    Great little HD over air antenna at an amazing price. Unless you are in an extremely rural area this will do the trick. I get 35 digital channels with it. If in a rural area where TV signal is weak you may need other options but of course those are going to be far more expensive than this. I'd recommend purchasing and trying before going with more expensive antennas and if it doesn't work for you you can always return it.

    Relative needed a new antenna to go along with their new tv for whenever they watch OTA channels. Works great but definitely needed to adjust every now and then. Overall, good quality and reception.

    I had a customer move in to their new home and they hadn’t ordered tv or internet service yet. I hooked this to one tv so they would have something to watch over the weekend. It worked pretty well receiving most local channels .

    This antena is affordable, has a sleek look, and best of all it works! I have next to a window just to make sure it gets enough signal. The only complain is the stickys that are supposed to keep it stuck to the wall don't hold it, I had to use 2 large command strips to keep it from falling. Overall if you live a small city this is antena for you.

    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!

    Works like a charm! I hardly ever watch TV and the minimal streaming services I used did not offer local channels. All I wanted to do was watch the local news and weather but not for an astronomical price! Problem solved!

    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.
