Basic antenna for local networks
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Did what it said it would do. But didn’t fit our needs because network towers are too far away.

Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great for getting free TV channels without the cost of cable.

Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.don't really see a difference in quality of programs
No, I would not recommend this to a friendOnly For Very Short Distances
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had the impression from a reveiw site that this would work for me. It did not. It is an indoor flat antenna that is designed for shorter distances from broadcast signals. I am not sure what that is, but I was certainly way too far away.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendCheap material, shattered on falling
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The antenna fell as soon as we put it up and about 2 inches of the corner shattered into 20+ pieces. I didn’t return it because I thought I should have secured it better, but regardless it’s made of very thin cheap plastic. It picked up 7 air channels, all local, none of the major networks. We are in a small city/suburb (population about 20,000). I looked at the broadcast map and we are about 45 miles from major broadcast stations and this antenna rated up to 35 miles so not sure if it would work better in a major metropolitan area. I’m rating it 1 star for the poor quality of materials.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Signal strength
Terrible reception.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Even with being well within a 20 mile range of tv stations we could only receive one local network. This was a very underwhelming product.

We'll pass along your feedback to our product development team to help improve the performance of our antennas in future designs.

Best Place to Mount a Flat Antenna
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In the dumpster. Seriously, I'm only 7 miles from the broadcast tower and I can only pick up half of the channels being broadcast. The thin coax cable picks up interference from the local cell tower. UHF TV channels fade in and out constantly and VHF channels can't be picked up at all. If you insist on getting a flat antenna, get a used one and don't pay more than 5 dollars for it.

nope
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought it would be better. I am only 30 miles north of Atlanta. I scanned channels literally about 30 times over a couple days. Only a couple times it showed it picked up channels (that I did not even recognize) and when I tried to watch and see what it was it was horrible picture or no picture at all. returned for hopefully a better one
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDidn’t work for me
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I’d gotten one channel I would have been happy with it, unfortunately completely useless. Lived too far to be able to return on time, so a total waste of money.

Don’t waste your money
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The antenna didn’t work as advertised and it could not get a signal unless hung in a window facing North. Even when hung the antenna couldn’t get all the local channels despite being well within the mile-range advertised on the box. Very disappointed.
