Good Noise reduction, but audio went out.

I have had this set of work dunes for less than a year. My wife uses them while mowing. It is very nice to have the connectivity for music when mowing, but one of the speakers went out. There is only audio out of one speaker.
Over all, they are quite comfortable and they were working quite well. They had very good battery life, but for the price, I expected them to last quite a bit longer.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not worth the cost

I bought them for work. As a landscaper they were great for the first four weeks. I would put batteries in every three or four days however now I'm lucky to get a half a day out of them before it tells me that the battery is dead. Once in a while they will last through the workday then if i don't take the batteries out they will be completely dead the next day. They just don't seem to be worth the money. I have co-workers with lower quality headphones getting much more battery life out of them. Im not even using the bluetooth.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Almost there.....

I love these for work but I've bought 2 pairs now and both pairs within a month the sound started to fade noticeably until it got to where it was turned all the way up and couldn't hear it not sure what the issue is but I wish it would get fixed cause 40 to 50 bucks a month is getting expensive! But when they are new and working properly they are awesome just wish they stayed that way more than a month.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Work around works!

Had my Worktunes for three years and noticed the leaf blower was louder than the Tunes. The Android system8 work around worked and restored the volume levels. Never had any problems with the unit and would probably buy another when the time comes.

Great Sound and Noise Reduction
on January 1, 2019

The only thing is that I would like the Bluetooth to control windows media player or a media player. Other than that It is FANTASTIC. I don't know why people have such negative reviews on here. I can play it just about all day. They should get Panasonic rechargeable batteries to last the longest....

Defective Right Out of the Package

The headphones paired easily, but there is no sound from the left speaker. I see from the reviews that a full 18% rate this device with one or two starts. It's time to work on your quality issues.
I'll exchange this one, and hope for the best.

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. This product is first and foremost a hearing protector and will only get to a certain level of dB. However, with the Safe Volume Control feature on this design, it actually has a higher dB limit on it than our previous model. The only thing we can think of is that you may have it on the lower set dB (limiter), rather than the default Safe Volume Control (Dosimeter). To see if that is it, please use the following steps to set your unit in to the Safe Volume Control (Dosimeter) mode:
1 Unit needs to be off
2 Press and hold Power Button and Center of Tuning Dial together
3 Voice Assist will say, “Settings Menu”
4 Press Center Dial to toggle between menu items.
5 Stop when you hear either, “Dosimeter” or “Limiter” (not “Dosimeter Default Setting”)
6 Turn Scroll Wheel to toggle between “Dosimeter” and “Limiter”
7 “Dosimeter” is the “Safe Volume Control” technology
8 “Limiter” is to be used if you wish to keep the max limit set at 82 decibels
9 Press “Function” key to exit once the desired setting is chosen
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team at 1-800-494-3552 M-F 8am-5pm CT.
