Very happy with this purchase.

We have a cottage that has no access to cable, dish or Wi-Fi. Until recently, we mostly used the TV to watch DVDs. We had a "rabbit ear" antenna that we attempted to use on occasion to watch the news, but the reception/signal was so bad it wasn't worth turning on the TV. A friend recently cut her cable and purchased this antenna so she could watch local channels. She was very happy with it, so we thought we'd give it a try. We are VERY glad we did. While the number of stations available to us are limited by our physical location, the six we do get are clear as a bell, the pictures are sharp and bright and the sound is good. This is a monstrously huge improvement over the two "blizzards" we previously had almost-access to. We are very happy with this Terk antenna.

We bought this TV to replace a smaller TV in our basement. So far, it has been perfect for our needs. The picture is clear and bright, the sound is good and it's the perfect size for the room it's in. I read reviews where people complained about the this TV being to "quiet" and others complained about the size of the remote and its buttons. I find the sound quality on this TV to be more than adequate. As far as the remote, in this day and age of pay more, get less, what did you expect? Everything is getting smaller, and the remotes for ALL brands of TVs, sound systems and anything else that has a remote, are no exception. I am very happy with this television.

I don't game and have no use for this even though it was free. Is Best Buy wanted to thank me for buying a clothes washer from them, they could have given me a greater discount on the washer or given me list of "freebie" options to choose from rather than "gifting" me with something that is popular with the general population. P.S. I rated 1 star because I was forced to do so buy this site, otherwise I wouldn't have given it any stars.

My old Whirlpool Cabrio was dying and my brother-in-law suggested I try a GE washer like his. I took his advice and I'm glad I did. The washer is quiet and really cleans my laundry. I like all the cycle options available. My only complaint is the auto-fill function doesn't add enough water to completely submerge the laundry, even after it's completely wet. It seems to me, agitating without enough water could be really rough and damaging to your clothing.

A great phone for the less tech savvy.

I bought this phone as an upgrade for my husband's 6-year old Samsung J7. His old phone, while still working, couldn't access some recently upgraded apps. Other than the learning curve of getting used to a new phone - which is totally on my husband, not thr phone - it is a great phone. It has more power, memory, a better camera and is much faster than his old phone.

My last phone, which I really loved, was a Samsung Galaxy Note 9. This new Galaxy S23 Ultra blows my old phone out of the water. It's beautifully made, easy to use and the camera is phenomenal. My only complaint is the location of the biometric touch point in the middle of the screen. If the screen is dirty or smudged, that touch point is difficult to use.

Excellent Cell Phone Screen Protection

I bought the Zagg screen protector for my husband's new Samsung S21. It has been working beautifully. The Zagg screen protector is tough but senstive enough to allow easy use of the phone's touch screen technology. Plus, if it peels off or otherwise fails during normal use, it's guaranteed for life.

Can I hook up more than one tv to this antenna? If so, what would I need?

I believe you can only hook this antenna to one television. It comes with a single coaxial cable and a single power cable.

with the TERK - Amplified Multi-Directional Ultra-Thin XL HDTV Antenna - Reversible for Black or White - How is the antenna attached to the wall?

The antenna comes with two screw hooks to attach it to a wall and two suction cups to attach it to a window. Where you place the antenna depends on where you get the strongest signal.

When I hooked up this antenna, I got only a few channels. I am not getting ABC, CBS, or NBC. Am I missing a step or is this all I’ll be able to get?

The stations you're able to receive depend entirely on the signal strength of the stations in the antenna's "range". You can try to recheck available broadcast stations by reusing the signal locater app on your phone, but if you did this when you originally set up your antenna, the stations you're getting now are probably all you're going to get.

Can the TERK - Amplified Multi-Directional Ultra-Thin XL HDTV Antenna - Reversible for Black or White be attached behind the mounted TV away from sight? Or does the antenna have to be attached on side of the tv away from the mount?

It is not supposed to be mounted behind/on your TV. For the best results, it should be mounted on a window or outside wall, facing the direction of the strongest signal(s). It comes with a really long cable for this very purpose.

How do I set it up does it have everything to hook it up

The Terk antenna comes with everything you need to hook it uo to your TV. You will have to download a "signal" search app on your phone to locate the strongest signals/stations so you can properly locate the antenna for maximum reception. Once I completed that step, I deleted the app from my phone.
