    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 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.

    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.

    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.

    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!!!!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    Good Antenna For The Price

    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.

    This antenna works well, and at approximately $20 is a fantastic value. We set the antenna behind the TV, plugged it into the antenna input, scanned for channels and started watching our local news. It works for all our local channels, although we only watch four of them, and this is a great way to get local broadcasts without paying for cable. We live 10 to 20 miles from our local channels' towers.
