    This item works great! You have to move it closer to a window for better reception. Sometimes must move antenna around ti pic up other channels. I do not like how antenna bens and stays bent, however it does work.

    I am glad I purchased for the local stations in my area but the only problem I have is keeping it up on the wall because the adhesive strips does not support the pad, so I had to purchase some commando pads. Overall it's a good product to purchase but need a good quality adhesive.

    I didn't expect much from this antenna since I have always had poor success with OTA reception. However, I was pleased that I was able to get two major national networks so that I can watch some live sports. This required hanging the antenna on the porch window, however and so I needed another piece of coax and a coupler because the included 10 foot cable wasn't long enough. I am pleased with the result considering how inexpensive it is. The promo offers are a nice bonus. 30 days of free fubo will allow me plenty of sports viewing between now and the Super Bowl. Three free months of AppleTV+ is also nice, although Apple makes redeeming the offer a pita, no fault of Best Buy.

    I connected this to my insignia tv. It was easy to program the tv, to get the over the airwaves channels. I still have a problem getting channel 6, same as the old antenna. I’ve placed it as close to the window my cats will allow without messing with it.

    Excellent value. Gets me reasonable reception for all of my local channels and then some. Only downside is that I live in a pretty densely populated area and I still get some drop out for my local NBC channel.

    This works surprisingly well! I've tried three others in the past and was skeptical, but to my delight, this one works! Chanels come in perfectly with little adjustment of position.

    Just bought this flat tv antenna today hooked it up and immediately I got the extra channels that are broadcast in my area where I live at. But before I bought this one I had bought two other antennas and they did work well but I had to keep moving them and rescan the channels. The flat antenna I put in one place and it keeps the channels glad I bought this one.

    The best of all Antennas... One side is white, the other is black. Remember to scan every month so that new channels are added or picks up signals. My first purchase was on 12/22 and I am buying the 3rd one today. I LOVE IT!!!!

    The only time I really watch cable is during football season. I think this thing works great I got rid of my cable and now I have this. It rests behind my TV and on Sundays and Mondays I just bring it out put it in the window and enjoy my football games in beautiful high def. This picture is 100% on par with high definition cable television. It looks great on my 4K OLED

    This is the fourth digital HDTV antenna we have purchased over the past several years and this one is by far, the best one we have. We have it in a second floor bedroom in a large city and get dozens of channels, crystal clear and for no cost other than the antenna.

    I needed an antenna, but my TV was not close to window. When i saw this antenna foe les that $20 I was skeptical but I took my chance since i dint qant to spend a lot if it wasnt going to work. To my surprise, it was perfect. I used to have a nice roof sntenna at my old place and this one is just as good. Clear signal and it is not even close to a window
