    Good value ! bought on sale. Excellent reception ! Other brand plate type antennas perform similar, but cost more. TV picked up over 30 local channels. Must read the instructions and mount up high. Test first before mounting. Mounting pads are included along with a website to view location of local channels.

    Good picture picks up but if you leave the live channels to streaming channels and then switch back things get a little choppy temporarily. Overall though it did the job.

    Tried it on my main TV and I couldn't get the channels to scan. However, it works perfectly on another TV in the home. The picture is clear as if it was connected by cable, well worth the purchase. Would definitely buy again.

    This antenna has been the item I have been looking for forever. Recently dropped my carrier of many years and found my smart tv wasn’t quite smart enough to get local tv. I was the possibilities at Best Buy. And found this antenna said this looks like what i have looking for. Price is right for an experiment. I got it home plugged in where the satellite was and turned the tv on, oops forgot something (I didn’t take the time to read the instructions). Tv was still in satellite mode. Changed menu to search for local channels short wait bingo local channels on screen. Guess what? After using for a few weeks I’m noticing on rainy days not having so much pixelation like I did with the satellite. It may or may not be the same for you. Cheap Experiment.

    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.

    Does exactly what I need it to do, at a great price. The packaging is the antenna itself confused me a bit- I didn’t know, and still don’t to be honest, if I needed to peel the plastic off of the antenna. I did and it’s working fine but I was confused about it. Otherwise it’s solid.

    The antenna actually works pretty well, however one of the main reasons we got it was for some local News channels and 1 of them we could not get.
