Summary: Hazardous
Comment: I wrote a thesis on low-cost hearing devices and I tested this one among others. I found that it is hazardous to your hearing and can potentially cause damage to your hearing, rather than help you hear better. The thing that irks me the most is that people think this instrument will protect them against gunshot noise (the supposed "noise suppression") and in reality, you can do more damage to your hearing wearing this instrument, than wearing nothing at all. Please, folks, leave this one and any other low-cost (<$100) devices alone. They are a waste of your money, do not follow FDA regulations, and can potentially damage your hearing.

Summary: Good product
Comment: A very good hearing aid devise, which I bought it for my dad and he is very satisfied with it.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Hearing is believing
Comment: Works as advertised. You can hurt your brain if you turn it up too loud.
Seemed to work best at close range, so I don't think I could have heard a sound at 100 feet any better??

SSI Mini Hearing Aid with 5 Levels of Volume Control (Batteries Included) (Purchased on 08/17/2007)
Customer Rating:
Summary: Awful!
Comment: Admittedly, this hearing device is advertised as an asset in stalking deer, as you presumably could hear a deer rustling around 100 feet away. I hate hunting, but the volume control I thought might help me in everyday affairs.The device is khaki- colored, it looked black in the illustration.
1. after one spurt of loud volume the unit died completely.
2. the ear bud wouldn't stay in my ear, tried all three sizes.
3. the volume control is very hard to turn, and I don't get how they can say the unit has five levels. But after one try none of the volume levels work. The damned thing is dead even with a brand new battery supplied with the unit. Yes, the instrument was turned on.
4. the tube connecting the ear plug and the control unit is too long.This could be cut, but since the device doesn't work anyway I will not bother.
If you are a deer hunter and a man with a large ear, maybe this will be useful to you, that is, if it works.
This is the only time in many years of ordering Amazon stuff that I've given a one star rating.I should have known that at $11.64 plus postage you are not going to get a sophisticated instrument, but even at that price one does not expect the device to conk out immediately.
