Question: Does it work in basement
Document: I gave up and purchased satellite TV. That was 4 years ago. On a hunch, I received this antenna, and put it in my basement against the wall. I figured, what is there to lose. It was an easy set-up, and I figured that if it didn't work I would just take it back. I plugged this into my TV, and put it up against the wall. I was amazed to find that this antenna received the stations that my externally mounted directional antenna couldn't pick up!
It  gathers up all my local channels when hung in a small (below grade) basement window. Unbelievable. It almost gets the more distant stations. I may raise it 10 feet to the upstais window to get the more distant stations.
This antenna was very easy to set up, and the white side blended into the white wall in our basement level room where we hung it. The reception is very good considering it is in a basement level room. We get all the local channels within any range at all - the networks and two public television stations.
We live 11 miles from nearest tower, ~50 from next tower. Tuned 22 channels on first try, without any optimizing. It is in a a walk out basement, in a back room,ie less than optimal positioning. Very impressed. First step toward cable independence!
I do not want to pretend to be an antenna guru, and I did not have a prior antenna to compare this to, but I am still satisfied with this product. It looks exactly like what is pictured, and I am using it in my basement and still picking up a strong and clear picture. I'm not sure what else you could really ask for.
I have it on the wall in the basement and I pick up more stations than withrabbit ears. It's very thin and I like that one side is white and the other black.I like the longer cable than most of them have (15 feet! )The local stations are about 10 miles away. There is one that is about 25 milesaway and I can't receive that from the basement.
The antenna is light enough and the pads are sticky enough to hang the antenna upside down. I hung mine upside down because I attached it to the top of a basement window (possibly for better reception) and ran the cable down the side of the window well. If it was hung right-side-up, the cable might detract from the window view.
There are knock off's/similar  procucts made overseas, and sometimes they are HIGHER in price.From an ease of use standpoint, it really is plug and play, wich is great! I could easily imagine this being used in dorm rooms, a kitchen, garage, basement or anywhere you might need an extra TV, but lack a cable hookup.
This is the second antenna I tried in my garden level (half way to a basement) apartment. I've been trying to get rid of cable, but didn't want to be without local news channels. This doesn't pick up all available channels, but when placed in my kitchen window (I purchased the model with the extra long cable) where there is nothing blocking it, I am able to pick up NBC, FOX, PBS and others.
This product does a good job of tuning in the local channels. It is a bit tricky to find the best spot to mount it to get the best reception, but once you find it, all stations a very clear. Only once an a great while do I get some pixelation. It even works well in our basement (pixelation here is more frequent - like once every hour on average) although not as well as the main floors, but I would guess that is to be expected. The slim coaxial cable is plenty long, allowing for the most flexibility in placement.
Answer: I think it would if there is a window.  Mine is on a ground level window and get great reception not knowing which direction it's suppose to be pointed.  I'm impressed on the clarity of the picture.
