Review on Banglijian Rechargeable Ziv-201 Hearing Aid: Digital Noise Reduction, Feedback Cancellation – Small Size (2 Units) by Alvis Minchenko

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Helpful for a home hospice patient who couldn't get a regular hearing aid fitting

Bought one of these for my mother who hadn't gotten around to getting fitted for hearing aids before she went unexpectedly into home hospice care for a previously unknown cancer diagnosis. There was no real point to trying to get an audiologist to make an in-home visit at this stage, but still wanted to give her better ability to converse with visitors, so this has worked decently and affordably for that. She does say she hears a constant "frying sound," and I'm not sure what that is, maybe just ambient room noise from the air pump on her mattress. It does "whistle" if she puts her hand up to it, or that side of her head turns onto her pillow. So, not great in that sense, but does the job well enough for something only needed a few months. I bought this one because of the good reviews. A little confusing with the parts and pieces to fit it, but we figured it out.

Pros
  • Its small size makes it discreet and easy to wear, making it perfect for both casual and formal occasions
Cons
  • May require frequent adjustments or reprogramming for optimal performance
