1. Are these real hearing aids or just amplifiers?
These are REAL hearing aids. They are FDA registered and cleared OTC hearing aids. This means they meet strict FDA requirements for safety, effectiveness, and labeling. These are NOT amplifiers. They are in every way, by definition, true hearing aids.
2. Is this an American company?
Yes, Gratitude Hearing is a small American family business, operated out of Florida and New York. All of their customer support staff is American and speaks English clearly.
3. If I return them, do I ship to China?
NO, this is not a scam like other offers you might have encountered before. This is an American company that ships all hearing aids out of their facility in Florida, and all returns are shipped to their other location in New York.
4. Will they whistle?
All hearing aids can technically whistle because they are made up of a speaker and microphones. If you've ever been to a concert and experienced "feedback", that's exactly what happens with hearing aids. So, any speaker and microphone are capable of having feedback. The way that you STOP hearing aids from whistling is by finding a dome that completely seals the ear canal, and working with Gratitude Hearing's customer support over the phone to adjust the fitting until there's no more feedback.
5. I have more questions, how can I contact them?
Their friendly support staff is more than happy to answer any questions you may have, just email them at support@gratitudehearing.com or call (347) 491-7763.
