Works great - time to cut the cord!

I bought the Mohu Leaf 30 based on the Amazon reviews, and it works great! We live on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, and we get 24-28 channels on the ground floor without any effort to adjust the antenna placement. We also tried the more expensive Glide based on the recommendations when we input our address, but the more expensive Glide only got half the channels of the less expensive and less cumbersome Mohu Leaf 30 original. The picture quality is clear, and the channels are easy to set up and access. We just push the button for TV (as if we had cable) and all the Mohu Leaf antenna channels come up. We get all of the basic channels and then some extras, but I wish we had PBS. We can stream PBS using Channel 13 Passport, however, so it does not end up being a problem. The combination of the Mohu Leaf that requires no monthly fee and a streaming service like DirecTV Now gives us all the live TV that we need. There is really no reason to pay for cable or satellite TV, so we have cut the cord!

by BomBayMan (5 out of 5 stars)

Decided to cut the cord as new year resolution and loving it so far. No more triple-digit monthly bills to pay! And no more Political Porn masquerading as NEWS - whether CNN or FOX!!! But I digress...

I bought two antennas, one for master bedroom and another for family room. I live about 35 miles NW of Chicago downtown and both catch ALL major networks The picture quality is awesome. The antennas hide BEHIND both wall mounted TVs and it is NOT a problem. The master bed antenna catches more channels than the Fam Room because it's on the second floor. But I'm not missing anything because the only channels missing are some obscure channels that I never cared for any way. Any major network is no problem at all - CBS, NBC, ABC, FOX, PBS, WGN, and many more.

This is not about the quality of the antenna itself, but if you're like me trying to cut the cord - then one thing to realize is that you will not have the DVR capability with antenna. If you must have it then cutting the cord is not for you. Speaking for me, I thought that it would be a problem. But a few weeks of "no DVR" is actually working out so much better. I am not spacing out while watching something because I know I can not do a 15 sec jump back. I am saving a lot of time not wasting my time watching same things again because someone else spaced out (though my wife will vehemently disagree that she ever spaced out - it was always me :)

All in all - if all you need is Network TV and Netflix/YouTube/Amazon Prime then this is the best antenna as long as you live within 40-50 miles of transmission towers.

Finally a Antenna that can get more channels
by D. H. (5 out of 5 stars)
January 1, 2019

I've tried several different indoor antennas and never got more then 5 channels. This was my last attempt at a indoor antenna, and I'm glad I got this one. I live 10 to 44 miles from the broadcasting towers in my area, and the channels come out perfect. I get more then 40 channels with wonderful clarity. I have this antenna and a fire stick, and get so many more channels now then I did when I was paying for cable. I'm now saving over two hundred dollars a month. I'm extremely happy with this purchase.

Non-working wall decoration
by G. Stanley (1 out of 5 stars)
May 19, 2018

As a TV antenna it is an ugly wall decoration. (reviewing the Leaf 30) Tried multiple locations and orientations but this "antenna" would not pick up the local NBC or PBS or FOX stations at all. The ABC stations were picked up but were troubled by frequent pixalations and freezes. This is on the east side of Portland, OR. All the broadcast towers are less than 15 miles away with a straight line-of-sight, unobstructed view (according to antennaweb.com). We get better reception with an old set of rabbit-ears left over from the analog days. I returned this for a refund.

Best Tested but MOHU Include a Better Cable!!
by JPowellCreative (4 out of 5 stars)
February 16, 2015

Out of all the exhaustive testing I did choosing a HDTV antenna for inside use, this one tested the best and just edged out the Amazon Basics equivalent version. It's sleek, modern looking, compact and has holes all ready to go for hanging on the wall. Most importantly it's reception ability in my area (once a suitable location was found...this style of antenna seems very dependent on placement, more so than the metal antenna style) was the best out of all tested. I'm picking up stations over 50mi away crystal clear!!! (but I'm in Central Texas).
***However, before you read anymore, I want to say shame on MOHU for cheaping out on the included cable. While it's fancy looking and branded...it is not copper cored! During my testing, I noticed about a 15% picture degradation on this one that differed from prior tests with it...I replaced the cable back to the solid copper coax i had previously used and boom full picture resolution was back. So DO NOT used the included coax cable. They got a star reduction for that crap. Especially since this one is the most expensive and "premium" example for this style...I find it particularly reprehensible that they did that.

In addition to the above I also tested the 1byOne Super HDTV Antenna, the RCA cheapie rabbit ears, the RCA Indoor Amplified TV Antenna, this MOHU Leaf (standard 30mi range) and the Amazon Basics HDTV Antenna (same 30 mi range).
- The RCA unpowered cheapie rabbit ears does admirable for the price but falls short in pretty much every other area including resolution.
- The RCA indoor amplified did a pretty job but was also pretty susceptible to wind. The bulk and ugly black rabbit ears against my gray wall ruled this one out.
- The 1byOne was super flimsy and cheap but did a decent job although it also seemed very susceptible to wind as well. The cheapness, lack of detachable cable and the fact that while you can paint it, it only comes in black (no white side like MOHU) lead me to send that one back as well.

The two best performing ones for my location were the Amazon Basics and the MOHU. I ultimately went with the MOHU because of the detachable cable and it's smaller/thicker receiver material and it's sleeker / not as flimsy and large build as the Amazon one.

works great in Chicago, IL. Image quality is beyond amazing (even better than HD quality of cables. Over the Air signals are not compressed so you get the best HD quality you can imagine), Typical channel I get in hte highest HD quality: PBS channels, ABC, NBC, CBS, WGN, Fox Chicago, theU channel and more. Major channels with great quality for FREE! I will attach pics.

Very Satisfied and more
by North Country (4 out of 5 stars)
October 19, 2017

This is my second Mohu HD antenna this model. Web sites to tell me how many channels of over the air Free TV say I may get 6. I am able to get 15 beautiful uncompressed channels and very happy. Now I can give Spectrum 2 over there cover charged set top boxes back for spare TV's and save some money which I research how to really cut the ties with them. I have Amazon Prime and this may be a good deal to explore. The picture is beautiful on the TV. It is easy to mount and have 2 pictures I hopefully can upload. The customer service and tech support is excellent and Mohu and exceed my expectations. Nice work and in manuf.in USA. A friend of mine has this antenna and he gets 29 channels. He said they keep adding them frequently. I hung my antenna toward the ceiling and facing East. Tacked it too the wall with the all ready made hole and there it is. Don't let it fall off wall or it can break. The stickys that come with it ok but tech support said tacks better and more secure. I agree

Not even close to the claimed range and channel reception
by Sting J (1 out of 5 stars)
November 14, 2018

I used the range estimator on the Mohu web site before purchase. It indicated I could get 32 channels at my address with this antenna. I was skeptical. Yet figured maybe get half that. But my brand new 4K UHD TV can only find 8 channels with this antenna. No channels with strong enough signal to actually watch. Blocky squares of very bad signal. So not 32 channels. Zero channels.

As they say "your mileage may vary". With this product it appears the mileage claims are not close to what one can actually get.

Best indoor antenna on the market
by TLP (5 out of 5 stars)
September 3, 2017

I live an average of 18 miles from all of the local TV broadcast towers and have set this antenna up on two TVs - one in the basement, the other on the first floor. The antennas reliably pick up all available channels on both TVs, and based on a prior purchase of another brand I do not think there is a better indoor antenna on the market. As other reviewers have said, the key to a successful outcome is experimentation with where to locate the antenna - while it is designed to be pinned to a wall, in my experience it works best away from the wall (for example, leaning against a curtain rod) and as high as possible. Both TVs required several days of moving the antennas to find the 'right' spot. Bottom line: unless you live extremely close to broadcast towers, do not expect this antenna to pick up every channel in the first attempt. You will probably need to spend some time standing on a chair finding the best place for it.

Pure Deception
by Wish You Were Here (1 out of 5 stars)
November 28, 2018

About 99% of the stuff we buy is made in China. So when I see an product with the statement "Premium Materials for Performance, USA Made, MH-110583" I am happy to spend the difference to keep people working here in the United States.

The antenna clearly states: Made in China. I cannot find a single item in the package labeled Made In USA.

I thought it is Federal law that products not made in the USA have to provide that information on the box. There is no declaration on the box stating where it is made. You can do better Amazon, stuff like this erodes my trust. Will probably return it to get a better price from a local store.
