Looks great in the box
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This antenna looks really functional, but did not assemble correctly. I was able to bring in two out of over 20 channels broadcasting in our area. Research before you buy... wish i had done better.

Works alright
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced an older, cheaper antenna with the ClearStream 4Max and ended up with less channels than before and the picture on the ones that I still have was no better than before.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the second unit I that I bought. This one is for my daughter in S.C. She had purchased one that she had in her window. This one provided 2x the signal strength! Very pleased with this unit.
I would recommend this to a friend70 mile antenna
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Couldn't get any meaningful channels and I am only 35 miles from Tampa. Don't know how good it would be for others. I suppose it depends on location.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We don't get as many channels as it said it would. We are suppose to get a reach of 170 radius. ?????????????????????????????? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from Antennas Direct Expert
Posted .The ClearStream 4MAX does not reach 170 miles, it is 70 miles. Sometimes, you have to move the antenna to different locations in the home to find the area where the signal is best. If you placed the antenna on the roof, we suggest using our free app on your smartphone, so you can see where the towers are located. Aim the antenna in that general direction and then scan the TV for channels. If you move the antenna, or if you had an antenna and then installed the 4MAX, then you must always scan the TV for channels. If you need assistance, please call our tech support team and they'll help you get the channels on your TV. We are available 7 days a week at 877-825-5572.

||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works just ok... it is not worth the $. I had bought several others before this one and I get several channels but it is very sensitive even on clear das.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot quite as good as expected
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I live 35 miles outside of Louisville, which is well within the range advertised. The antenna is mounted in my attic. Still cannot get all Louisville channels.

Posted .We are sorry to hear you are not receiving the channels in your area. There must be an obstruction between your home and the tower. Have you tried moving the antenna to another location in the attic? You will need to rescan the TV for channels when you move the antenna. If this doesn't solve your issue, please call us so that we can perform a signal evaluation on your exact location to determine was is causing the interference with the signals. Technical Support can be reached via email to [email protected] or chat @ antennasdirect.com/customer-service.html, or you can call us at 877-825-5572. We are open 7 days a week to help you!
Great antenna!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Antenna would not work on my older tv and I contacted the antenna company and they said I would need to get a new tv. So I won’t know how it works until I get a different tv.

Posted .You can also purchase a Converter Box instead of investing in a new TV. There are several models at Best Buy under $45. Here is a link to one https://www.bestbuy.com/site/aluratek-digital-tv-converter-box-with-digital-video-recorder-black/6301665.p?skuId=6301665. You would then attach the coax cable from the 4MAX antenna to the converter box. Download our free app Antenna Point, so you can aim the antenna towards the largest cluster of towers in your area, perform a channel scan, and voila, you'll receive FREE channels.

I would recommend this to a friendPoor reception
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This one did not pickup as well as the other we have purchased from bb . Maybe if we had gone higher but followed guidelines and other one we picked up more channels
I would recommend this to a friendGood be better...
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price and the range it’s suppose to go to, one of our channels still goes out not getting good reception. We even have the antenna on the roof.
I would recommend this to a friendOk but not good enough
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First no stand to use on counter Second while it did pick up a few more channels than a couple year old Moku Leaf it didn’t seem to have the distance advertised

No, I would not recommend this to a friendMore equipment needed
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was told it needs an amplifier to perform better. The cheap antenna bar from Walmart works better than this without it.
