    Excellent reception. In the past, when on antenna, pixels would jumble at the slightest breeze in the trees. This is as clear as cable tv. Sometimes I think we’re streaming, when we’re over the air!

    This antenna does the job well, in a world of so many streaming apps I refuse to pay for cable and I really only watch local stations for news and such. So the antenna works perfectly for me.

    Does the job I need it to do. Didn't stick well on my wall but I made it work. I think it's more on my location, but I did struggle early on to find the sweet spot to get the channels I was wanting. I would buy again.

    East setup. Sleek design. But channels come in scrambled. We have it placed at the top of our 10 foot ceilings. Bad signal Probably due to trees in our backyard. If you have no obstruction might work better

    Pretty good for being inexpensive. I just use it in my office for occasional use. Works as expected for about $100. I would want one bigger and sharper for main viewing.

    Seems to work OK across town (7 miles, maybe) from the TV antenna farms. Curiously, there is what looks to be a plastic backing that one might thing would peel away, but it didn't seem to want to come off. The included 3M stick blocks work well.
