The verdict

A sensible, low-cost starting point for apartments and homes within about 35 miles of the broadcast towers. Range depends heavily on your location and placement, so treat the 35 mile figure as a maker rating and check a tower map for your address before buying.

The FLATenna is a flexible, ultra-thin indoor antenna that picks up free over-the-air broadcasts without a monthly fee. Channel Master rates it for towers up to 35 miles away and says it supports ATSC 3.0 and NextGen TV broadcasts when available. It is not amplified, has a reversible black and white finish, can be painted, and includes a 12 ft detachable coaxial cable and adhesive strips. A 1-year limited warranty applies.

Strengths

  • Very thin and light, so it mounts flat on a wall or window with the included adhesive strips.
  • Reversible black and white finish that can be painted.
  • Includes a 12 ft detachable coaxial cable.
  • No subscription needed for local broadcast channels.

Weak spots

  • Not amplified, so weak-signal homes may need a booster sold separately.
  • The 35 mile range is a maker rating, not a guarantee for your address.
  • Only a 1-year limited warranty.

Great for

  • Apartments and small homes within about 35 miles of the towers
  • Cutting a streaming or cable bill with free local channels

Skip if

  • Rural homes far from broadcast towers
  • Anyone who needs a long-range outdoor or attic antenna
