The ones I got from Costco are pretty effective but the technician there fitted me with Phillips hearing aids. They go into the ear but have a flexible retaining plastic wire that wraps around the ear to stop it falling out.
Loss of hearing can contribute towards dementia. Good hearing is important to quality of life.
No regrets getting them.

This!
I'm also a Costco customer, Getting them changed my life, had no idea how much I was missing and making people around me miserable with asking them to repeat themselves and me talking so loud.
