    Did not live up to expectations

    The price was reasonable but the performance was barely adequate, even in my attic. I was surprised that it didn't do quite as good with signal reception as a DIY project that I created when digital TV deployed locally. It may serve better if installed externally, but it's unlikely to pull in more distant signals. Will probably offer to coworkers at a discounted price.

      Hello from Antennas Direct! We are sorry to hear you did not have a great experience with our ClearStream 4MAX. Please call one of our experts before you return the product to the store. We have years of experience judging satellite overviews to estimate the signal blockage caused by obstructions such as trees, foliage, buildings etc... these obstructions will block signals and cause interference with other signals. Then we use information that you provide for your installation to finalize our recommendations on why you are not receiving more channels. You may simply need a booster to complete your setup. Please give us a call today at 877-825-5572 we are available 7 days a week to help. Thank you! antennasdirect

    I only get reception about half the time. So basically half the time this thing is great the other half of the time it isn't . But I can't honestly say that the antenna is the problem. It could be the installation or me not understanding how it works.

    We like many found the prices we were paying for cable TV to high for what we were getting. So we cut the cord and bought this antenna hoping to be able to get local channels. We are able to get local channels, but there are very few in this area. The ones we are able to reach come in with good clarity.

    I cant seem to get this to work well for me at my house but the device works because we tried it at my neighbors house and no issues. Geek squad isnt much help because they arent allowed to go on to peoples roofs.

    Nice antenna but I would recommend checking your local area for the channels you will receive over the air results will vary depending on your location

    Being compact helps where it doesn't get caught in the trees with the winds in close quarters

    I finally got sick and tired of paying outrageous amounts to Time Warner Cable (now Spectrum) and only watching a very tiny number of the channels. I cut the cut to cable and now watch a myriad of channels absolutely free over the air, including many in HD! I have never looked back!

    It works as good as the advertisement says it does. The size is compact enough for use indoors, in my apartment. I am saving $792 this year from cable company, I disconnected cable. This antenna paid for itself in the first 3 months.

    Works pretty well. I had to be pretty precise as to where to point it in order to get all of the local stations. I'm about 25 miles from the broadcasting antennas.

    This is the second antenna type I have used. First one would not maintain consistent channel strength. I would often "lose" a channel. This antenna is a lot more consistent. I am very satisfied with its performance. I use it with a Tablo.

    I mounted this antenna in my attic to avoid looking bad on the house and having to ground it. I am getting 50 channels from inside my garage. Very easy to assemble, although one of the screw holes was messed up and I had to force it in. I highly recommend.

    Nice antenna. I does well at longer distances (about 30 miles) all local stations come in, but some are weak that worked well with the old antenna. It's a nice antenna, but it doesn't perform miracles.

    This antenna was easy to assemble. It provides both VHF and UHF digital signal reception. I am pulling in TV stations from 60 miles without a problem using an RCA signal amplifier for a couple of the stations for extra margin.
