Three plus years and still going
on May 12, 2018
Posted by: Everyday Journey

I have been using this product for years now for lawn care (professionally). I have even made my own review about them for others to see. They are great for keeping out the unwanted noise but not so great that you can’t still hear some things (like screaming or other important things). These things have paid for themselves many times over and when they finally do stop working, for what ever the reason, I will buy another pair. I might look at the other models to see if my needs for options have changed, but I will be buying this brand again. No need to even look elsewhere. Would love to hear from 3M for a few questions though. Just in case anyone is listening :)
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good sound, good reception
on June 28, 2019

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These do a great job of blocking out the sound, and the FM reception on them is pretty good. It is a little hard to get used to the functions of all of the buttons, but once you are able to know which knob to turn or button to push, it works very well. There's quite a bit of a learning curve to it, and I suggest you keep the paperwork/cheat sheet that comes with them handy until you learn what button does what.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Ok performance - sucks batteries
on April 13, 2020
Posted by: Mainiac DanO
from Minneapolis, MN
I am using my second pair of these. The first operated very well and after several years The ear seals cracked and one of the speakers stopped working. So, I bought a new pair. When they work - they are ok as it is difficult to stay on one station, and I need to put in new batteries each time I use them. It seems to use battery charge when sitting on the shelf.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great features 3M Hearing Protector with Radio
on September 1, 2020
Posted by: Ocala200
from Ocala, Florida
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like. The AM/FM radio sounds great. You can auto-scan, save favorite stations or plug into your smartphone. The Noise Reduction worked great. Perfect for working in the shop or mowing the lawn, or vacuuming home or car. Stops those awful noises! Controls are easy to operate even with gloves on.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Battery drains even when turned off
on September 9, 2020
Posted by: Phil27
from Auburn, NY
These work great, IF I remove the batteries after each use. If I leave the batteries in they drain completely within 2 weeks (even when I double-check that the unit is turned off). Seems like something is wrong.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
