Good hearing protection!

I wore these earmuffs for the better part of a day working with various power tools while working on home projects. The sound quality is very good, and the Bluetooth connection works very well. My only complaint is that the audio cuts in and out depending on where your device that is streaming audio is located. Its not awful, but it does happen. I tried to keep my phone in my right pocket to keep the connection line of sight. When I tried my phone in my left pocket, the connection wasn't as strong, and would cut in and out more often. That all being said, I still really love these earmuffs! Well done, 3M!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Just what I've been looking for

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the WorkTunes. They fit snugly and keep out load noises. Easy to set up and use. Being able to hear my music without having the volume up is great, and I love that I can make and answer calls as well. Really nice product.

They were ok.

I have had these guys for about 3 weeks. I use them for maybe an hour or two each day with some music playing while I work. I do need them a little more to actually muffle sound which for both have been fine... until today 3 weeks in. I paused the music and when I went to play the music again, my phone is connected but the volume is silent. Yes I checked my phone volume which is up and was not altered from 2 minutes prior to hitting pause. I turned my phone off. I told my phone to forget the device and did the pairing process again. I have yet to drop them... Haven't banged them on anything. I treat them pretty darn well. To have them sitting on my head and then this, pretty sad. Good price initially but I think I would have spent double if I knew these would stop working all together. I will end this with some kind of a positive note, the battery itself was very impressive but doesn't mean a lot when they don't play sound anymore.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Too many weird bugs
on February 10, 2018

Pros:
- Good sound quality
- Decent sound isolation saves me from ear-bleeding pain of NYC subway brakes, bus air-release, old-siren ambulences
- Feature that repeats mic input automatically activates in phonecalls

Cons:
- Might have the weakest bluetooth antenna in universe. Walking around, music will stutter or even completely stop with a distance of literally 3-FEET, from the top of my thigh (cell phone sending bluetooth from my pocket) to the middle of my head (these headphones)

- Volume Limiter "Feature" CANNOT BE DISABLED. Especially annoying when listening to music with a high dynamic range - everything will artificially cut off above a certain volume, replacing loud segments of a classical symphony with a jumbled mess that sounds more like passing gas
- The amount of noise these headphones make while walking is staggering. Aside from simple and brushing of plastic on plastic, some internal *knock* can be heard inside when the headphones tilt back a certain way?? I thought it was part of a music track the first time it happened until i investigated.

Worked maybe 6 times

from Western Mass
Thought they were great. Volume could've been louder but they were good. Keyword: WERE. After using them maybe 6-8 times, they no longer pair with anything. I've tried to pair them on 5 different devices. Will be returning. Which sucks because they were exactly what I wanted for working in the yard.

Good/Not Good

Have owned these for close to two months. Loved them out of the box, but noticed that they kept dropping the Bluetooth connection. Now they won't even pair with any device I own. Great source for noise reduction, but pretty expensive just for earmuffs.

Frustrating
on May 31, 2018

Bluetooth frequently skips on ipod and galaxy s7, audio quality is below expectations for "hi-fi" and the headset is quite tight, to the point of discomfort after about an hour. Good and reducing noise from saws and mowing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
