Very happy with this product. Wanted to cut the cord but the wife wouldn’t go for it unless she could get the local stations and I didn’t want to pay for them on a service. Tried the Mohu antenna, couldn’t get a thing in my house. Bought this and I’m able to get between 25-30 stations depending on the TV. I’m able to pick up stations from 70+ miles away, in central NY we have a lot of hills. Haven’t had reception this good since before the digital change over.

Not all antennas are compatible with Sling AirTv. I purchased a GE yagi 70 mile plus which turned out not to be compatible with the AirTv. It would not complete the set up process. If i connected the GE antenna directly to the tv it worked excellent so not to take away from the GE antenna it was just not compatible with the AirTv so i switched to this antenna direct clearstream antenna and I was able to finsh the set up process on the AirTv 2. I contacted sling and it was confirmed that not all antennas are compatible so i requested that thy update their info on their product. The Clearstream gave me 171 channels in the 90031 area code in Los Angeles. I recommend this antenna.

This antenna works fine we decided not to use it and tried to take it back but it was past 15 days so store manager Adam in Salem told us if we buy the membership we could return it but we had to put a credit card that would auto renew for $50 every year we told him we did not want to have an auto renew account and he pushed our stuff across the counter and Rudley said I can't help you and walked away. This is the worst customer service I have ever had and I will never shop at Best buy again and tell everybody I know not to shop at Best buy sorry

Not much to it. Easy to assemble. I mounted it to the side of the building so its turned 90 degrees compare o a roof mount. We get over 23 channels from 15 miles to the north and 4 channels 45 miles to the south. Would recommend.

I love it!! I wish I had bought it long time ago and could I had saved a lot of money on paying a very expensive cable bill. It was very easy to set up, I live in an apartment building I simply put it on my window and I am getting the best reception ever! Crisp clear, the clearest sound and most importantly NO MORE BUFFERING!!

They always want you to rate something as soon as the box is opened. Well, now that I’ve used it for a few days I can at least say that it works well so far. What’s strange to me is that because I’m closer to Mt. Diablo I orientated the antenna in that direction. But, I actually receive the Sacramento stations quite well. I made a mast out of ridged conduits to get the antenna higher so, I can’t really comment on anything other than the antenna itself. The only hardware I used was the clamp for attaching the antenna to the mast. Everything else is still in the box. Anyway I get a variety of stations which was all that I wanted. The instructions provided very little help with respect to making the antenna work with the TV so, you’re on your own for that. I was ready to start asking people at Best, where I bought my TV, but then I figured it out. They could have been a little more informative here.

Got tired of constantly moving my indoor leaf antenna and got the ClearStream for my attic. All channels now come in clear with no pixelation. I'm about 40-50 miles away from Indy, so the terrain is flat, but lots of buildings in the way. Very pleased with this product.

Install was easy and works as advertised with just a little aiming adjustment. Very happy with this purchase. The item was installed in my attic and my roof decking has foil backing. Antenna still worked perfectly.

We knew we were going to have a limited off-the-air stream. It appeared the ClearStream 4MAX was going to be our best option. It is! It was extremely easy to install; it had to be an outside install because we live in a brick house. We now receive the channels that we expected with a clarity we did not expect.
We've recommended it to our neighbors and they have had the same positive expectations.

Antenna works great. I checked on antennaweb.org for available channels at my address and it showed none available unless it was over 30 feet high. I also have several trees in direction of stations. I wanted to mount it in the attic. Best Buy has a 15 days return period so i thought I'd give it a chance. I mounted in attic and get all the networks and 16 channels. Thinking of canceling Dish.

Great antenna to get rid of cable or satellite

If you want to cut the cord from cable or satellite this antenna works great! I wish I had done it sooner. I get 45 channels, and live about 11 miles from most of the towers. Just attached it to the satellite base on my roof once the dish was removed, super easy to install and used existing cable line that the satellite used (only needed to change out the splitter, satellite company one does not work for antenna).

Easy to assemble. Live outside of the advertised range but with a preamp can pick up most of the Chicago stations from 83 miles away. It is mounted outside about 20 feet up on a mast. Also is directional so download the antennas direct app to position it. Overall satisfied with it. The older model had a reflector on the back, I think this one would benefit from it also.

We cut the cable and switched over to antenna and streaming. Replaced the existing cheap antenna that came with the house that only received about 20 channels. Installed this in about 30 minutes and now we have 80 channels that all come in clear. I am so glad we purchased this as we get to watch all the shows on network channels and all the digital channels as well. So much more to watch now.

This antenna did not work well with my location or other electronic equipment. However, it was very easy to assemble, easy to use, and clearly high quality. It found about 37 channels. If I was in a better location and received a better signal on some channels, I would have gladly kept and used the antenna.

This antenna is lightweight but sturdy and easy to use. Right now we have it in the house, but we will mount it to the roof as soon as the weather permits. It picks up about 30 channels now. I am sure as soon as it is mounted on the roof, we will get more channels.
