Great option when you don't want Bluetooth

I bought the quiet comfort ear phones in grey and I love them. I like having ear phones that do not require Bluetooth. I had an older model of these from back in the day that were even more sound blocking and smaller, but these work for me. They are not meant to sleep in, but you can relax in flight with them comfortably.
First pair I've purchased for myself, I love them. Had tried out friends' before and wasn't sure about them - the noise canceling feature seemed to give me headaches but these have been great so far. Being able to switch between the aware and quiet easily is a nice touch. Sound is great, battery lasts much longer than I expected.
I like everything EXCEPT the noise of things like steam, water running, etc in the background can be heard like horrible static in the headphones. People I"m talking to on the phone say the background traffic noise s so loud they can't talk to me, or water running is too loud for them to hear me even though it's all "normal". When I use a steamcleaner that's quite loud, I used to listen to podcasts with headphones on and now I can't bc these new ones are almost too good----the reception is too loud.
Purchased refurbished headphones about a month ago and can’t say that I’m blown away by the sound quality. First issue is that sound seems flat- like I can’t get enough treble (to my liking),secondly I find that when I touch the outside of the headphones a static sound appears and effects the sound quality. Have a feeling it has something to do with noise cancellation feature but pretty disappointing considering price point. Regrettably I would have to say knowing what I know now I probably would NOT have purchased.
