    Great antenna and the price rocks. This antenna found more digital channels in my area then the more expensive brands out there. Others found between 30-50. This one found 125. So clear ans Great sound also.

    Great inexpensive way to get digital broadcast TV. We got rid of YouTube TV and wanted the network channels. Works great in the room but takes some time to find the best reception.

    Needed an antenna that i could hide behind my television but still had great reception and so far this has worked great. This is being used inside a concrete block home with filled walls and is about 10-12 feet from the nearest window and is working great.

    Good antenna for the price. This is my second antenna. Bought one years ago for my guess room. Wanted one for my bedroom. You have to work with it to get it just right, but great picture once you have it adjusted.

    Amazing that after some trials on positioning of the antenna I can get live local channels in HD for free! This is amazing, because it’s the local live channels that drives the price up for HULU, YouTube, etc. With the antenna, NBC, CBS and PBS come in dependably, but FOX and ABC not so much. For around $20 this is one of the least expensive antenna on the market and well worth the price. Four stars because the unit is fragile and the surface flakes easily. I recommend this unit as the true cable cutter for local TV broadcasts.

    TV required external antenna (cable not desired; over-the-air only). This one worked fine for me: suburban bedroom with drywall, 3 miles from urban transmitters. Also got plenty of channels from 20 miles away. Black on one side, white on the other. Needs wall to hang it on.

    The best antena. I now get channels I wasn’t able to before with more expensive antennas. I places this bad boy 7 ft up an internal wall and it works beautifully. This comes with 3M foam stickers to attach it to your wall so no need to tape or nail it up.

    I use this antenna on an extra tv in the bedroom. It receives 35 channels over the air. Color and quality of picture is very good. Antenna is set behind tv as cable is not quite long enough to move to a window due to placement of tv. This does not hurt reception. Very satisfied with pictures and quality.

    We are in an area where the cable goes out often. I wanted an antenna as a back-up. This fits the bill: inexpensive, decent cable that is long enough. I have the antenna hanging off one of the shutter louvers behind the TV, so out of sight and easy to move. The reception is quite good. Overall very pleased.

    This economical antenna is amazing. This is a non powered type. Hooked up easily with a single 10 foot coaxial cable that is attached to the antenna. Used this on a digital smart television to receive over- the-air reception. Receives approximately 25 to 30 channels.

    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.

      Thank you, Kathy, for sharing your experience with the indoor antenna. It’s great to hear one worked well near a window, though we understand the disappointment with the second one. Your feedback helps us better understand how placement can affect performance. Tine | Best Buy Essentials Support BBY-ExBrand_Best_Buy_essentials
