    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.

      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.

      It’s great to know you picked up three of them after cutting off your cable service—sounds like you’re making the most of your setup. We’re glad we could help make the transition from cable smooth and affordable. -Ed | Best Buy Essentials Support | https://www.bestbuy.com/site/brands/best-buy-brands/pcmcat1596746025285.c?id=pcmcat1596746025285 BBY-ExBrand_Best_Buy_essentials

    I was doubtful this antenna would work for us but at $20 it seemed worth the gamble. Previously we had a $120 rooftop aerial that provided inconsistent reception and finally, thankfully, blew off during a heavy storm. This wafer-thin antenna, positioned near the ceiling at the correct angle, is definitely superior.

    so lightweight! i would NOT recommend using the enclosed stickers to mount the antenna, use stickers that can peel off without damaging walls or antenna. mounting antenna not necessary to work. can "display" antenna using black or white side to complement decor! wire is long enough to use in one room, however i would need an extension to use in another room where i have to move the antenna around to find a signal especially in high wind/stormy days when signal is lost.

    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.

    I am probably in an area with strong TV transmission - I am receiving more than 100 stations with this antenna! Reception is crystal clear - too bad that most of the channels are crap! Very easy to install, try it and return if it does not work for you.

    This was thin and stylish, and the cord was long enough to put anywhere. Sadly, it didn't pick up the signal I wanted it to, despite my living in the city. Then again, I live in a newly renovated apartment with well insulated walls, so I am not going to put the blame completely on this antenna.

    It is a good antenna. I have it in the main level and I am able to scan and get 38 channels. I have another antenna upstairs (made by different company) and it pulls 70 channels and in good reception. So it must be positioning. I will test it upstairs to see do i get same number of channels. Otherwise, I am getting all the local channels in HD reception.

    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.
