Starter or Disposable Hearing Aids: Is it Worth it?
When considering the purchase of inexpensive hearing aids, you can look into starter and disposable hearing aids, as well as wholesale pricing for hearing aids, ‘As seen on TV’ hearing aid devices, and also think about the 'Made in America' label as a reliable way to protect yourself from fraud, low quality, and other issues found in hearing aid products manufactured overseas. While some of the top rated hearing aids brands are manufactured in Europe and Asia, they are quite pricey. So be extra vigilant when purchasing inexpensive hearing aids.
Do Inexpensive Hearing Aids Have Less Quality?
The most frequently asked questions regarding inexpensive hearing aids involve worries about quality and issues of warranties:
- Do I need a prescription or medical exam before buying a hearing aid? It is highly recommended by the US FDA to have a hearing evaluation that includes various hearing tests performed by a qualified audiologist. Signing a waiver of a medical exam and hearing aid prescription is not in your best interest.
- What is the warranty and return policy? Inexpensive hearing aids distributors offer a 90 day warranty and give you 45 days to try using your new hearing aids with a satisfaction guarantee. Beware of the small print as you may be charged extra fees to return the used hearing aids.
- How will I know which brand will work for me? It is important to note that no hearing aid (including the most expensive brands) can restore hearing. You are not buying prescription glasses that will give you 20/20 vision.Hearing aids work differently, and not everyone will benefit equally depending on the type and degree of hearing loss.
- What are the top rated inexpensive hearing aids? You can join various online communities and forums to see what people say about the brands they use. You can also check Amazon for their user ratings.
- Should I use Amazon to find inexpensive hearing aids? Amazon offers a wide selection of fairly inexpensive hearing aids. Make sure to do your own research and consult with an audiologist and hearing instrument specialist before making your purchase. The old adage ‘Better Safe than Sorry’ should apply heavily when your hearing health is concerned.
- Where do I go for hearing aid repairs after the warranty expires? Your hearing aid dispenser will tell you the type of services they offer; usually repairs are included in their price, but you should ask to be sure of their policies.
- What are the accessories and type of batteries I need for my new hearing aids? There are various cleaning and storage accessories you will need to care for your hearing aids. The battery size is specified by the manufacturer, and your hearing aid provider will tell you what size batteries you need to use.
- What if my new hearing aids do not fit my ears? If a custom mold is required, you can visit your local audiologist / hearing aid dispenser. There are also online stores that provide custom molding services.
- What does ‘One-size-fits-most’ mean? Inexpensive hearing aids come in a variety of sizes that fit most adults.
- Should I buy 1 or 2 hearing aids? Generally, it is best to buy 2 hearing aids for the best hearing experience you can have.
