Vanderfields Premium Ear Defenders - Hearing Protection Earmuffs - Broad Spectrum Sound Reduction 33 dB at 2K Hz Noise Cancelling - Headset Noise Cancellation Adults and Teens - Green

Overall, decent ear defenders. I use them both for sensory reduction and have used them for shooting twice (much better than the standard issue in terms of comfort, on par with noise reduction). Pros: - Seal nicely and still provide adequte noise reduction even if hair gets in the way - Can be ajusted as needed, will fit most heads - Are relatively low profile, so can be worn under a hoodie - so if like in my case - you wear them in public for sensory purposes (compared to other brands) - The small padded band, while small significantly increases comfort - While others have stated that they can become uncomfortable with time, this is like 3 hours continuous use - Foam inserts can be removed when wiping down the ear defenders Cons: - They have held up so far, while they don't feel of overly high quality, they don't feel (e.g. like the plastic won't break easily) - For thoes using for sensory purposes, these won't pass as headphones, but neither will any others on the market (other than the Alpine's maybe). But then again, no one on the street is paying more attention than a glance. - The padded band can move from side to side when putting on, so just make sure that is is comfy so it doesn't irritate you in any way

excellent products. does exactly what hat they say. comfortable. great sound reducing and well made. l have extreme sensitivity to sound and we have the builders in. sometimes you don't want to listen to music. these are excellent. all good.

These are incredibly tight when you first get them- stretch them over the box for a few hours before you first use them. I've been storing them over the box when not in use as I've found they can become a bit tight again when I don't. They don't block as much sound as I'd initially hoped- though I wasn't expecting them to block everything. However, I've found that they work best for me when I pair them with earphones- that way I can still block out more sound while easily being able to pay attention to my environment when I need to. Overall, these are pretty comfortable for long-term wearing, easy to adjust- even factoring in the earphones. The price point is pretty decent too. I would definitely recommend these as I use them whenever I go out.

On the plus side these ear defenders work well for blocking screeching on parts of London Underground where the wheels scrape against the track, such as Northern line between Camden and Euston and Central line near Stratford. They also allow you to hear natural conversation while blocking out higher or lower range noises. On the minus side they squeeze the head and are uncomfortable after a few minutes. For short-term use they are fine. I tested these defenders in various scenarios: Pneumatic drill - I stood three feet from a workman in the street using a drill on the pavement - excellent, sounded like the drill was half a mile away. Drum concert - heavy night-club type bass - no effect, didn’t work to keep out bass. London Underground - screeching as train wheels grind the track - good, prevents noise from being ear-piercing. Washing up chinaware in the sink - plates and cutlery banging and crashing - good, they prevent the noise from being painful. You must ensure the noise blockers fit right around the sides of your face. The slightest mis-fit due to the mufflers not being positioned properly, and they basically don’t work. E.g. if you wear a woolly hat that gets in the way of the defenders, they won’t work. These are not noise cancellers but noise blockers. There is no cancelling effect but don't let that put you off. I would recommend these.

My son has autism level 2 and once starting college struggled with the collective noise generated from a large place of learning where there is a lot of movement and chatter (mainly in break periods). These defenders are good quality with a wide fit that closes comfortably over ears. The noise was reduced to a low hum which my son stated enabled him to cope better.

Super. Just as well as i bought 4 pairs! 2 for my son who autism & like myself likes his own noise but not anyone elses. And 2 for me because i have perma sensitive, sore ears from chronic otitis externa (diabetes related). And my sons noise during a meltdown can be overwhelming! The only slight issue is i can not figure out how to adjust them, they are a tight fit. But someone else adjusted them for me so they are adjustable.

These have become indispensable, and I take them with me often, whenever I expect there might be loud sounds. They've saved me from being overwhelmed on multiple occasions. They're comfortable, and sturdy enough that I've had and been wearing them for months without signs of wear. If I need silence, I put a pair of ear plugs underneath, but these generally serve well enough on their own.

Very light and comfortable to wear. Initially thought by seeing the package, the device may be small. On opening the box I realized the device is nicely designed and foldable to maximum extent compactable. Ear cups are also soft and not pressurize the ear. Overall I'm happy in getting this ear defenders.

Perfect fit, very low noise, excellent!

Got these for various members of my family for when we're using power tools, vacuums, blenders etc. Kids enjoy wearing them. I use them when operating the snow thrower. They work great, are comfortable and block sound just the right amount. Definitely stylish too which is a big plus.

Apretaban demasiado, y sonaba aún así los ruidos de fuera.
