K19 Hearing Aids, Rechargeable Hearing Aids to Assist Hearing for Seniors Adults, Mini Completely-in-Canal Digital Hearing Devices with Noise Cancellation, OTC, Pair

I recently bought the iBstone Rechargeable Hearing Aid, Mini Completely-in-Canal Hearing Amplifier for Seniors with Noise Reduction, Pair, Beige on Amazon, for $149. I want to say what an amazing product this is. But first, I am in my 70’s and quite deaf, in fact my doctor said I was deaf as a post! Family life was getting difficult and my wife was having to repeat things, annoying her and me. At meetings at work I found it hard to follow most of what was being discussed. I would often mistake what people said as something else – sometimes quite humorous, but not what makes for easy living. I am used to wearing in-canal hearing aids. For several years I used the brand sold by Walmart, at first just in my left ear, and these worked pretty well, but as my hearing got worse I was having to turn up the volume to full, which gave a lot of feedback and whistling. In the end I gave up. The Walmart aids were $450 for each side. So when a buddy bought the iBstone pair for a much better price I was tempted and started reading the reviews. A lot of what people said made sense, some of it I’d not considered before. So I bought a set. Wow! I unpacked them, turned up the volume and pushed them in. They fitted in my ears pretty good, especially the left one. I could hear! The rattle of my belt buckle, the click of my laptop mouse, were all new sounds. I went outside. There was this strange background noise, a sort of distant humming, all around! What could it be? Then I realized I was hearing the noise of the traffic on the road nearby. I had never heard that for a long time. What all this leads to is that this is a superb product, well packaged and manufactured, a quality feel and a lot of attention to detail and design. For instance the old Walmart aid had a volume control on the outer face which often got turned up too much when fitting the aid in the ear. These aids are flat across the face and you can push them in without changing anything. One important aspect is the confidence these aids give me when with other people. I never had that since I went a little deaf. Now I can hear what they are saying. I can answer with 99% certainty I am on the right subject, can inject some humor into the conversation without the fear that I have missed the point somewhere. So, here’s the run-down: They are small and really fit into the canal. They come with a silicon mushroom cover. The purpose of this is to separate the microphone on the outside from the speaker on the inside, thus reducing feedback completely. It also helps keep the aid in the ear. I find if the aid starts to move out, I get feedback but a quick push and it’s back in and silent again. They stay put in the ear and don’t whistle when I laugh or eat my food. They come with three different cover sizes to adjust to different ear size. I found the smallest was best for one ear with the middle for the other. I bought a box of spares, just in case. You need to be patient with these and adjust the volume and then try the aid for a few hours. The volume adjusts with a small screwdriver which is fiddley and means you can’t adjust it when it is in your ear (unless you have help) but with a few tries you will soon find the right level. You also need to experiment with the position of the aid in the ear. Some people find 5 o’clock, some 7 o’clock works best. Just turn them slightly and try them out. Stretch the ear and work your jaw when putting them in, to help get them properly nested. I thought my hearing was bad but these have given me hope that it’s not so bad after all, because I cannot wear them at full volume – they are too loud! I have them about half way. Oh, and they have rechargeable batteries - another great advantage over my old ones. Fit them into the neat little charger which you can connect to your laptop and take them out when the lights go from red to blue. There is a written warning about over-charging, but you can always buy a timer for a few bucks to monitor this if you want to. Batteries were such a hassle with my old aids. Summary – a great product at a great price!

I have a mild hearing loss of about 15% and these filled the bill for me. I really like the fact that you can adjust the volume easily and that they come with a number of different size ear canal adapters. That makes for a good fit and extra comfort. They charge easily and the charge lasts all day. I think they are a good buy for the money. My husband has a rather severe hearing loss and has been wearing hearing aids for years. His hearing aids had to be sent away for repair so I ordered a pair of these for him to use in the interim. He said they were a great substitute until his were returned. This is a good product that deserves a try!

Bought these in august 2025, and the window to return closed in September 2025. I’m assuming that’s because the manufacturer knew they would only last until December 2025… sort of a nasty thing to do to seniors who can’t afford to keep buying new ones

I bought these for my Dad as a replacement for regular hearing aids that were not working as an affordable alternative. They work great. They are pretty sensitive. He had issues getting the volume control adjusted because the controls are so small, so it needed to be a set it and forget it deal. It can be difficult getting the ear pieces settled into the charger just right but they do charge quickly once seated. Good value for the price.

This is a good hearing amplifier. It fits comfortably and the sound is clear. The volume is controlled by turning a very small screw at the end of the hearing aid; the on/off switch is a very small switch. But even with my old eyes, it is not hard to make the adjustments. I have had no need to change the volume once it was set, and when I turn the amplifier on in the morning I am done. I can pull on a sweatshirt without knocking the amplifier out of my ears and it is pretty much invisible. The ad says it includes noise reduction, but like all I have tried it really does nothing in that regard that I can hear. That is ok since I put it down to advertising exaggeration and did not expect it to be any different from the other hearing amplifiers I have tried.

I recently found that was beginning to have some hearing loss. Went to an audiologist who confired and tried to sell me a $4,000.00 set of hearing aids. Hell are they gold plated? Anyway I started searching for more reasonable options. After a lot of research I came across these. Ordered. They arrived on August 4, 2022. I unwrapped the box and found these to be well made and appeared to fit my needs. I fitted them to my ears and put them on the charger. Later that evening I saw they were charged and started to go about tuning them in. The right ear went fine without any issues, the left however...... It was showing as fully charged but It would not power on.. Ok, let me see if I can get the one just replaced. I tried first by going through amazon, but they on had return as a option. Not optimal. I went through their paperwork and via email got the lovely Winnie. After several mails back and forth, she is going to have anew one shipped to. All in all, a fantastic experience.

I was excited to get these as my hearing has been declining with age. It was easy to get everything set up but I have to say that they are amplifiers, nothing more. The overstimulation is not worth it. For example, typing on my computer is way too loud. Definitely don't want to have them in while using the restroom lol. I guess I will have to wait until I can afford real hearing aids, not just something that merely amplifies.
