is it good for the hard of hearing

It has a high volume setting which is good for my husband since he has tinnitus from military service.

my husband is profoundly hard of hearing and cannot understand anything recorded. more volume does not help. this machine is loud and clear to me with normal hearing. i wish it would beep when there is a new message or quit blinking when there isn't one because i forget to check the numbers for new messages. otherwise it is excellent.

I'm not a doctor so not sure if it works for "hearing impaired". I guess it depends on how impaired your hearing is. I know you can turn the volume up much louder than is comfortable for me. Hope this helped :-)

Sorry I don't have a better answer. It's pretty loud but not specifically designed for the hearing impaired.

This device works beautifully for the hearing impaired. You will be amazed at the clarity of speech and song. I highly recommend it.

I'm hard of hearing. So, it's hard to tell. But the Maxi allows you to select different tones where you are comfortable with, and you can adjust the volume (this is a global setting) for that. So, I'll just say YES. This is a very good tool, especially for me who has been very disappointed with hearing aids.

I don't think this would be what you are looking for. I can hear it but can't make out parts of what are being said and I only have minor hearing loss.

I think so. My Dad has partial hearing loss and he hears it. There are several tunes and noise choices so, I feel there are some that would hit the pitch you can hear.

My husband also has a hear deficiency. He can hear the TV a lot better. It is very clear for him. He really enjoys it.

Yes the sound is good and clear. I used it while I was on my eliptical and the only problem I had is that it wouldn't get loud enough.

Yes, It may be the best phone for you that you have ever used. I am very hard of hearing and I love this phone.

I would say yes. My hearing thanks to the Army isn't that good and I can hear pretty well, but it really depends on your comfort level

Yes, but you may want to turn down the volume. Husband is hard of hearing so ours is turned up. He has no problem hearing and understanding.

Being that I don't wear a hearing aid, it's hard to say if this phone would work for someone that is hearing impaired. The speaker is adjustable, but I can't adjust it while I'm on a call. For this reason I wouldn't recommend it. Unless you get a really good deal on it.

Although my hearing is going bad, it is not that bad. The volume is adjustable and you should be able to make it loud enough on the handset, in my opinion. We occasionally use the speakerphone feature and also find that to be very loud, but adjustable.

The watch is not suitable for the hearing impaired because the alarm in not particularly loud. My husband, whose hearing is only slightly impaired, usually ignores the alarm. I am the one who is alerted when the alarm goes off - so it works for us.

I would think if you are actually hard of hearing it is probably not loud enough for you. I only have this one so I can't recommend something else.
