    This antenna certainly meets my expectations, I am glad I bought it! Because I have textured walls the adhesive squares did not secure the antenna to the wall, but adding mounting putty did the trick!

    I bought two antennas which brands claimed to be "the best" of the market. However, after reading an article from THE NEW YORK TIMES regarding the Best Buy's Antenna, I can confirm that this antenna is Super Great. Thank you Best Buy!

    Great reception

    Can watch all the local channels with great reception. I sometimes need to move it a little for different channels but usually it gives me great reception without having to move it. (It is by a window which might be helping)

    This extremely affordable Antenna, does a beautiful job if you are within a reasonable distance of the broadcasters. I hooked one up to a friends' tv right across the Hudson river from Manhattan & easily got over 60 channels crystal clear!!!

    Inconsistent

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It's an awkward shape. I had it having on the wall but I had to move it sure to poor reception. IDK It'll work on for awhile then it will start to pixelate for no apparent reason. I have to keep moving it to get the stations. Sometime or will lose the signal completely. Then I have to move it in all directions to get it to come back in. On the floor, on the wall. Closer to the sliding glass doors, wave it around, behind, under, in front of the TV, throw it behind the TV stand, Toss it in the air and wherever it lands, it lands....Give up... It does work, it's just not consistent.

    Best $10 antenna I bought

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I went to Best Buy to pick up a new antenna for the living room, since the last one I had only picked up a few channels. Out of all the options, this was not only affordable but also really good quality. I have all the channels that I never got with the old antenna. Works well with a smart tv too.

    Modestly-priced antenna is perfect for my location

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This low priced antenna is perfect for my location, 10 miles from stations in Chicago. Antennas with preamplifiers can frequently overload TV tuners, so this is perfect for this location.

    "Cut the cord" and using this antenna as a supplement. I can watch a few local channels without adding a streaming service.

    It works great and was easy to hook up. Lots of channels to watch. I wish it had a longer cord or an extension for tv’s that are not close to a window.

    Best Buy Essentials - Thin Indoor HDTV Antenna

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    When the airway signals come through to the TV's the quality of the picture and sound is excellent. From some channels, the broadcasts are momentarily interrupted and we get a "Weak or No Signal" prompt on the TV screen. I don't know if this is due to a weak station broadcast signal, atmospheric conditions, inability of the antenna to receive the signal, or my inefficient positioning of the antenna. Time will tell how best to resolve this issue as I get more and more used to using this antenna. Overall, however, I am extremely pleased with my purchase and feel it is excellent value for the money spent!

    Antenna does okay job with getting local channels. However, getting it to "stick" with any success is impossible.
