Great but requires maintenance
By Amy
We have used this product for our young daughter's hearing aids for 2 years. It has been great. It removes moisture extremely well. When I remove the hearing aids after a 'cycle' they are so dry that any small amount of wax just flakes right off. She has never had an ear infection and has never had a problem with her hearing aids functioning. Once she dropped them into the bathtub and I immediately put them in the D&S and they were good as new when I took them out. We also use it to store her FM boots. It even saved one of our cell phones when it got wet. :)Now, the bad - you have to purchase the bricks of dessicant - for us they seem to last quite a while and the fan helps dry out the hearing aids even if the dessicant is old. Secondly, the unit itself has 'broken' before - but the company fixed it and returned it to us. We are now having another problem with the unit starting and I am wondering if I need to buy a new one or if it is covered under warranty.Bottom line: it's a GREAT product but requires the purchase of non-rechargeable dessicants. we seem to have had some functioning problems but not sure if this is indicative of all dry & stores.

huh? what ya say?
By W. Poandl
I have had this for several months now and have had no problem with it at all. True, you do have to replace the Desiccant brick every couple of months which is less than $30 a year. I also noticed that battery life is extended a day or 2 more than before I started using this. During the summer I would have problems with intermittent operation due to perspiration but this pretty much solved that problem. Considering the cost of good digital hearing aids, I think this is an excellent investment that improved my overall hearing aid experience.

Fantastic Product
By Randy
I am a 33 year old career firefighter. I am very tough on my hearing aids. I subject them to temperature and humidity extremes. I am not much nicer to them when I am not at work, whether it be working outside in the yard, or having fun. The Dry and Store Global II was recommended by a friend of mine who's son keeps his cochlear implant modules in one at night.It has been the BEST single purchase I have made in caring for my expensive hearing instruments.Hearing instrument by their very nature are expensive. I am perfectly happy to spend a couple bucks each month on the little desiccant bricks to take care of them. These even have a little indicator to tell you when they need replaced.This unit even has a UV light to aid in de-germing the hearing aids each time you put them in to sleep.I would highly recommend this item to anyone who has hearing instruments.
