MD Hearing Aids

I say, Beware! I bought a single hearing device for $ 600 from MD Hearing, learned over time that it wasn’t going to work for me (trying the different domes, settings, etc. as suggested), then was told I was too late by a few days to return *the useless device* for a refund. The «manager for the day», Robert (he doesn’t give out his full name though he insisted on mine), actually rather SNARLED at me «Can’t you read?» [the trial period policy], when I called to explain my slowness to realize the problems with the «Fit» device. (I have moderate hearing loss, and only wear a device when absolutely essential for work. Wearing a hearing device around the clock gives me an earache). There are several flaws to the design, tiny dial for self-​adjustments, fragile battery door, constant squealing/​feedback that others can hear. But then the basic attitude was «We’ve already got your money. Tough if you’re not happy». I would be very skeptical BTW in regard to the «reviews» on the company’s site. (You’ve seen the pattern before, right? with other hyper-​marketed products: «Eloise P. from Boise says ‘I’m in ecstasy»…etc.). I could’ve bought two OTC hearing devices from another company for my $ 600, Hearing Help Express. Their devices work at least «as good» as the «Fit».

If you are on a budget, or even if you are not, I highly recommend the MDHearing Aids. (I do not get free ones or $ for saying this!) For $ 600, I got two hearing aids that would have cost me $ 4,000-$ 10,000 elsewhere. Are the $ 600 ones as good as the $ 4-​$ 10K? That I can’t tell you. All I can say is that I am happy with my purchase. Perhaps, it’s like cars. I can’t afford a Mercedes, either, but I’m happy with my Prius. On my budget, the MDHearing Aids do what I need them to do. I can hear better and they are comfortable enough to wear all day.
I purchased mine online through the website as their office is too far for me to go. If you go this route, you will need to get a hearing test done before you buy. Once you know what your hearing problem is, then you can call them and find out if the ones they offer will help you. I know they don’t work for everyone, but if you are like me with «old age» hearing loss, they probably will.
The customer service is awesome. I’ve called several times asking for help. Each time I got a live person who was VERY helpful.
Highly recommended!
