The unpowered flat antenna in the basement is getting 50+ stations. This powered "bar" on the main floor with a better view is getting 40. It's not great, not terrible, just average in performance.

Very small, and easy to mount. I actually used Velcro to mount to the back of the tv and it works great.

It works great, and not an eye sore. I would recommend it if you don't want to pay for basic channels.

Antenna pulled in about 4 stations. However if it moved a foot in either direction the station was lost. Could be the area we live. Otherwise would probably work fine in a different location

Our rabbit ears antenna recieved the same amount of channels as this antenna did. The look of it is very nice and appealing but we will be returning it to see if we can find better.

These actually work pretty good and are fairly easy to set up. We live in the country and don't want to subscribe to cable or satellite and were using a regular antenna for our main television. We bought a couple of these for our extra televisions and they pick up most of the local basic channels, which is all we needed.

Decided to try and get away from my basic cable bill. This antenna really pulls in the channels. I was able to pull in 50 channels. Not all channels are clear or wanted by me. But overall I received all my normal channels except ABC6. I understand it transmits on low band VHF which is hard to get. I would recommend to those trying to cut the cable cord.
