    Purchased it because our satellite provider and a major network were at a standoff on renewing contracts and I had to watch my football. Only got about 16 channels but got the one I needed. Couldn't mount where I wanted to. Had to mount higher on my wall. My TV is nowhere near the window or wall it needs to be for good reception. So, to be fair, it ain't bad.

    My folks were looking to get off the cable subscription they've had for years and just stick to internet streaming and local OTA channels. The Core Innovations Bar antenna did the trick, the LED indicator was helpful for placement and it was nice to see that a wall mount was included as an option (I opted to let it sit on a nearby shelf). I managed to pick up twice as many local channels with the Core Innovations antenna vs. the ancient rabbit ears that my folks had and the channels that both could pick up had much stronger reception with the newer antenna. I'd easily recommend this model to friends/family if they're also looking to cut the cord.

    Bought this antenna for the bedroom to replace my old Terk antenna. I know the wife hated the look of the Terk. Was hoping to get some more stations as the Core Innovations had an amplifier. The Good: - The Core antenna looks way better. Feng Shui of the room has gone way up and the wife is very happy. - The signal strength meter works good and really helps in antenna placement. No more guessing. - For the smaller size vs. the larger Terk antenna, it picks up just as many stations. Other comments: - I was hoping to pick up more stations than the Terk, as the Core has an amplifier, but no luck. The antenna's location is challenging as the bedroom is on the opposite side of the house, from the direction of most of the TV stations broadcast antennas. - I have tried many antennas for the bedroom. All have been returned due to poor performance. I always went back to the Terk because it did the job. I'm keeping the Core. Recommendation: Give the Core antenna a try. I believe you'll be happy with it's performance and looks. Don't expect to pick up 100+ stations from 80 miles away, just the ones that are in your area. Attached is a picture of the old Terk antenna that the Core replaced.

    Reception comes in great. TV next to the window so antenna sits nicely on the window seal giving full uninterrupted signal ^_^ Had to revert to antenna due to how high cable has become. Pretty much need cable only for internet these days.

    I was looking for an antenna that had great reception to watch the Dodgers Yankees World Series games. I picked this one since I could slide it into a small shelf under the TV and it looks like a sound bar. Really great reception, worked as soon as I plugged it in. The display bars was nice to know I had full reception at the spot I set it down.

    It may be a signal issue or a tv issue but I have to re-due the channel search on my tv often bc it looses the signal but after that it works very well. I have a new smart tv Sony and I can’t complain about the tv quality

    I have tried several other brands ans always had to move antenna around. Channels would connect whenever. Bought this one and love it. No more channel issues even when weather is bad. Easy to install and light that shows when you have the best signal. Highly recommend.
