Good all-around for the price
on September 17, 2023
Posted by: KDulcimer
I bought these a few years ago and I'm happy that I did. The only issue I've had is the ear pads wearing out, but if you didn't know ear pads are a wear item... you do now. New pads are cheap.
I wear these probably about 1x a week, for either snow blowing or lawn mowing. They do a great job of keeping outside noise out.
Also, it should be noted the frequency response is pretty good. The bass is a little weak, which is understandable for having ear cups filled with foam. But overall, this is one of my flatter headphones.
Bluetooth range... isn't great. When I first got these, I had a metal-body phone, and I had about 10 foot range, but now that everything is glass, I can get closer to the 30 feet you're supposed to get. I still sometimes get cutout when I'm riding the mower and the phone is in my left pocket.

Weak radio
on September 17, 2023
Posted by: Frank the Tank
I bought a set a in 2021 and they are great, quiet, BT works well, but mostly the radio is flawless. I ordered a pair in July this year to have on hand and eventually replace my old set but the radio is weak, fades in and out unlike the original set. Installed several sets of batteries and nothing changes. What can I do about it?

Need some fit tweaks
on September 17, 2023
Posted by: Can man
I work in an extreme loud manufacturing environment, these work pretty good at blocking noise and allowing me to hook to my phone for music, games, podcasts or whatever. Please offer some ear pads that will create a deeper ear cup! I work 12 hour shifts, I can only wears these for about 4 hours as my ears are smashed into them. I’m not a big person either, the fit is good but the top strap irritates my bald head especially where the gap is for a baseball hat button

After 1 year of ownership, my honest opinion.
on September 26, 2023
Posted by: Dev c
I've been using these headphones in very high stress environments for at least a year now, I have zero complaints. They are pretty good and comfortable all day wearing for heavy equipment use like jackhammers and jumping compactors. The base is pretty weak, but that's okay with listening to podcasts as I do. Battery lasts a pretty significant amount of time and they have no issues in Dusty environments where respirator use is mandatory. Overall I would recommend these if you're looking for a balance of comfort and safety and feel confident in the five star review. I've seen a lot of reviews on here talking about the materials disintegrating, I have had zero issue with that. I want to leave a picture, these things are still in great shape.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Two years in
on October 1, 2023

I've had these for two years and haven't had a single complaint until now. I hadn't even realized how weak the attachment point to the ear muffs were until I dropped them and one of them shattered. I guess I shouldn't expect them to last much beyond 2 years at this price point and I certainly haven't been easy on these. I did enjoy them and if I can't jury rig them i'll probably buy another set. Just don't like the waste.

They are ok
on October 8, 2023
Posted by: The Olive
from Phoenix, Az
Good as hearing protection. Music quality? Very poor. Not loud enough. Can’t really hear it. No issues with battery or durability so far. Approx 1 year old. I don’t abuse them. But I wish I could use them the way I want. But we can’t. So I would recommend something else. I even used these at nascar with the app. They are ok. They work better for that. Cause you really can’t hear anything anyways. Plus you can get phone calls and text notifications. This is why I say still three star. Other wise for music. Too quiet.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Perfect for Working People

Amazing sound and ear protection at the same time. I love throwing them on at work and zoning out in my own little world. I use them in high noise environments and love them in quiet places.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Satisfied

The headphones work great at reducing noise in the wood shop. We have a band saw that really howls.
I can honestly say i have never had a problem pairing this device. The sound quality more than adequate.
Maybe I'm lucky but cant complain about any aspect of this product.
