I purchased mine in Feb 2016 and use them one day per week. They work pretty good and I believe are made my Siemens, even though they're Kirkland brand. Costco batteries are dirt cheap too.

My 89-yr-old father bought his at Costco, and he is very happy with them. Buying them at Costco saved him a LOT of money, and when the first pair didn't quite fit right, he had no problems getting the problem corrected.

I got mine July of last year. ~$1800 for the pair out the door. Comparable model at audiologist was ~$3000 more. Very happy with what I have and the price I paid. Batteries are a screaming deal at Costco. The test, fitting, and follow up were all top notch. The warranty offered by Costco is great. I recommend them so often I should work there.

hearingaidforums is like here but not as cool and for hearing aids.

I have had a set of Kirkland hearing aids (Resound hearing aids) for 18 months. Very satisfied.

Compare Costco
Warranty
Trial period
Loss Replacement

With other hearing aid centers. You will find deal hard to pass up

Some of the old goats with whom I have breakfast use Costco for their hearing aids, and they agree with these guys-Costco does a swell job at a great price.

I am on my second set of Costco hearing aids. First set was OK, current set is newer technology and they do a better job.

Costco hearing aids are much more affordable and quality is equal to, or better than, anything else available.

Customer service is top notch.

Free cleaning, free replacement domes (the part that actually sticks in your ear) for life.

Batteries at way less than half of what you would pay anywhere else -- 48 batteries for $8.49

I went two weeks for a C&P exam the VA sent me to for hearing loss & tinnitus. I hope I get some hearing aid help from the VA.

I bought my Phonak brand hearing aids at Costco for about $2400. An audiologist would charge about $5000 for the same set.

I've had mine for about a year, I guess. Quoted $4,000 to replace my old ones from a retail source.

Costco offered the ReSound hearing aids for about $1,800. We signed up for the Costco Visa and got 7 months interest free. Not sure if that promotion is still available.

Only "issue" so far is battery life (Kirkland batteries) they only last about three days, Previous hearing aid was about a week.

I have worn hearing aids for over 30 years.

I have had my Costco aids for over 10 years and still working great. Cost savings was about $1000 per ear from specialty retailer. Dispenser was very competent. Free adjustment and cleaning with super cheap batteries.

What is not to like?

My understanding is that Costco hearing aids are a generation behind what you'll get at a specialty shop.

That isn't a huge issue when you consider that manufacturers upgrade hearing aids every couple of years.

The batteries are a great value...getting more important as newer aids use up batteries pretty quickly depending on how "high tech" the models you choose are
