Behind the Ear Sound Amplifier - BTE Hearing Ear Amplification Device and Digital Hearing Aids for Seniors PSAD for the Hard of Hearing, Noise Reducing, Black, By MEDca

I'm giving these a 5 star because they are a great value for the price. But if these were the expensive programmed type that cost $1600 at Costco, I'd give them a maybe 2 stars. Cheap hearing aids leave a lot to be desired, but they have an important place for the hard of hearing who can't afford $1600 for even the 'cheap' Costco ones. I look at them like my Dollar Store reading glasses...I always keep several pair on hand, because I always lose them. Pros: If you put the rubber earpiece on as far as it will go, and remember to turn down the volume before putting them on, the aids don't whistle. Sturdy and they don't look at all like cheap pieces of junk, like the $57 (for one hearing aid) Britzgo I bought. They amplify sound well and have a variable volume control all the way from nothing to LOUD. They aren't huge and they are pretty unobtrusive. There are different size earbuds for different size ear canals. They are pretty comfortable (but do take a bit getting used to, build up a bit at a time until you can wear them all day). It’s easy to learn how to put them in, just needs a bit of practice at first. Cons: They are still bigger than my old Costco aids. (But I bet this would make them easier to handle for people with tremors) While they amplify sound well, they amplify ALL sound. I can hear all the background sounds just fine, but I still have problems hearing voices, because these can’t be programmed to match the sound frequency I need to have amplified. I don’t know where the decibel cut of is for the ‘noise reduction’ feature is…when someone yells, or the phone rings in my ear, it sure seems awful loud! The description of the aids say, ‘…unique noise reduction feature and digital circuitry and control which means you have total control over what you hear and what you don’t.’ This is kind of misleading because you only have control over how quiet or how loud the sound is, there is no ‘total’ control, not when we can’t filter out high or low sounds. Other items: I hope the price on these don’t go up too much more, I bought mine for $15.99 and a week or two later they are almost $20 (which is still an excellent price, especially for 2 of them). I assume I got them at an introductory price. By the way, I bought two sets of them, right off the bat, even though there weren’t any reviews yet, but I figured they couldn’t be any worse than the stupid Britzgo I bought and I was tired of going ‘huh?’ all the time. I don’t know anything about the battery life yet, I haven’t worn them long enough. EDIT 3/29/18: The battery life is pretty bad, I can get maybe a day and a half out of them. The battery just kind of runs out and I have to turn up the volume until I need to change out the battery. I'm still giving these a 5 star though, because over all, they are still a good deal for the price. Overall: I can hear a lot better with these aids than without them. They’re not perfect, but they sure are great for the price. Buy a few pairs of them, if you lose things like I do.

Doesn't work, all you hear is echo and nonsense. Need to return

I was a bit skeptical about something being so inexpensive, I don't have a 2k product to compare it with, but I am really impressed. I ordered it yesterday and received it today. very fast. I recently got my hearing checked and I have medium (high-frequency ear loss) (been djing for 25yrs) I typically have to turn up the TV at night to hear the talking. The first thing I noticed is that I was able to hear some highs again, even though I can still hear, it's just muffled, almost like I don't have the treble turned up in my ears. It was weird because you could actually hear the wind outside and it is a bit loud at first, just have to find the comfortable level. So I did a couple of tests, first was the TV test, I could totally hear the tv better at a lower level, but what blew me away is that I was upstairs and could completely hear my wife and daughter talking in the kitchen and could actually understand what they were saying. Pretty awesome. the only CON I would say, (maybe I didn't look hard enough) is that they are black as opposed to a more blush color to blend in more. Very happy with the fast delivery and so far after one day, hearing the results.

Works ok but hard on batteries!

It works well enough. But don't expect clear sound as it amplifies everything.

I've purchased a number of amplifiers all higher priced than these. These work very very well. Obviously having a good fit is important but sound quality is great and the have less background noise than most. The batteries work better for me since re-chargeable models seemed to quit after a while. The batteries last about a week, just make sure to turn off the power when not in use.

It definately amplifies sound. The background noise is greatly amplified. Made erything sound like I had my head in a bucket.

My hearing aides bit the dust and I needed something quickly. These more than fit the bill. Good amplifier and nice fit.

Comprate per il mio anziano babbo, per l'uso a casa, la sera, per guardare la televisione (tenendo un volume della tv più basso) Mi riserverò entro 20gg dal 17/5/2022 d'aggiornare la mia recensione (alzando al massimo il numero di stelle, se il mio babbo sarà soddisfatto dell'uso del prodotto) oppure eventualmente restituire l'oggetto con la garanzia Amazon (portando ad 1 stella, e specificando eventuali problemi d'uso, se il mio babbo non sarà soddisfatto dell'oggetto, per un uso casalingo e serale della tv). 8/giu/2022 prodotto piaciuto, Ottimo e comodo da usare solo in casa (la sera) per vedere la tv, ad un volume più basso. Poco idoneo da portare fuori, dato che amplifica ogni tipo suono (dalla voce umana, ai rumori ecc...)
