we only watched football and a few other programs. The Clearstream pulls in a nice picture for the 3 major networks and Fox—Roku provides the rest. A great, economical solution for people who like select programming.

I bought this to replace an antenna and powered signal booster. I didn't get any additional channels (still get about 45 channels over the air, which is great) however, now the picture is clearer and never freezes up. Highly recommend this antenna.

I put this antenna on an upstairs TV. I not only get great reception on the main free channels (not 6 at the moment for some reason), I also get channels such as COZI and DECADES amongst numerous others, and I don’t need an amplifier. LOVE IT.

Had crummy reception before but not after this purchase. Can’t believe I am now getting forty over the air channels. Installer said it varies depending on what part of town you live in, but I am pleased as punch. Picture crystal clear. Antenna has high tech look. I just set it on an end table by the window and partly camouflaged it with an adjacent plant. Amazing how I got twenty more channels by moving it a few feet closer to the window.
