[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this from 3M for no charge, after using it I though it is very bulky but a wonderful product and convenience.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great ear muffs, bad battery draw

I bought these a little over a year ago to use when on my tractor or sawmill. They will NOT cover up the sound of your equiptment. I consider that a good thing. You need to be able to listen to your equipment. They worked great until a few months ago when they seemed to develop an electrical draw even when off. If i don't remove the batteries, they are dead after 2 days.

perfect but for one little thing

This headset is almost perfect. Music quality, Bluetooth ability, auto power off after 2 hours all fantastic.
There is no microphone, when you have your phone paired up to a headset these days you normally expect to be able to answer calls using the headset/mic combo. but given that these are expected to be used in very noisy areas.... not really sure this one is a grip, more of a level set.
The only gripe I have which admittedly are small are:
Batteries, 1 It doesn't come with batteries. 2. on 3M's site OR anywhere I have looked (spent 3 hours looking) I can't find which, to quote from the Manual, "Li-Ion rechargeable battery pack" fits the headset. Is it simply some AA Li-ION batteries? going to try that next.

Do what they are made for.

I bought these to replace my old walkman since its volume was getting finiky and would either go full volume or nothing. I need something thats not going to blast my ears I already have hearing loss from being younger and stupid listing to radio turned full tilt. These so far have worked great, block loud noise like mowers, weedeaters, blowers and still hear the music but don't have to be loud and cause more damage to my hearing. Easy to program stations, or change stations without taking them off. Voice assist is a very nice feature.
Two drawbacks one if wearing safety glasses or sunglass the padding pushes on the glasses and starts to hurt the side of my head right above my ears, another drawback and could be me being picky when setting your own stations, they will not preset in the order I set them after a certion number of stations are stored. I like setting my stations in a order I know and in groups like country in a group, rap in a group so I know where the stations are without scrolling through every station. So I will have to delete some stations to get a order list stored.
Overall so far I like this unit, works like it suppose to, hear music over loud noises, just want to be able to store station in the order I save them in.
I would recommend this to a friend!

So far so good

My Husband and I both have one each, had them for a while..... I think ours aren't Bluetooth though or voice control. But we love ours.
I do however need a part....my station control knob fell off somewhere in our 5 acres yard while I was mowing....not to be seen again since. I just want a new knob for it.
These two have been a Blessing for us while we mow and for the weed eating too
Please let me know where to acquire a new knob !

Nice Unit, Eats Batteries

3rd Worktunes headset. This set is a bit more advanced than my previous ones, Bluetooth, etc. I have used these 3 or 4 times a week for about 3 months and have noticed that it is draining the batteries. I have put in about 4 pairs of fresh batteries!! Seems to drain them even when not in use! What is wrong with this headset? I will go back to using my old ones that were much cheaper and ran much longer on a pair of batteries.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
