Hearing Aid, Hearing Aids for Seniors, Mini Sound Amplifier

I read the reviews before purchasing and the most concerning ones I read were about the unit cutting off and on for no reason but I shrugged it off as just a random manufacturing defect as these are mass produced. However, upon receiving my unit and after inserting the battery it did not turn on and then magically did. Soo okaay, whatever that was about. Next day wearing the unit it turned off then on then off then on. I am not happy but willing to give the supplier another chance by sending me a new unit UPDATE** Company replaced my defective unit free of charge and shipped it expeditiously. I now leave a 5 star review. Thank you guys for responding so quickly.

The battery door broke on my original one, I got a replacement sent, which worked OK for a couple weeks until the battery door broke on that one. It works well enough, but the Quality isn't very good.

It was wonderful, until the battery door broke just under 6 months. I will probably buy again (not available from this seller). I can't afford $$$ for something as fragile as a hearing aid. I will get the 2 year warranty the next time from Amazon.

My initial reaction after wearing numerous aids for decades. I purchased this as an amplifier to hear conversations when the BTE models need to be removed; like during a haircut. This aid works! And since I have only worn it for a day, I may add future comments. Points to consider: immediately replace the as delivered A10 bateries with new,fresh ones. The volume knob is setup for counter-clock adjustment (CCW) to increase the volume. Once setup for comfort, you may find sudden, loud noises such as a sneeze may be startlingly loud. Adjust volume down a bit. So, longer term use...tbd future comments may be coming!

Got this little guy to replace a $1150 "pro" item my dog ate. This J20 works GREAT. The sound is great and easy to set.... spot of glue it remembers. For less than one thirtieth my "pro" unit J20 still working fine. After realizing Big Big difference in my hearing or lack there of will keep replacing if it ever fails. The $1150 "pro" has been "tuned 3 times" and still not usable. While I was (custom ear mold fit) waiting for my "pro" replacement I also got the Tking which is little more complicated to adjust but with so many fail reviews got this too. BOTH work fine for me and could have saved thousands of dollars. Old too soon wise too late. UPDATE******** Today June 17th the little swing door that holds the battery broke. OKAY, I just purchased the replacement for 3 dollars more... go figure. Hey even at 2 per year a long ways from the $1180 for a so called professional device that never worked or could for my particular application. It would be awesome if these little battery doors were a replacement item. HINT, HINT ,,, oh well. Up DATE #2. Search Amazon for Hearing Amplifier Accessories, Battery Doors 3-Peice ...... Took a chance got 3 and VIOLA fit my J20 and my Tking. My only complaint with these little guys is the fragile battery doors. Now with replacements moved 2 stars to 5 would be more is spot available. Now I can be A HAPPY OLD MAN ,,, yes!

Disappointing and much inferior to two similar sound amplifiers bought in the past. Unacceptable level of background noise (not an amplification of sound issue but rather background hum of a poor amplifier). The amplification is fine, but the background hum/hiss makes it too annoying for me to use even with low amplification setting. It may be a bad unit, but I doubt that's the issue. The first battery I used from the ones included did not last an hour--and yes, I exposed the battery to air for several minutes prior to installing as is required for this type of battery, Do not confuse with better look-alike products. I wish I could have bought the same unit as one I lost but "brands" are meaningless and ever-changing with these imports.

I had great hopes for this device. It was my first attempt at a hearing aid/amplifier. It worked right out of the box! Until........it didn't. I tried it a half-dozen times, and it seemed to work! Then I decided to try it in the company of other people. It worked for about 5 minutes and just quit. I tried switching batteries (there was an extra included with the product). That did not work. I ordered new batteries, thinking that maybe the batteries were old. That did not work. I tried adjusting the volume of the device, and that did not work either. So, I am back to square one!

I have tried many different kinds of Hearing Aid ( this is really a sound amplifier). This is the best so far for low cost ($25.19). Pros 1. It has feedback sound cancellation, this is very important. It will SQUEAL during your placing it in your ear. But once you pushed it in enough, the squeal will stop. 2. It does not have background noise like some that I have returned, so it is quiet when no sound is around. This is called sound threshold elimination. 3. The microphone is in your ear so the outer part of your ear that catches sound helps you collect extra sound waves to help you hear. Another type of hearing aid has two pieces joined by a tube, one part goes in you ear and the other part hangs over your ear with a pin hole microphone:- as a result you outer ear that catches the sound is useless. 4. Low Cost:- only $25.14 for one ear. 5. The cost is low, so if you lose one, buy another. 6. With two ears, you can tell the direction of the sound. Cons. 1. It is not like the $5,000 proper hearing aid that is adjusted to you hearing chart for each ear; so use lowest volume to avoid damaging you hearing. 2. The little cone piece ( pale white) that you have to put on yourself (to fit your ear size) is not that easy to put on. Make sure you chose the right size and put it on securely. Not using the right size will make it SQUEAL in your ear. 3. It is small, so adjusting volume is not that easy ( Clockwise for louder and Counter clockwise for softer). The Volume Control adjustment on your CIC Hearing Aid will rotate freely. So every time you take them in and out of your ears, they will move a little Here is a method of verifying your volume control setting on your hearing aid. After you have adjusted your Hearing aid to "YOUR" preferred setting, make a mark on the top of the volume control with a permanent marker as shown in the photo. Now you will know if you hearing aid has the proper adjustment before you insert them into your ears. If the hearing aid battery door attachment breaks, you can but 3 for $7.99 (choose left or right ear) See :- BLJ Hearing Amplifier Accessories, Battery Doors 3-Peice, it fits IncenSonic
