Reizen Mighty Loud Ear 120dB Personal Sound Hearing Amplifier with Earphones and Extra Headphones

Works Great for elderly or anyone having trouble hearing

Fast delivery. The only problem is that there is no tone control. Only a volume control. Tone is rather tinny. But otherwise works well.

This product is something we saw the gray version of in the hospital, they seemed popular but always seemed off. So we bought the twenty dollar more expensive version, and just out then to use. Then we noticed there was not much improvement so we tested them on ourselves. Obviously we should have done that first because their : quality is horrible, for 9$ u get better headphones, they are scratchy sounding and less clear that a voice The max volume is not much louder than a normal voice is, if it is louder at all Below maximum volume is quieter than the voice We had not checked the product and have now found by simply using them ourselves that this product is just terrible and distorted and a kind of abuse of people who need them. Unless this is a “defective” product or a “lemon” We are trying our third set of batteries to see if it is just us. But if not we will be returning these. —- update So changing the battery did nothing. However pulling the earphone jack out a little about a quarter of the way makes it work. So putting it in fully does nothing. This is a faulty jack

In order to turn the volume up you need to roll the dial down, and to turn it down you have to roll the dial up - which is totally backwards! My dear 82 year old mother has memory issues and constantly rolls the dial in the wrong direction. So she turns it up when she's trying to turn it down, and when you turn it up too high you hear annoying feedback. Otherwise, she can hear better with this gadget than she can with her $3K hearing aids! I'm so glad I bought it for her! Now we can have a conversation without me having to yell (as long as she has the volume up!)! The headphones were too big for her head and couldn't be adjusted any smaller so I bought her a smaller pair that plugged right in and work great with the little box (microphone).

I ordered these as a gift, and I think it would have worked better with a different type of head set.

My handicapped brother is deaf. A man of few words, he refuses to wear hearing aids. He doesn't like anything inside his ears. But when we got the head phones with microphone, we began to talk. I went slowly because he's not used to being able to hear. Therefore only 10 minutes a day, then 15, etc. I speak in a normal voice. He responds in a normal voice. I marked with red pen the volume he likes. Our conversations now are such a pleasure. This Reizen Mighty Loud Ear has opened up a whole new world for us.

too much static; clarity is not very good. i returned the item.

it is cheaply made and not sure how long the barterirs will last nut… my 95 yesr old mother loves it. She can actually carry on a conversation… much better than her hearing aid.
