10 year aid user now a very happy Elehear user
I have used hearing aids since 2016 and second set needed to be replaced a few weeks ago. The average of the 2 sets i have had was about $3,100 each. The company had went out of business forcing me to search for another audiologist and brand. I knew OTC hearing aids were improving so I thought I would take a look. Elehear popped up as number one on many searches so they were on my radar. Most of the reviews were from first time hearing aid users so they had nothing else to compare. Coming off using $3k hearing aids I figured I should get the high end Beyond Pro. At $640 out the door and 45 days to try them it was an easy decision. Coming off using $3K hearing aids for almost 11 years I didn't have high expectations for $600!aids. I was willing to sacrifice some things considering the price delta but I knew 2 days after wearing them they were great. I had to experiment with ear domes to get the right sound. I also needed a linger wire and a size 3 set was sent free of charge. The app works better and the music/phone streaming is better than my old $3K aids. I have them in ~16 hours a day and have no issues with battery life. I sacrificed no features or sound quality, they are actually better, and would not trade them for my old ones.
