    We decided to stop paying for cable to save money and decided to give this a go. We were able to watch the super bowl in HD with no problems at all! Love that it comes with the option of a black and white side. We chose white since it matches our walls and honestly you can't really tell its there.

    It is good but not great. Not super expensive so you get what you pay for, but we kept it as we mostly stream and it gets the local channel we watch the most… but took some time to find it

    Not Insignia?

    I bought this antenna online last year and didn’t pay attention to the packaging when I received it. Set it up right away and it worked great, even better than my 3+ year old Mohu. But then a few months ago this antenna started to not work as great. I had been getting around 37 channels, but it jumped down to 32. I figured that maybe the OTA lineup had changed. But as time went on, it started picking up fewer and fewer channels. Finally it was down to 24. Several of those channels were random audio-only ones, a few didn’t have picture, and several of the major networks like NBC weren’t even showing up. I tried a lot of things, but when I plugged in my old antenna, boom, I picked up 37 channels again. So something was wrong with this black antenna. I still have an active protection plan so I went to the only Best Buy we have left, which was pretty far away, and I was told they couldn’t do anything with the warranty because the system didn’t recognize the barcode. That’s when I noticed the packaging was just generic and didn’t say Insignia. So now I’m stuck with a broke/defective antenna. It’s a good thing my old one still works.

    This antenna is excellent and works SO much better than the other antenna I tried, the Mohu Leaf. I was able to easily mount the antenna using the included push pins and some poster putty, and I've gotten every major channel available. The signal booster really gives it some good extra range and helped me get those last few channels in HD. I personally love this antenna and would recommend it to anyone, regardless of budget. It may be inexpensive, but it works like a charm.

    We were not sure what to expect from an antenna but for the price, we figured it be worth a try. This antenna has surpassed our expectations. Installation was very easy, basically plug and play. We didn't realize we bought an open box and some of the parts were missing but we made it work. It is barely noticeable on the wall. The antenna receives up to 60 local channels such as Fox, CW, PBS, ABC, NBC, HSN, QVC, and some other irrelevant ones. It is great to finally be able to watch live local channels and the news again after cutting cable about 2 years ago. The picture quality remains sharp even after bad thunderstorms. We should have bought one sooner.

    Antenna is awesome at reception of more Local Channels than I thought were available. Totally simple to Set Up. Even distant from a window, in this case in a room corner, Reception is stable and clear! Best Buy had it at my door in no time, I was surprised at the ease of ordering and how quickly it was Delivered. I totally recommend this Antenna!

    Why Pay for Cable

    I ditched cable and hooked this up to my TV. Picture quality is perfect. The number of channels I’m getting is insane! I’m getting channels that the cable company made me pay for an higher package to get. I put one on every tv. It is super thin and I placed behind the TVs so it is barely noticeable.

    Very easy to set up. Recommend checking the DTV reception websites to see how many channels are actually available before buying. Picture is very clear and nice the antenna can be flipped. Between white or black to match your set up. The pins to hang on a wall are durable and the higher I put it up, the more channels I got. Nice to have Fox and NBC for free

    Good cheap antenna with limitations

    Bought on a whim. In Chicago suburbs 37 miles from farthest broadcast towers. First day I tried it in every spot I could reach with it's 10 foot cord (plus moving the TV a bit). Got 5, 9, 11 (sometimes), 26, 60,66. Not happy. So I bought a similar but slightly bigger one rated #1 by Consumer reports for this type of indoor antenna. I was expecting better reception but didn't get it. However with it's much longer cord, I was able to move the antenna around more and found a unexpected spot in a wall with better reception. Then I moved TV and tried this one on same spot and it was just as good and $20 cheaper. Now I added (during day at least have not tried at night yet), channels 7 and 32. Not I will never get reception of channel 2 with an indoor antenna. Long and short, seems as good as most any indoor amplified antenna and cheap so it's a winner. However the shorter and thinner cord may make the Winegard FL5500A a better and slightly more expensive choice to actually find proper placement for your antenna.

    Great antenna, but still needed rooftop antenna

    A decent antenna if you live close enough to your networks towers. 60 miles might be correct in Kansas. I got this to go with my Tablo 4 tuner device I also bought here. It found all but my ABC local and a bunch of fun rerun tv channels, 83 in total. But thats not the whole story. Just because it sniffs all these channels out. Does not mean the signal is strong or reliable enough to watch or even record the channel. But that is not the fault of the antenna. Its very good for the size, price and ease of placement. Sadly I had to go for a roof top antenna to get the network signals that were up to 50 miles away for me in the edge of the Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania foot hills of the Appalachian mountains. Everyone's needs and location will vary greatly. I say give this a try, it will get a few channels and might be all you need. I'm not sure I will keep this and did already buy a nice GE antenna for my chimney mount that easily did get my more distant signals. But, amazed this works as well as it does. Urban dwellers will likely only need antennas like this one.

    The performance of the insignia amplified ultrathin indoor HD TV antenna is impressive, especially in areas with decent signal strength. And effectively captures both VMF and UMF signals, providing clear, high definition, picture, quality without any noticeable sign drops or pixelation. The design of the antenna is one of that stand out features. As the name suggests, it is incredibly thin and unobtrusive, making it easy to integrate into the living space without disruption to the aesthetics.

    Digital Antenna is a Must Buy, These Days

    Replaced my old Rabbit Ears antenna with this bad boy. Could kick myself for waiting so long to buy a more powerful modern piece of technology to get the local channels! Easy to set up, read the instructions on placement. It really does help if you can place it up high to pick up some of the weaker signals, but when placed right behind my TV, I could get CBS, NBC and ABC super clear. Placed it in a higher position and was able to get FOX, and all the PBS channels to come in super clear. This product is a must these days with all the streaming options, it's hard to get a plan that includes your local channels, and this is the best route to go. It's cheap, it works, and it the picture looks great.
