They do help, but they only amplify the signal. If your out in the sticks where there is no signal then there is nothing to amplify. The other issue is only one device can be used with each "sleek", so we ended up getting a upgraded booster system so the DW and I (along with our MIFI) could all benefit as well as our occasional visitors.
The Sleek, of course, can't help you when the cellular network stalls or goes down completely. We're currently in a location with somewhat marginal Verizon 4G signal. The sleek helps our phone, acting as our hotspot, to maintain a connection but sometimes the data signal goes to zero throughput even though the phone continues to think it is connected. After a few minutes things return to normal but during the "outage" all the amplification in the world is to no avail.
