    Works pretty well, with a modern and sleek fashionable look. The included tape is the only drawback. I recommend using standard Command strips all over the back side.

    I had the impression I'd be able to get free access to regular channels using this product. But I was only led to the same original channels, after using it. I'm assuming because of where I live only certain channels I can access.

    This antenna is terrible. I live in the heart of LA, close enough to hear game-day cheers from the stadium, yet I still can’t get a clear or reliable signal to watch USC football, Lakers, or Dodgers games. It’s practically useless for live sports, which is incredibly frustrating. This product is a joke—save yourself the hassle and invest in something better.

    I bought the Best Buy Essentials Thin Indoor HDTV Antenna to pick up over-the-air channels after cutting the cord, and it’s been a reliable solution. Setup took only a couple of minutes — just plug it in, stick it to the wall, and run a channel scan. The antenna pulls in my local broadcast stations clearly, including the major networks I needed for live sports. Picture quality is sharp, and I haven’t had any signal drops during games. It’s lightweight, low-profile, and easy to place without being noticeable in the room. For an indoor antenna with a 35-mile range, the performance is solid and very cost-effective. Great option if you want a simple way to get OTA channels without going back to cable or satellite.
