I was pleased to find hearing aid batteries in the size I need at Sam’s, and at a great price!! They provide the power needed for the expected operation time. I recommend these.

The batteries are good and the price is great, but the packaging sucks! Have a pair of scissors handy to cut the plastic between each battery.

Very hard to get out of packet. Have to cut with scissors.

These batteries work great and the price is good. The packaging is horrible! You need scissors to cut open each individual battery. Who carries scissors at all times? Luckily I had an old package before they started the child proof packages and I open mine up at home and put them into old packages. I know it’s not only old people wearing hearing aids, but this packaging is awful for any age.

The packaging is terrible, having to cut open to get the batteries out is absurd. The plastic also needs to recyclable. Much prefer packaging that rotates to an open slot.

This packaging is too difficult to open. I know it’s supposed to be a means of child proofing, but the majority of users (the elderly) are not children, but they experience similar challenges that children experience such as exerting the amount of strength needed to open this packaging as well as hand coordination. I watched my elderly 88 year old parent struggling while opening her hearing aids so I took it from her to assist her and I struggled to open it as well. This packaging presents challenges for the people who need it most - the elderly.

Batteries are very difficult to remove from packaging. Removing batteries can cause serious hand injury from knives and scissors used to remove batteries. Fix the packaging problem and fire the person that thought the dangerous packaging was a good idea.

This is the first time I’ve purchased this specific package of batteries and was surprised to find how difficult it is to open each battery compartment. You need good cutting tools to get it open. I always carry extra batteries when I go out and not sure how I am going to open it without also carrying some good cutters/scissors. I see that other reviewers have the same issue - please change the packaging Sam’s.

The PACKAGING is ABSOLUTELY AWFUL!!!!!! extremely hard to cut through each card to get to the batteries. AND. You have to CUT EACH one out. You can't just cut one and then turn the plastic to reveal the battery. Who ever thought up this design was not thinking. This actually hurt my thumb trying to cut through the card and plastic over and over. It is infuriating. I have low blood pressure, i can only imagine the spike in blood pressure for those of you who have high blood pressure. I will NOT purchase again and do not recommend. SAMS...SOMEONE FROM YOUR COMPANY NEEDS TO CHECK THESE OUT.

The batteries work fine - once you get them out of the tamper proof packaging. The batteries are contained in a hard plastic shell that requires a lot of effort with scissors to open. Do not recommend for anyone who has limited hand strength or dexterity.
