I'm a first-time buyer. I have moderate loss.

I really like the Eargo 7, totally in the canal units.
But they are for mild to moderate loss people and I'm afraid I'm on the top-end of their capabilities.

How comfortable are the over-the-ear units??

Thanks in advance.

I have a pair of Sam's hearing aids now. The APP for my iphone is good. The price was around $250 for each hearing aid. The fellows there in the store are good to work with and will demonstrate "cleaning" the wax out when that happens. I've had much more expensive hearing aids which went bad & couldn't be fixed. SO, I'm happy with Sam's.

My wife and I have purchased hearing aids from Sam’s Club recently. Craig and Derry are consummate professionals. They take the necessary time to educate you on the care and use of the products they offer. They have also worked for other companies and can compare and contrast brands.

Our hearing loss is in the mild to moderate range and these over the ear aids are our first. Very comfortable and easy to get used to. Overall, great experience (both with product and personnel) at a reasonable price.

Personally I didn’t care for the ones that go into the ear canal, the Dr. & I thought they gave me a plugged up feeling. I have over the ear Hearing Aides, the only reason I don’t care for them is everyone knows you can’t hear very well. But at least I don’t have to keep saying, HUH!

You may want to consider shopping Costco. I purchased the Jabra Enhanced Pro and am happy with the hearing aids and app. According to Costco they handle three lines of hearing aids and only sell the top of the line product so there’s no good, better and best decisions to make. They also claim to sell 60,000 pairs of hearing aids per month. The cost last year was $1,600 - $1,700 range as I recall. I bought the over the ear type. Good luck.

This mirrors my experience exactly. While I was test driving beltone my phone must have eavesdropped on me and recommended Jabra. I couldn't tell any difference except price.

My loss is mild/mid in the high tones. Great app.

I've heard the Costco vs. Sam's Club aids is a Chevy vs. Ford debate.

Scary when that happens and you get ads like that

Thanks to all.

Went to Sam's and purchased.

Craig and Derry are GREAT.

Probably cheaper out there, but cheap doesn't always do it.
