Britzgo Premium Hearing Amplifier for Adults and Seniors, Aids in Hearing, Rechargeable Battery with 50 Hour Life Per Charge, 2 Frequency Modes, Fits Either Ear, BTE,

I'm 71 year old retired scientist/Vietnam vet. I don't know if my hearing problems are due to my age or my service, but I now have problems understanding conversations. I think my hearing loss is typical, so an inexpensive unit that is designed to accentuate the higher frequencies ought to do the trick. Initially, when I turned them on everything appeared to be louder (a good thing). But as I tried to get accustomed to them I did some tests while watching TV and listening to my wife and I found that even though things are louder, they are no more intelligible using the amplifier than when not using it. They also give a quality to the sound, kind of like a cheap radio. They might work for others, but they didn't work for me. I ended up returning them.

The only good news I have for this product is that the customer service is outstanding - after this item failed after a week, they graciously, quickly, and without hesitation replaced the amplifier. After two replacements, the third one failed as well, and I have not contacted them again. It’s so sad, because for the few days that it worked, the joy my sister experienced was thrilling. But it’s like snatching candy from a child - showing her how wonderful it is to hear, and then plunging her back to silence is so sad. Hearing aids that probably work are thousands of dollars, which is out of reach for her, and we had such high hopes for this amplifier. Bottom line: if you get one that works, you’ll love it. If it fails on you, you’ll work with extremely nice people.

I know this just arrived yesterday, but it's made a world of difference. I have had significant hearing loss due to a genetic predisposition, but had the damage in one ear corrected back when insurance was good. Of course, that's the ear that I developed an infection in and wound up with a ruptured eardrum a week ago. I had an old listen up device, which allowed me to heat, but drove me crazy due to the lack of noise filtering. I can wear this without really noticing, and because it's rechargeable I won't spend a fortune in batteries. Hopefully my ear will heal in a few weeks, but in the meantime I feel so much better being able to hear what i want to hear.

This device cost less than $100 and definitely is NOT as good as a ($1,000+) hearing aid and it is not as good as a $200 internet hearing amplifier. You get what you pay for in something like this. For the price it does the job and is adequate for basic hearing assistance. I have an actual hearing aid that had to go in for repair and was told it could be "weeks" before I get it back. I bought this to bridge the repair gap. I have moderate hearing loss. With this device I can understand general conversation and most importantly my wife, TV and basic sounds. I was looking for a low cost assistance and this does the job very well. This device has simple controls, does not require replacement batteries, and for the low cost it is certainly effective. Great value if this is the price you want to pay - it does work and works well.

Received mine 24 hours ago, fantastic wore it golfing this morning it was gr8 had a brisk wind and no wind noise I am 83 and have had several hearing aids always trouble adjusting volume, loud enough to hear talk , back ground noise to loud . Must the britzgo is simple to use and fit now longevity time will. More than pleased thank you !!

Bought this last May for my 92 year old mother. Works like a charm, she loves it. Great deal for the price. When it stopped working, less than a year since purchasing, I contacted the company to see if it could be the battery and to get their advice. I got an almost immediate email with a return postage label and a note that apologized and said her replacement was on the way! Who does that? I was surprised and grateful for their product support and absolutely no hassle replacement. Very happy with the amplifier and the top notch customer service. Definitely worth the price.

Amazing, I can once again hear. It's the first thing I put on in the morning, the last thing I take off at night. Thank you for providing such an affordable product.

I use this for a different purpose than most probably use it for, but I have to say, it's actually quite good for what I need it for and is very well priced for the quality. I use it to assist me in hearing and waking up to my already very loud alarm clock and it's worked quite well so far so I'd recommend it, not to mention it stays charged all night. However, if you're looking for something to wear all throughout the day, you are losing your hearing, AND you have insurance that'd pay for a more expensive one, then I would likely suggest going that route. But if you don't have insurance and need something to assist you right now, then I'd say it's worth every penny.
