as long as you are in an upright position they work well, for all other positions they are uncomfortable. they do work well for the sound part but the design is not worth the money. should have beed designed as ear muffs. these are uncomfortable and become annoying after a short while.
Now all I hear is static when I switch it on. Finally, after months of a bad connection (where I had to tap the circuit in the bottom of the headset until I heard sound), my TV Ears suddenly ceased to function. I wonder how often this has happened, because when I call 1-888-TV3EARS or their HELP # (866-611-9944), the greeting I get is "MAILBOX IS FULL." And I wouldn't be so foolish as to pay the company $99 (per their "Lifetime Service Guarantee") for a new TV Ears System. First I had problems fitting the headset "just so" in the cradle so it would charge correctly. Then I noticed that they became very uncomfortable in my ears after about 30 minutes.
I would recommend the product. We helped my dad get the unit hooked up and he seems very happy. He is also very happy he no longer has to mess with a hearing aid while watching T.V.
They work well for me directly in the ears also. I wear behind the ear hearing aids and can hook the ear pieces by the aids and hear well. Don't look further, they don't come better.Now I enjoy tv again.Bill in Calif. TV Ears Original are by far the best listening device I have tried. I am VERY hard of hearing and have tried many types, including expensive head sets and find TV Ears is way out front of all.
Amazon.com had the best price. Even if the viewing room is quiet, she wears the "ears" to improve the sound for her. My wife has need of hearing help. It does work as described and voice frequencys are enhanced. A GREAT device. A hearing aid does NOT do it for TV sounds. She had the chance to try one of these "ears" at a friends home and was so helped that we bought a set for her.
