In the Ear Hearing Aids with LED Charging Case$249
Hearing aid or amplifier?
Louder is not clearer.
It is the first worry people write about: a cheap device that turns every sound up, so the dishwasher is as loud as the voice across the table. The answer is in the processing the maker lists, so here it is for this one.
This model, in the maker's words
- Sound processing Digital chip
- Noise reduction Noise reduction
- Whistle (feedback) control Howling prevention
- Channels Not listed by the maker
When a maker does not list a feature, we write so rather than guess. If you need a figure confirmed before you order, write to support@prestonsupply.com.
Will it last the day?
One charge, set against your day.
The battery that gives up by dinner is the second thing buyers write about. Here are the maker's hours on a real day. Move the slider to the time you get up.
- The maker's figureMore than 30 hours of use per charge
- ChargingCase with an LED display, 2 to 3 hours for a full charge
- The case refills them 6 to 8 times
Hours are the maker's figures, as published. We have not tested them ourselves.
Will people see it?
In the bowl of the ear, nothing behind it.
It sits in the bowl of the ear. From the side, the face of the hearing aid shows; behind the ear, nothing does.

Wear glasses? This style leaves the space behind the ear free for them.
Fit and comfort
Will it stay put, and will it whistle?
On a behind the ear model with 741 ratings on Amazon, fit is the third thing buyers write about, after sound and battery. Here is how this one is held in place, in the maker's words.
-
How it is held
No left or right: either hearing aid fits either ear, with earplugs in three sizes.
-
Three sizes in the box
Start with the middle size. If it feels loose or it whistles, try the next size up.
-
If it whistles
A whistle is feedback: sound from the speaker reaching the microphone again. This model lists howling prevention, in the maker's words. Raise the volume one step at a time.
Still not right for you? It goes back within 14 days of delivery. How the 14 days work
Buying it for mom or dad?
So it does not end up in a drawer.
The worry we read most from sons and daughters: they will not get on with it. Here is what they will have in their hands, and how to get them through the first evening.
-

Adjustable volume, in the maker's description. No tiny batteries to change: it charges with its case with an LED display.

The first evening, on the phone with them
Charge it fully first (2 to 3 hours). Put it in place following the maker's guide, then start at a low volume in a quiet room and raise it one step at a time.
Try them at home
Your 14 days, from the box to the decision.
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind. Here is how to use them.

-

Dinner with the family, the television, the phone. Wear it a little longer each day.
-

The price question
Why $249, and what it does not include.
A clinic price pays for a service
- A hearing test
- A professional fitting, set to your test
- Follow-up visits to adjust it
Here, $249 buys the device
- A pair, as the maker built it, with the maker's settings
- Free shipping to all 50 states, import duty included
- 14 days at home to change your mind
No hearing test and no professional fitting are included.
See a doctor first if
- Your hearing changed suddenly
- It changed in one ear only
- The loss is severe

Questions
Before you order.
Will they whistle?
Whistling comes from feedback. Two makers list a fix for it: howling prevention on the in the ear model, howling suppression on the bone conduction headset. Start at a low volume and raise it one step at a time.
How long does shipping take?
7 to 11 business days in total. Two to three business days to pick, check and pack your order, then five to eight business days in transit. Every order ships free to all fifty states and Washington DC, with no minimum.
What if it does not suit them?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind. Wear them at home; we take them back clean and complete, with the charging case, dock or cable and every accessory, in their packaging. Write to support@prestonsupply.com with your order number and we reply with the address and the instructions within one business day.
What if it arrives damaged?
Photograph it before you do anything else (the fault, the label and the box) and send the three images to support@prestonsupply.com within 48 hours of delivery, with your order number. We do not ask you to return a faulty item before we act on it.
Will there be import duty to pay?
No. The price you see includes the applicable import duty, so nothing is due on delivery. Sales tax, where it applies to your state, is shown at checkout before you pay.
Can I send it straight to my parent?
Yes. Enter their name and address as the shipping address at checkout. The tracking number comes to your email the moment the parcel leaves us.
