Built well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set of headphones is well built to last in a unforgiving environment. I have used them while working on a sawmill and they have held up well to being dropped and covered with sawdust. They are comfortable to wear and with the built in radio, they are a much better option than a cheaper set without the radio. The noise reduction feature works great and is a must for anyone that works in a noisy occupation.

Wonderful item

I have been using the older model for years now and absolutely love them.. the only problem I am now having is finding the earpad replacements as mine have worn out and the black coating has all flaked away. Without this coating the sponge pieces keep falling out.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Unusable radio, bluetooth buzzes, otherwise nice
on July 30, 2022

I bought this for my son a month ago. It fits well and connects for bluetooth well. Two stars. Bluetooth has a humming in the background that is annoying, trying to listen to online video content and my phone and bluetooth speaker do not give that sound. The worst part of this headset is the radio. It gets great reception and programming it is wonderful. It is the most annoying thing and I will not buy one for myself because I can't turn off the frustrating woman telling me what station I am listening to. You have 3 seconds to pick the station before she starts talking about what station it is. Like trying to play guess this song in 5 notes or less. Get rid of her and the bluetooth buzz, and I might buy my next set from you. Whomever tested this headset needs to not be allowed to test anymore. Please find them a job that they are capable at.

Works Great

I bought the Worktunes last year and they are my favorite hearing protectors. The voice that tells me the station is awesome and saves a lot of time finding new stations. Have had good battery life and I run them hours at a time. I should have bought these years ago.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Comfort and tunes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I selected these headphones for use when I do yard work and cutting the grass or using the weedeater. While it doesn't seem like it at the time, both of these machines can cause hearing loss over time or at least cause an unnecessary annoyance. Upon receiving this item, I was actually surprised at how comfortable they were and how much they muted the outside noise. They really feel like a quality item and produce some pretty good sound from the AM / FM radio. When I am doing the yard work now, I can almost get lost listening to the radio and forget that I am using these power tools. I haven't yet used the MP3 function via external device, so I can't comment on that part. I use rechargeable batteries and the device also has an auto-shut off feature if you forget to turn it off. I did remove a star, as I wish that switching between the channels / modes / presets was more immediate, instead of waiting for the "voice" to tell you what channel / mode you are on. There are times that I switch to something I didn't want because I forgot I had to wait for the voice to finish first. Not really an issue if you use it often, but during the winter I've only had to use it every few weeks or so. Perhaps in the summer, I will get the hang of it. I received this product for free in order to test / use it under the condition of writing an unbiased review afterwards.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sound was good and reception! Even in places I normally don't get reception! They were comfortable! They only reason I gave it 4 stars is it was a little heavy but I wore them for a few hours..

Great Headset.....sad about BlueTooth!
on August 6, 2017
Posted by: Edgar
from Germany and Austria
This is my 3rd worktunes. I like the headset and radio very much. Good quality - which is why i bough my 3rd pair with BlueTooth.....very disappointed to find out that i get no indication of incoming calls once bluetooth is connected and i am in radio mode. This is the feature i expected but sadly this is not how it works.
I would recommend this to a friend!
