Kirkland Signature

Over the past few years, Costco has become a popular hearing aid retailer, offering customers the choice of several makes and models, including its own brand of hearing aids.

When you think of the American retailer Costco, you may think of warehouse stores and bulk-buy retail at discounted prices. But what will probably not come to mind is hearing healthcare. However, since the retailer introduced hearing aids in 1989, Costco has successfully built a hearing healthcare network.

Kirkland hearing aid reviews

Kirkland Signature is Costco’s own in-house hearing aid brand, currently manufactured by Sonova, owners of the hearing brand Phonak. The Kirkland hearing aid range has been able to effectively utilise the Sonova Sword chip to power the communication system of the brand’s latest model, the Kirkland 9.0. This communication system has ensured the Kirkland Signature range can offer a host of features such as three manual and nine automatic programmes, 20 channels for tuning and adjustments, Bluetooth connectivity, four power levels, receiver-in-canal technology and a TV connector.

While the Kirkland line of hearing aids may be considered to be a value brand, it certainly competes with other leading hearing aid brands. The Kirkland Signature 9.0 is a powerful and reliable receiver-in-ear (RIC) hearing aid that has built on the success and technology of its predecessor, the Kirkland Signature 8.0 hearing aid. Offering premium power and technology, reliability and style the Costco Kirkland Signature hearing aid allows users to enjoy a natural, comfortable and discreet listening experiences.
