Costco Kirkland Hearing Aid Translator

Find out which manufacturer actually made your Kirkland Signature hearing aid, what the current equivalent is at Costco today, and which replacement domes, wax filters, and receivers fit.

The canonical answer to "who makes Kirkland hearing aids?" — compiled from HearingTracker, HHTM, Hearing Review, and primary press releases from Sonova, GN ReSound, and WS Audiology.

Pick your Kirkland Signature model

The KS number is printed on the bottom of each hearing aid. If you can't read it, check the original receipt or Costco app order history.

Pick a generation above to see who actually makes it, what the current equivalent is, and which replacement supplies fit.

What this tool doesn't do

This is informational. It can't tell you whether your specific hearing aid is still under warranty (that depends on your Costco purchase date), and it can't predict service availability at your local warehouse. For warranty questions, contact your Costco hearing aid center directly. For service on Sonova-made KS9/KS10 units (the line Sonova exited Costco on November 18, 2022), Costco continues to honor the 3-year warranty and provides out-of-warranty repairs at approximately $200 for battery replacement.
