I took 4 at home tests, all said negative, but I was definitely sick, scheduled a PCR test, 6 days after my symptoms started was the soonest I could get an appointment for, and it finally confirmed that I had covid. 2 different brands of at home tests kept telling me I was negative.

So, I don't doubt the anecdotal stories of people getting false negatives with the at home. My coworker also took 4 and only 1 finally showed positive in the end.
