Hearing aids can improve the quality of life for people with hearing loss. There is a range of hearing aid manufacturers to choose from.
This article looks at several different hearing aids manufacturers to find out what they offer.
What to look for in hearing aid brands
Companies often sell hearing aids as part of a bundle, which often includes the following:
the hearing aid
any necessary hearing tests
fitting the hearing aid
further adjustments to the hearing aid
routine cleaning
warranty
To save costs, some companies allow a person to purchase just the hearing aid or a bundle that only contains some of the features listed above. It is often possible to buy one hearing aid rather than a pair.
When choosing a hearing aid manufacturer, people might want to consider:
price ranges and payment plans
quality of products
technological features that are compatible with the hearing aids, such as smartphone apps or remote controls
ease of returns or refunds
whether the company offers hearing tests
additional services such as fitting of the hearing aid or adjustments and repairs
sustainability of the product, e.g., whether rechargeable battery hearing aids are available
