Worst machine I have ever seen in my life ..its not working at all.you even can't understand what's going on so much noise in your ears..request don't buy...otherwise totally waste of money.not even a single penny item ...it is as packed as it was delivered.. unusable...waste

I liked it most voice quality is goodWith reasonable price

I bought for my mother but she got irritated while sitting below the fan as it's mic. is at the top of the device and it was generating lots of noise.

It was needed for my father, a senior citizen, profound hearing loss, age related. A very good product in terms of1. Cost: as my father keeps losing his hearing aid machines very often.2. Clarity: the other machines just work as amplifier with lot of buzz when volume is increases. This machine give focus to the hearing content. I have tried on myself before giving to my father.

I purchased this items for my father and went out of town for more than three months. When I returned home he said the machine produces hissing sound so he did not even use it for two days at a stretch. Then I consoled him saying it would be battery issue and I purchased two packs of Siemen’s battery and when I tested the machine with new battery also the same hissing sound came. Then I realised that it’s not the battery issue but machine issue. I mailed to the brand mail id given in the order invoice [email protected] mentioning the issue in detail. No reply came from them after two days again I mailed and no response. So I contacted Amazon and they said there’s no warranty so we can’t raise any ticket and sorry. Now the machine lies simply just to remind me of telling everyone not to buy BRITZGO products at any cost. So viewers if you have any idea of purchasing the product please have a second opinion and buy some other brand.

I had purchased in Aug 24.It has a very noisy hiss at first mode. Noise reduces at higher modes, but voices also reduce & difficult to hear properly at higher modes. Voice quality is not natural & background clutter also gets increased & mixed up.My hearing aid died in July. So expect maximum life of 1 year if you get a good piece.

Lo

So it came this Afternoon. A little background-I went totally deaf at the age of 7. Did not start wearing a hearing aid until I was 12 or 13. I've had some very good ones and some really crappy ones-my latest came from Beltone, not a top-of-the-line model. I am on Disability due to vision problems, a stroke and having had complete Renal failure due to Diabetes since I was 22mos old. I'm 53 now so I've worn many hearing aids over the years. The Beltone was using 1980's technology-I could hear the waves emitted by the Theft Detectors at WalMart and could hardly carry on a conversation-as it aged over the last four years it got progressivly worse-start out out then an hour or so later it sounded like I had water in my ears. Unfortunately I lost it last week while moving som stuff-a beige hearing aid and brown leaves do not stand apart. So I ordered this-first the price was good and my budget, being minimal allowed for it. I've used Hearing Enhancers in the past with mixed luck. I am 60% deaf on my hearing aid side-other side is gone so this has to make up that percentage of loss. I am very pleased at this point-yes, some noises are harsh-doors slammed or items dropped on the floor can be jarring but overall the sound is very good-better than the Beltone [[and yes, I hope Bektones CEO see this]]. Conversations are clear, headphones with the PC are clear as is the TV. Might be too loud for some but, if you have severe hearing loss as I do it might be a life/Hob saver for you.*Update* Three months in-3 Battery changes. Not something I have ever managed with a standard Hearing Aid, average for those is once a week and I run it on "Hi" and wear it 18hrs a day both in the house and working outside.I did have an issue and they resolved it-suddenly it sounded 'plugged up' or muted. Years of experience with Aids I have all the tools and even a vacuum chamber to remove Debris such as Wax or Grit. No joy on my side. They replaced it in less than a week. Very Courteous service and quick response including Emails on the weekend. Is this going to work for everyone? Certainly not-sort of like driving a Stickshift, however, with a little patience and getting used to it should work for many.Good product and great company providing it.Update:So mine lasted a year. I noticed a couple of months ago it was getting a bit more Muted-some of that is the last battery pack I bought was the cheapest WallyWorld had-don'tDoThat. The decent batteries last a month-cheap ones might last a month but will be pretty bad by then.So I had been planning on buying a few of these for safe-keeping but had not had the funds. Friend gave me an Azon gift card and one item I ordered this past Saturday was another Britzgo. The year old one failed this morning but I think I can fixit-need to open it up and really clean it out and check connctions, no big deal but I was stuck without till 30 minutes ago when my new one got here. Talk about Timing.Oh, I work outside in all sorts of weather and noise conditions and it made a year easilly with all that so-nothing but compliments from me.

I've been wearing a professional (=$$$$) hearing aid in my left ear (Meniere's disease) for over 15 years. Got another professional one for my right ear about 5 years ago. Was pretty satisfied with the left one. Hated the right (newer) one because it had no on/off switch... had to rotate the battery out every time I wanted to turn it off (battery would then proceed to drop out also contact became erratic). When the newer unit eventually failed I was not too sorry to see it go. Some have commented on this unit as problematic in wind due to lack of noise cancelling capability. I had the same problem with my two professional units... hard to hear much of anything when outside on a windy day with the whistling in my ears.The unit under review here seems well made. I does have an on/off switch (Yay!). No indication that it has loop capabilities (e.g. for some phones and theaters) but I seldom used that on my professional units anyway. It's about twice as big as my professional units (but not obtrusive) and I would hardly call the case "Compact" but it does its job and doesn't appear to rely on tiny plastic pins as hinges that break easily (and render the case useless).My one complaint is due to the fact that my ear openings are small and even the smallest of the 3 different-sized ear domes is too large. I've had to create my own by adapting plugs from my now-defunct unit for this. A couple of minor annoyances: 1) The on/off switch goes in the opposite direction of my first unit (seems like they could get a standard for that) and 2) This takes a larger battery than the one size I had used for my 2 professional units (now I have to stock 2 different size batteries).Compared to the professional units this is a real bargain at a fraction of the price (e.g. ~ 2%) and I hear fine with it.

When my old hearing aid developed a short circuit (from another company) it left me with a big problem. Rechargeables simply don't last long enough for me, and I was surprised at how few battery powered options I had. My days run (in ear) 12 hours easy. 4-6 hours on a recharge battery wasn't going to help me. And i've done the switch out routine on rechargeable types. That gets old quick. And you lose them eventually-somewhere!. So I needed one just like the old one. But while I found a lot with batteries, most of them don't have an on/off switch. That means pull the battery hatch cover. That means LOST batteries. Been there-done it. So an on/off switch was a must for me. And i've already had ones that used non amps in the earbud. Those can have a hollow sound. So I needed one also with an amp in the ear. I been using hearing aids for the last 30 years, so I knew exactly what I was looking for. And this fit the bill. The color is more of a pleasing light metallic blue. The rubber is pretty soft and flexible, so getting it to bend around in ur ear isn't much of a problem. After a day or 2, the rubber seems to understand which way you want it to twist. The mushroom earpieces, my advice here is simply to get some ear buds, and use the rubber ear pieces on ur hearing aids. They fit a lot better then the supplied mushroom pieces will. And they don't slip out as easy. But anyway, the hearing aid itself will come essentially at zero sound output. U'll have to crank it up and mess with the mode settings to see which you need. That process took me about all of 5 minutes. And since they seem to come at zero sound, make sure you crank it up first. Most of my hearing aids over the last few years came with some volume at start up, but not this kind. So, before you decide they are broke, you may have to mess with it some. Not worth taking any stars off. Anyone that's had hearing aids knows you have to mess with them a few minutes to find just the right sound level and quality. No big deal. So far the hearing aid, and it's supplied batteries are working pretty well. No issues of sound quality, or battery life. So, overall, a very good hearing aid.

Like many of the other reviewers, I had previously owned a pair of expensive ($1500 each) hearing aids. On one occasion one broke and the repair cost $250. Cleaning the aids always proved to be a problem. They were fragile at the point that you needed to clean. A second one broke recently and I decided to give up on them (there were other issues) and buy something much less expensive. There is a bewilderment of units offered and it was difficult to make a choice. I decided on the Britzgo BHA-220 because of the extraordinarily low price and the generally favorable reviews. I didn’t expect much but was pleased with the unit that arrived. Light weight. Larger, long life battery (hopefully). An On-Off switch (my $3000 pair didn’t have that). It’s true that this device is merely a sound amplifier and not a true hearing aid but for my purposes that made little difference. I asked a few questions of their customer support and received a response the very next day. I have since ordered a second unit and highly recommend them to anyone who is not too fussy about size and appearance (a button shaped Earphone juts out from the ear canal). I have received my second unit so this is an update to my review. It also worked "out-of-the-box". No difficulty and now I truly have stereo capability. I like that whatever volume and program settings you make stay in place even when you turn the unit off. My $1500 units had to be re-adjusted each time I turned them back on.Update: Unfortunately, both pair of these units failed after 17 months of operation. There is a thin wire (looks like a wire) inside the thin, clear tubing that broke in the same location on both devices. Quite fragile. Apparently, after continued use over a year and a half, there is a possibility of this happening. Perhaps I might have been more careful in handling but I'm not sure how that would be possible.A comment: The $1,500 units are just as fragile and, as I reported, they break in time also. Perhaps it is the nature of these small, delicate devices to break down in time.At the price offered, they still are a great buy and though my bad ones are out of warranty, I don't consider it a big problem to get some replacements.

I'll start off by saying that I am a person who has had issues with my ears my whole life, but only in the past year has my hearing become an issue I can't brush off anymore.I'm only in my late 20's but to be told that by the time I'm 30 I'll be completely deaf in my right ear is both scary and frustrating because I rarely use headphones and hate loud sounds so I’ve never been one to blast music in my ears or really at all because loud sounds have always bothered me yet here I am losing my hearing in both ears at different rates; right ear worse then my left for seemingly no reason at all .. Crap genetics mostly are at fault but it still sucks knowing I'm going deaf and there isn’t anything that can be done about it..I got these 1, thinking I was going to get two but only got one and I guess got lucky that the one I did get was for the right ear and 2, hoping these would help while I transition to losing almost all of my hearing in one ear and partially in my other.I don’t have 10k to spend on the hearing aids I need and unfortunately in this economy I can’t even afford the crap insurance that wouldn’t even cover it to begin with so I searched the internet as one does in the hopes of finding hearing aids I could afford.I found some that seemed promising but just didn't have $900 to spend on them.. So I went to amazon and found these.I read the reviews and while mixed I decided to give these “hearing aids” a shot…. I hate them.. I’ll be honest. They do NOTHING but make sounds waaay to laud, so much so I’ve had to turn it all the way down and even yonk it out of my ear because a door being slammed made it scratch like a dying demon in my ear.It does well for picking up every sound but what you need like someone talking to you. I hear the TV in the other room now just fine but still cant hear when someone is right in front of me talking because the TV sound is all the thing picks up.It also has a low static sound that is constant, and no amount of turning it down can turn it off. So for someone like me who already has that static / ringing in my ears without the “hearing aid” it’s more of a distraction and makes hearing even harder..Can’t return them so oh well.. I’ll just have to get a 3rd job to try and get 10k to be able to hear properly.Let this be a lesson to anyone trying to get hearing aids. If you're able, spend the money on the ones your doctor says you need. Don’t waste your time or money on cheap crap off amazon or google links.
