    • He actually recommended a different antenna to use (Wide Band Directional Antenna 700-2700 MHz) and with everything set up I went from zero bars to two bars and paired with a bluetooth
    • For now I gave it 4 stars, I will change it to a 5 once I get the correct antenna for it
    • The best antenna so far is one I got on sale at Radio Shack for $15
    • I just put the antenna on my window sill and use an adapter plug that I got for about $2 and it works just fine
    • I got the amazon bundle, which included the wrong antenna, it had a female end that was the same as the sleek device
    • If the mini antenna works this good the booster antenna will make this product even better.
    • The external antenna and the internal antenna interfered with each other and the unit did not work well.
    • The lil tiny antenna it came with actually worked pretty well and surprised me it worked so good to tell the truth.
    • The lil tiny antenna it came with actually worked pretty well and surprised me it worked so good to tell the truth.
    • I appreciate that the antenna connects solidly as well.
    • The mini antenna worked just as well as the larger antenna that was supposed to "Double" the signal that I purchased
    • The antenna seems to work
    • Although the sleek is designed for use in cars with the antenna mounted on the roof, I had read in reviews that other RV users placed the antenna on a metal surface inside their RV and it worked well.
    • This antenna significantly improved my
    • Advise to buy bigger antenna if you work or live in remote area
    • I have had to order the adapter and have to wait to use the better antenna, but it can only enhance my calls
    • a 1 bar gain, again keep in mind it is the very small mini antenna that was included I expect more when the correct(larger) antenna arrives
    • The small antenna gives me just as much gain as the large one does now, but that may be because of my line of sight to the antenna.
    • He likes the results so much he ordered the better antenna for permanent mounting.
    • an additional kitCONS:- Antenna only works when grounded
    • The correct 12" antenna is the Wilson #301125.
    • The external antenna and the internal antenna interfered with each other and the unit did not work well.
    • Purchased the bigger antenna and it works fine
    • No on/off switch (you're supposed to just unplug the power cable)- Power-in and Power-to-phone ports are not labeled (they look identical)- Side securing arms make it difficult to type on the iPhone (I moved mine up to the top of the unit to address this)- Cables are a relatively heavy gauge, which means that they will move your Sleek around, even when it's secured in the cradle.- Antenna, Power, and power-to-phone cables can get messy, and no cable management is included with device or
    • I even bought the better antenna
    • It comes with 6" magnet antenna & a car charger & a USB charging cord as well & that's how I am powering it in the house
    • The sleek and a good antenna changed that
    • If I had read the directions first, fitting the phone might have saved a little angst, but the arms are in the wrapper with the car mounting bracket, who would figure?One thing needed to hook the Sleek most other antennas, other that the one that comes with the unit, is a FME-Male to SMA-Male Adapter
    • Or dont know to get a stronger antenna to reach the signal
    • We plan to get the more powerful antenna to install on our RV in the hopes we'll get service in those out of the way, out of service areas we go to.
    • But I was able to get the "wrong" antenna to work with an adapter, Wilson FME-Male / SMA-Male Connector 971119.)In
    • The antenna that came with the package, probably is a waste of money if you are using it in a fixed location, and I will probably try it out when I go on the road, but I also have another larger magnetic antenna I would be using for some serious back road travel
    • Installation involves putting a short antenna with a (surprisingly strong) magnetic base on your roof, and then running a clumsy black antenna cord through your car, under or across your dashboard, to the holder
    • The antenna isn't very obvious, and it's not very difficult to run the wires.
    • I used a home/office mount to secure the antenna inside my vehicle with velcro.
    • The wrong antenna had no number on it to know it was the wrong one until I opened it
    • I realize that this device is marketed for use in a car, but as long as you use a decent ground plane with the antenna (a metal cookie sheet works really well; smaller and more convenient but slightly less effective substitutes include candy or tobacco tins), it works very well inside a building
    • Then put the Wilson antenna about 2 meters away from the Wilson sleek
    • There appears to be two packages listed on Amazon, one with the right antenna (which, I didn't pick) and the one with the "other" antenna (which I picked... and no, I'm not good in Vegas either)..
    • Easy to install, includes magnetic antenna
    • To see a big difference in signal strength, you will need to upgrade to the better antenna
    • (This wasn't really the correct antenna for the Sleek, due to a cable connector mismatch.
    • It works very well to make home reception work in a near dead zone and that is even without mounting the antenna on a window as recommended
    • The antenna that comes with it is good, but I don't have a way to mount it, that is the only reason I am getting another antenna.
    • It came with a teeny tiny little pathetic antenna
    • Now I just need to find a way to fasten it so it can't fall out if someone bumps the antenna.
    • Right after I coupled the Sleek to my external Wilson Trucker antenna
    • Sleek Cell Phone Signal Cradle Booster for All Cell Phones with Mini Magnet Mount Antenna
    • Stuck the antenna to my barbecue pit on my back
    • When order arrived it was the same wrong antenna and a different but wrong sleek
    • IF you are buying the AMAZON package with the home/base AND extra antenna (the larger unit) make sure you get the correct antenna.
    • Pretty cheap, the sun kills the antenna in short order
    • Nice when things work as they should.
    • Not as good as I had hoped that it would be.
    • i actually did not think this thing could possibly be as simple to use and work as it was advertised.
    • I have used this item to boost more then one cellphone at a time as long as they are touching the booster
    • When everything came I seemed to be missing an
    • We do see an improvement from 'no bars' to enough 'bars' to make a call with a 2G phone with T-Mobile but inconsistent, not due to the booster but due to a weak tower signal
