Customers consistently note the Horizon Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna's excellent picture quality and ease of installation. However, many users report inconsistent reception and a lower-than-expected channel count, with some experiencing difficulties receiving a strong signal or accessing a wide range of stations. The antenna's advertised range also appears to be unreliable for some customers. While some found it to be a good value, others were disappointed with its performance.

I purchased this antenna and the Mohu Leaf 50 at the same time. This unit was advertised on the package to be able to receive channels up to 60 miles away. The folding design snaps together, but doesn't lock well enough. The overall experience with this Terk unit resulted in decreased reception versus a far less expensive RCA amplified antenna. If you're close to all of the stations that broadcast in your area, this isn't a bad choice. But if you need range, look elsewhere.

It is pretty pricey, but you will get a lot of channels and good reception if you require up 60 miles from the nearest tower. It absolutely needs to be placed by a window, and you need to move it around until you feel that you have the channels you prefer or all. I gave it four stars, because there is times when reception is a littl faulty.

I live in a rural area about 30 Miles from TV towers and was told to give this a try. On a good, clear day, I get channels pretty good. Any type of overcast and they will cut in and out. Disappointing due to the range it said it could get

Did not want anything fancy just wanted to get the local news early in the morning and late at night. This product works for local channels but has some delay at times. Meets my needs so I am happy.

I found this online for a great price and ordered it. Easy to assemble and hook up did not get all the local channels like I had hoped. Ended up returning it to local store no hassle return.

This product didn't work for me but that doesn't necessarily mean that you shouldn't give it a try. I was having problems reaching one station and I think it had to do with the location of my TV and all the trees over my place. The stations that it did get were clear and no interference.

This antenna is better than most,however it is quite big and unsightly on the wall. It mostly works pretty well,but sometimes fades in and out. I use it for occasional viewing local news etc.,works pretty well for me.

Had to scan for channels more than 4 times a day; sometimes I tuned into 2 channels, others 17. Unless you want to scan for channels every time you watch, don't get this item.

Needed an antenna for the TV in the bedroom and this one fit the bill. It fit perfectly in the window and picked up 26 channel including the big three. The best part is it was on sale when I needed it, a bonus.
