    Picks up 47 over the air channels. Not even positioned by a window. Just sitting on the TV stand next to TV aimed at exterior wall. My only complaint is that the cord is way to short. The cord is only 5 feet long and my TV is not even close to 5 feet from a window. But other than that, it works exactly as it is supposed to.

    Easy to use and great reception. Salesperson warned me that you need to be within 30 miles of towers. I'm in Milan and get all local channels no problem.

    For the price the quality of the picture is great. The set up was super easy and overall I would recommend this product. The biggest con is the cable is intrinsically connected to the satellite and does not seem to be of great quality nor replaceable. Additionally, the cable is torqued and I was not able to completely u untwist it so that the satellite sits flush on the wall. A few wire anchors would do the trick but that’s also more holes and problems to deal with.

    This is working very well for me and helped me cut my cable bill! It is well built and lightweight, and I was able to hang it on the wall behind my TV and still get good digital signal.

    I recently purchased the Best Buy essential HDTV 30-mile range antenna. Overall, for the price and sleek look of the product, it was a fair buy. The step-up is easy and without issues. Although I was able to initially scan and locate channels, the signal was inconsistent. It took a lot of time and effort to receive a stable reception. I decided to keep the antenna for now, but I would purchase one with a greater range for a larger space in the future.

    This HDTV works well with my Insignia TV. It provides a clear, crisp picture. I plugged the antenna in to the TV and was able to watch TV in a few minutes. With the antenna I am able to receive about 20 channels or more. I am satisfied with my purchase.

    Recently “cut the cord” but not all of them! I was paying around $100 for Cable TV - I didn’t even know how easy it was to hook this thing up and watch TV iver air. My situation is ideal though, as I am only nine miles away from broadcast towers. I had one Vikings game that had bad reception - I think it made them lose. Other than one day it has been awesome. I’ve had it for over a month I believe.

    I was very hesitant about this antenna When I got it home and plugged it in, I was amazed. It’s simple looking, about the size of an iPad easy set up and amazing picture. Who knew? I was so pleased with it that I went and bought a second one, called Comcast and canceled my subscription. A $40 investment and save myself $900.00 plus a year. That’s more than a round-trip from Denver to Hawaii. What a deal thank your Best Buy.
