Plastic earmolds are like rocks in your ears First time hearing aid user (3 months). Hearing loss is mild to moderate in high ranges. Luckily I can get by with using the domes (earbuds) only because the hard plastic earmolds are like putting rocks in your ears. I will never wear them! Hearing aid specialist even ground them down some, but they are too uncomfortable to wear. Need a better material than hard plastic.

I was fit with Starkey hearing aids… I was fit with Starkey hearing aids last week and they sound amazing. The service was prompt and they were kind with m questions.

What a waste of money What a waste of money. I have the AI Livio and still paying for it but what a disappointment. The connection with the iPhone keeps dropping - I bought especially an iPhone 13 because I’ve read of others having issues with Android. While watching tv or listening to music suddenly disconnects. In the recent days keeps turning off by itself and cannot turn it on. I keep recharging it but after that it doesn’t turn on as it should. The memories I created for particular environments are on for a few minutes but then it resets to Normal. So frustrating!

Faulty hearing aids Purchased Starkey hearing aids through ihear it was the worst experience in my life, the hearing aids has never worked properly always echoing back into the ear we took them back many times to be repaired when we received them back same issue arose. It's been nearly 5 years and I never used the aids for more than a day they sat in the box.

Needs a lot of work Adequate is probably the best description as to the effectiveness of the Thrive app. It randomly can't find my hearing aids (despite them being next to the 'phone). Volume conrol sometimes only works on one ( but I can control both manually). Other ad hoc bizzare behaviour necessitating uninstalling the app, downloading again and re-setting. Usually works for a few weeks until something else goes wrong...then repeat process. App needs some serious work to bring it to an acceptable, functional level!
