Great Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had this product for a week now. Reception is really great.Blocks out external noise perfect. The only this I miss like my really old 3M ones have is the preset button.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Enjoy music while working

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these 3M Digital Worktunes Hearing Protector and AM/FM Stereo Radio headset in exchange for my opinion and review. First of all, this headset is durable and hugs my head well. The ear cushions are comfortable and it cancels out most outside noise. I do wish the headset was a bit smaller as it is quite bulky. Another thing I like about these headphones is the automatic 2 hour shut off when there’s no activity within 2 hours. This saves battery life so I appreciate that. I prefer these to be rechargeable instead of batteries. I am currently using rechargeable batteries. Having both options would be best as charging takes time whereas refilling batteries allows for quicker use. However, batteries cost extra especially rechargeable ones. On this headset I am able to store up to 25 am stations and 25 fm stations. I have found at least 28 fm stations and already stored about 12. Recall mode allows me to listen only to my stations stored with a touch of a button. The volume on this device isn’t as loud as I would like but it is better for the ear drums. Because it cancels out loud noises around, I can hear the music very well. I could enjoy listening to my music while using my loud blender and also mowing my lawn. I would recommend these headphones especially if they were less bulky and maybe a little lower price.

Used to work great but now says all new batteries
on October 10, 2021
Posted by: Joe70
My headphones were comfortable and worked great. They still look brand new. They worked a long time for the first couple battery changes but now it says every new battery is empty and shuts off. I have tried about 10 new batteries of 3 different brands. None will make them work. They are now useless.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Same as Joe below, less than six months old,
They worked a long time for the first couple battery changes but now it says every new battery is empty and shuts off. I have tried three new sets of batteries. None will make them work. They are now useless.

Drains batteries when off
on September 26, 2015
Posted by: Mike
from Central Illinois
The battery life seemed short. I used rechargeable at first. They were dead when I went to use them again. I switched to regular batteries blaming the recharged ones. After two sets of regulars I now take the batteries out when not in use. It seems to drain power even when turned off. I had a set before that worked for years. This new style isn't cutting it. I'll find another brand next summer. Maybe for Christmas!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

They served me well!
on August 17, 2018
Posted by: acclay11
They lasted 2 1/2 years until the sealing rings started to degrade. Eventually got too annoying to use with the plastic biting into my ears. I'd keep using them if I could find replacement parts.

A little disappointed
on December 12, 2019
Posted by: Great Dane

I have had several sets of worktunes over the years. They work well at keeping equipment noise and unwanted chatter at bay. Being a self-employed contractor sometimes you just need to get the job done. My issue with the new series of headphones is that I have lost the tuning knob on not one but two sets. Hired my nephew and did not want him to go deaf so I got him a set. Both sets have lost the knob.
