As my mother gets older her hearing is more challenged. She doesn't need high cost hearing aids, just hearing support to capture the entire conversation. I purchased these because they were affordable and I felt she could use them with ease. She changed them upon arrival and followed the directions which were very easy to read %26 understand. She found the best fitting ear bud and put them into her ears. After a few adjustments, she was good to go! She felt the sound quality was optimal, without feedback. The TV is lower and she's not missing half of the conversion. She will continue to adjust over the next couple of days so gain her perfect fit and sound. We are all happy! Mostly, shes happy. They are easy to use, give her confidence and we didn't break the bank! If someone is looking for an affordable hearing device, I suggest you give these a try!
