- Rhett V. , 35 yr old maleI have recommended these to everyone I come in contact with whether they need them or not and I even bought a set for my grandmother. If you’re on the fence as to whether or not to get these, please know that this will be the single greatest purchase in your life. You absolutely will not regret it.

- Chris B. , San Francisco, CAThe GHI hearing aid was supposed to be my back up instrument since I was concerned that if my Widex 440 Mind instrument was lost or damaged I would just have to tough it out. As it turns out I like the Simplicity HIFI 270 much more, and the Widex has been relegated to 2nd place.

- LAD , Albany, NYThe best prices on the planet for digital and analog instruments that won’t send you to the poor house. 90 days to see if they work or need another type of device. I highly recommend General Hearing if you’re capable of troubleshooting fit and finish to suit your needs. They will help you work it out so you can hear again!

- Eddie W , North CarolinaJust wanted to let you folks know what a great product you have. After having tried other devices at price ranges between $3300 and $7000, I’m floored that your Simplicity OTE performs better than any of them at less than $1000.
