Internal Antenna
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This purchase was so good I bought a total of 3 of them as I cut my cable off. I live 40 miles north of Denver and I was able to get 71 clear channels. I was shocked. It is not expensive either.

Posted .Hi PaulG,
Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that the Best Buy essentials™ Indoor HDTV Antenna exceeded your expectations. Getting 71 clear channels from 40 miles out is seriously impressive.

Picked up stations 15 miles away
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This worked great for picking up stations 15 miles away and was easy to install. I'm sure 15 miles isn't the limit, that's just how far away the local stations are from my home.

THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE BETTER THAN RABBIT EARS?
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.HAD PURCHASED AN HDTV ANTENNA WHEN THEY FIRST TRANSITIONED AND RETURNED IT. NEW NEIGHBORHOOD AND WANTED "LIVE" CHANNELS AND BOUGHT THIS. HD RECEPTION ALL DEPENDS ON WHERE YOU LIVE. I ONLY GET 1 SOLID GOOD CHANNEL AND A FEW THAT ARE AVERAGE. FOR THE PRICE, I GUESS IT'S WORTH IT TO HAVE 1 MAJOR CHANNEL AVAILABLE.

Better than I was expecting.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pleasantly surprised by this antenna. Easy to set up and I get more channels than expected. I do have to adjust it from time to time so attaching to the wall is not an option.

Works Great With A Little Work
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This works but you have to mount it high near a window. You also have to have open skies around your home. If there are wood your channel sections are limited. With this antenna revive 30 or more channels. Unfortunately our local channel NBC 12 comes and goes.

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We’re getting all the channels all the time! We don’t spend evening trying to figure out which channel will come in, we won’t miss episodes anymore. And it’s not in the way.

Nice & Simple
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like it. It's easy to set up and it's nice getting some basic channels for $20 down, no monthly bills. Just make sure you set it up high and as close towards the direction of a TV studio/satellite as possible.

80%
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It still pixelate a lot and loses signal. I’d say it works about 80% of the time for the price. It’s a good deal.

Surprisingly good reception!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm looking to "cut the cord," but still want the local channels. I found an article suggesting this item as the "top antenna value," and thought that for $20, I could give it a try. I connected it to my TCL TV, in about 3 minutes, and was pretty darn impressed! I have it near a wall, in a second floor room, and it provides a clear picture for 40+ channels in my area. It was a pleasant surprise, for sure!

71 CHANNELS FOR THE GUEST BEDROOM
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works! I bought it for the guest room where there is no cable outlet. It probably took me over an hour to rescan the channels and find a good spot where to stick the antenna. I decided right next to the window was the best spot. I got at the most 71 channels - not all were English channels, but getting this much is not bad at all. We live in the north suburbs of Houston.

So far, so good.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far the antenna is bringing in about 34 stations. We mostly watch hulu, Netflix or Prime so, the over the air channels are suffecient. We did add a coax extension for more position options.
