    Not good for this area

    3 of the 4 networks in the Tampa area are on VHF-Hi band. This antenna seems more suited for UHF band. While it does work, I found I had to move it every time I changed between those channels, so I wouldn't call this multi directional as they claim. I'm able to get better reception with plain old rabbit ears, so I returned this product.

    I purchased this product to give me local cable channels. While I do get 2 to 3 digital channels most of the channels are distorted and do not come in at all. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

    It worked with coming in the channel I needed at first but the it started going out shortly after. Also other basic channels did not come in as hoped.

    Worse than a paperclip

    I've tried this off an on over the past two years. I am less than 10 miles from multiple broadcast stations and none come in clearly with this antenna. I've tried multiple positions and heights and none will give a consistent picture. It was purchased to replace rabbit ears that were too obtrusive. However, it performs worse. It is also literally worse than a paperclip as antenna. A paperclip at least manages to at least pull in one station without too much artifact.

    This antenna is bulky, and it doesn’t offer a clear picture. We had it sitting in a window for clear picture, but it only worked when the window was open. Frustrating, and not easy to use at all!

    I set it up as directions stated. I got almost 10 channels, BUT...none of them work. What a waste of money! For $30 I can get Sling TV. Instead of a white square that doesn’t do much of anything.

    I checked the distance to the tv stations before choosing the antenna, but it does not give satisfactory service. I bought two others and they work better than this one.

    Purchased this antenna to use with a small tv in my mother's apartment kitchen that had no cable hook-up. Worked well but did have to play with it a little to get it aimed correctly for all stations.

    I tried the antenna on my kitchen TV because this TV wasn't getting a consistent picture (pixels). This antenna did nothing to improve the picture and made the problem worse. Item was returned.

    AVOID.... after owning this a week, multiple location attempts no decent signal received. I tried this antenna in 2 different rooms with 2 different TVs (insignia and westingouse) the most channels it picked up was 6. I own other Tv antennas and this is bar far the worst performing HDTV antenna. Im in central (flat) California so terrain not a big issue. Needless to say this insignia antenna went back to bestbuy shelf, did not work for me. AVOID

    I got maybe 3 stations and they were generally pretty poor reception. But then again I'm out in the boondocks, so I can't really blame the antenna. I returned it.

    Good antenna

    I bought this antenna after canceling my cable subscription choosing to go instead with streaming cable provider. When the antenna picks up station they come in great and look better than they did in satellite; however, finding a place where all stations come in can be difficult. The antenna cord is long enough for you to stretch out and place the antenna in different locations but the reason I bought this antenna was because of its low profile, having to stretch it out and place it an in awkward location to pick up the most stations defeats that purpose.
