Q: What is the quality of your hearing aids?
A: Our hearing aids are made from the highest quality components and materials and are Made in America. All products have been submitted to the FDA for approval prior to being sold to you.

Q. How can you sell hearing aids so cheaply?
A: Because we buy directly from the manufacturer, there are no middle men (or women :). Using the Internet, we bypass the distribution channel of audiologists, dispensers, and physicians. When you buy a hearing aid from any of these professionals, they mark up the cost of the product so they can make a profit. We feel this is an unnecessary cost that consumers should not have to pay. That is why our hearing aid prices are sometimes up to 75% off what you would pay a hearing professional.
In fact, we have
professionals who buy from us for resale because of
our great prices.

Q: How do I know a hearing aid will work for me?
A: If you have filled out the questionnaire and your points are above 6
and below 16 then you should be satisfied after
purchasing.
|
Q: Do I need a prescription or a hearing test
from a professional?
A: Neither are required, however to meet FDA requirements, you
must "click" on a waiver form before you checkout. This form acknowledges that you believe you are a candidate for a hearing aid and that you waive any requirement for a hearing test
from a professional.
|
Q: How do I know it will fit properly?
A: Most hearing aids are designed for either the right or left ear. However, our hearing aids are uniquely designed to allow them to be used for either the right or left ear.
Each hearing aid comes with three different soft
tips that allow you to choose the best fit for your
ear canal. In the first few weeks, you will experiment with "fitting" the hearing aid to your ear and until you find a comfortable fit. Please see our After You Receive page for more information.
|
Q: How long will my hearing aid last?
A: Your hearing aid will last for years if you take care of it. If, a few years down the road, something happens to your hearing aid, it can always be repaired. If you take advantage of our extended warranty when you purchase the item, we repair it at no cost to you if it needs repair within the warranty period.

Q: Will a hearing aid help me with a tinnitus problem?
AA:
It might, although usually not. A hearing aid might
mask the ringing sound caused by tinnitus. The
degree of the result depends on severity of the
tinnitus and of the individual. However, we
strongly suggest you do not purchase one of our
hearing aids to try to mask a tinnitus problem...you
will probably be disappointed.

A: Our batteries are guaranteed for 196 hours. We offer replacement batteries in packs of 6. |
