Zero Channels Available
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.According to the website included with this device, the antenna should pick up quite a few channels. Unfortunately, this antenna was a waste of money because all I get is static. I only gave it two stars because it has a sleek design and it was easy to install.

Non Amplified HD Antenna
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this non amplified HD antenna hoping it would work. The signal in my metro area was not strong enough. So I exchanged it for the Amplified model which does work much better

Needs a little help
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed tin foil to help with the signal. Once I got a good 15in X 15in square of tin foil the signal worked.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Does not live up to its description
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very disappointed. I had thought this antenna with a 30 mile range would have no problem receiving my local Network TV Stations since I live less than 12 miles from the transmitting towers. However, for some reason, it does not pick up NBC & PBS at all! My advice? Buy one with better reception.

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really had high hopes for this because I love the style & look. However, the reception was horrible no matter where it was placed. Imagine watching something that skips and glitches more than a scratched CD.

Nothing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Did nothing tried on three TVs. Nothing happened. Maybe too far away but something should happen.

Posted .Hi MichaelSfromMichigan! I understand how frustrating it can be when you’ve tried everything and still encounter issues. Testing on three TVs without any results can indeed be disheartening. It’s possible that distance might play a role, but you’re right—something should happen. Given the circumstances, I recommend processing a return and exchange within the next 15 days. We’ll thoroughly investigate if there’s a defective item and ensure that you receive a working solution.

Looks nice but don't buy it!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Doesn't work very good unless you hold it in your hands and move to search for a signal. If I would have kept the packaging I would take it back.

Highly Directional
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definitely not multidirectional. Of the big 4 stations I only got 2. One disappeared so I turned antenna 90° and it came back. Typical as I have a $150 antenna that does the same.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDid not work as intended
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to receive local channels in addition to my Sling subscription. It didn't work even though I was well within the parameters of distance, etc.
