Description
CLAGETT, Associate Judge. Plaintiff bought from defendant a hearing aid and several months later, claiming that it did not
accomplish the purpose for which it was purchased, rescinded the sale and sued to recover the purchase price. The trial Judge,
sitting without a jury, awarded her judgment and defendant prosecutes this appeal. Plaintiff, who has had trouble with her hearing since she was a small child but had never used a hearing aid before, informed
defendant, a dealer in hearing aids with nearly twenty years experience in such work, that she needed a hearing aid for groups
and meetings and classes in connection with her work to make conversations more distinct. She made it clear that her need
was not for increased volume. Before calling upon defendant, she had visited the Washington Hearing Society whose consultant,
after trying four or five earphones, recommended the particular aid and model which was subsequently purchased. Defendant,
at her own suggestion, conducted independent tests of plaintiff's hearing to see if the make and model prescribed was the
proper one and finally sold this particular model as being exactly the right one to accomplish plaintiff's purposes. Plaintiff
requested that she be permitted to try the instrument at her work, offering to pay for its use, but this request was refused.
