I love these earplugs. They are the best ones I have ever tried and purchased. I keep a pair in each vehicle, purse, travel bag, etc…

Easiest to place remove Work well everywhere Only ones that don’t irritate my ears Best ones for daily wear

It's a beautifully made product, but the shape is not what my ears need for sleeping next to a snorer. The medium size was too large for my ears. The small fit into the ear canal but not without a tremendous amount of struggle to squeeze in the red bulb. I had hoped that the flower-petal type of flange would not protrude too much, so that resting on a pillow would not push the ear plug too deep. Alas, the flange was a bit too long and rigid. The better alternative for me is one of those triple-mushroom-shaped ear plugs with the long stem; I just cut the stem shorter, but I have to be very accurate as to its length. I hope this helps people looking for the right ear plug for themselves.

these work, they're comfortable and reusable. rinse, dry and put back in the little bottle. (they also work for skeet and trap, if that's your thing)

These earplugs work so well that I can't sleep without them! I've ordered the extra small pair for a decade and take them with me any time I need to sleep or concentrate. They are small, soft, and block out noise--a must-have for light sleepers. No more annoying foam ones that don't stay in all night! Plus, the cute little container is a bonus.

I tried three earplugs before buying Silent Ear. I was skeptical that they would work better than plain foam earplugs, but I was pleasantly surprised. My need was hearing protection in an extremely loud (111 to 118 decibel) MRI machine. Silent Ear worked VERY well to reduce noise! I'd had an MRI in the same machine a few weeks before using Silent Ear plugs, so I was able to objectively compare the difference. Highly recommended!

No kidding, I bought my first pair in 2012 to reduce terrible neighbor noise while I slept. I still have the same pair from that purchase and use them every single night. As far as effectiveness, I believe they are the best earplugs on the market for regular noise reduction. And they well worth the money to try because if they work for you, if you keep them clean (which is ridiculously easy), and you keep track of them, they will last you for the long haul. I'm back on the site 10 years later to grab a backup "just in case" and to grab a set for my spouse.

Thanks my go to plug for gigs, really any situation where it gets loud. I tell folks its like having your own "clicker" when you want to "tone it down" a bit. Great fit and with the clear flange, not real noticeable, all in the plus column! Don,t leave home without em!

These work really well to block low frequency noises like bass.

These ear plugs are great. Easily portable and effective. I keep them on my keychain so that I always have them in case situations get too loud Granted I have to buy a different set with a better metal case and use that to carry them around. They're also subtle so I can wear them in everyday situations to bring the volume down and most people never notice (busy offices, loud movies, noisy shows, etc.)

I was really hoping these would work out, but they aren't large enough for my ear canals and let in too much noise. I tried to insert them a bit deeper in case that was the problem but then they put pressure on the ear drum. I ended up going back to a foam pair on the test ride as these just didn't work and were letting in far too much road noise.

These are great! Not only are they reusable, but they are well made and sturdy for repeated use. I ordered the average size which turned out to be too big for me. I ended up losing one so I'm going to reorder the smaller ones.

I have used these for years for lawn mowing and they work very well. They block the noise well and are relatively comfortable and have lasted a long time. However, the key is getting the right size. When I originally ordered years ago, the trial pack came in three sizes - small, medium, and large. The small size is what was best for me as my ear openings are on the small size. I couldn't even get the large in my ears at all and the medium would go in but were painful and eventually would work their way out of my ear.. I recently mislaid my original pair, so went to order a replacement. I discovered that they now evidently only come in small and average sizes. Fortunately for me, the small is still the same size as it was, but I think the reason some reviewers say they don't work well for them is they can't get ones that are large enough for their ears. So, if you have large ear openings, you probably need to look elsewhere. If your ear openings are small or average, these should work well for you.

I have used these ear plugs for years and they are the best at blocking out traffic noise as well as dogs barking.

I find these to be very comfortable to wear and very effective.

These plugs seem sturdy and well made, so I don't doubt it will last long. However, it doesn't seem to match the rating of 32, I have a pair of foam plugs rated at the same but they feel quieter so I am not sure. Maybe the larger size would provide a better seal, but I wouldn't know because they don't make large. Basically disappointed..

I have used these in the past and just purchased an extra pair to use when cutting the lawn, using the gas blower and for doing other outside work. Great product, well made, long lasting and effective.

Have used these plugs for years and never had any problem with them or what they're suppose to do. Works great.

Too small. I with they sold the large which I bought years ago, however now they only offer average and small

Both pairs are too small (don't provide complete seal). I have to have maximum reduction to avoid vertigo like symptoms.

I loved these ear plugs, and used my previous ones all the time. I panicked when I lost them, and quickly ordered some more. I use them when at church, as the music is way-too-loud., and around home where I have to put up with squeaking sparrows all day long.

I love these ear plugs. I sleep very well with them, they are comfortable, the small size fits my ears well, and do not fall out during the night.

would not fit properly in ear canal, had a hard time sealing, had to push in hard to seal, after opening and closing mouth they would break seal, expanding foam plugs much better, like hero's plugs.

These earplugs are so small they fall right out (and I have a small head). Won’t even stay in when I try to push them in. Had to throw away

I am older, and go to the gym and the music volume is so loud it turns my spiritual exercise workout into hell. I need ear plugs to block this out lower, so does not interfere my mental experience of exercising. This product was not usable at all for this---i was disappointed very much---for what profile said it would do, did not come close to doing that. And then i did more research and got these--that gun shooters use and they are excellent- SureFire-Defenders-Filtered-Earplugs-Reusable

did not fit and need to be larger for larger ear cannals.

These little earplugs saved my sanity and my life. I can pop them in easily and quickly and no one knows I'm wearing them. They help me focus on projects immediately vs wasting time "getting into it". I use them for studying, doing research, writing letters/reports etc., - i even use them at parties that are just too darn loud. I carry a pair in my purse; keep one at my desk; and have 2 back-ups at home just in case. I've also slept with them and do great - no waking up mid-stream. Great product - won't be without them.

Can't use them.

I've been using these ear plugs for years when I sleep. They're excellent for sound attenuation, have a long life if taken care of and cleaned, and are comfortable to wear. Honestly, these ear plugs are second to none. Brian M. Seattle, WA

Got these for my husband in nursing home with very inconsiderate roommate who never turned off his TV. The staff promised to help insert them, and would keep them on the med cart. Unfortunately, within 24 hours, one was missing, and the other was on the floor. They work, but too bad the staff didn't follow through. A little expensive to re-order!

good product excelent service

These ear plugs work like no others. I thought I wasn`t sleeping well because I`m well into my 50`s. That`s what everyone told me was the reason. After using these ear plugs , I realized that wasn`t it. I sleep soooo well. Tried other ear plugs---useless. These are the best ever.

They didn't work for me at all. I could hear everything. I may have the wrong size. Will be returning them.

I have been using these for several months now, and am afraid to try to sleep without them, they are that good! I am a very light sleeper, but I have been sleeping so well since I started using these. I get total noise blockage and I can sleep on my side without any discomfort. I have and will recommend them.

excellent ear plugs. Have used them for a while now and have found them to be very good. I truly recommend them BM

Sorry, I'm sure these are great for work or non sleeping activity. BUT not good at all if you sleep on your side. The large size didn't block out all residual sound either unless they were jammed into my skull.

I am a light sleeper and cannot go off into dream land without these trusty earplugs. I've been wearing them over 8 years. When they break down I order more.

Work great but should have order the smaller size

these were very uncomfortable and would not stay in my ears. I don't have time or energy to deal with returns so I tossed them. I'll go back to the soft disposables.

I've been using these ear plugs for the past 6 years, and they have served me extremely well. I sleep with them every night and have not lost them. I am a light sleeper and we live in a condominium, my room is right by the kitchen and my family works shift work so everyone is always up at different times. I only have purchased again as a security measure because I think 6 years is a pretty lucky streak for me.

Although these plugs fit well and felt comfortable, they only gave me minimal sound reduction.

These are the best and most comfortable earplugs I have ever used.

These earplugs are so uncomfortable they are impossible to sleep in. I would not recommend these.

I've been using my original pair for about 5 years. They are still quite functional, but I ordered 2 replacement pair just in case I lose the originals. I'm a Sporting Clays shooter and shoot at least twice a week. After every use, I simply wash them with hand soap and warm water. Let them sit overnight to air dry and put them back the handy carry bottle. I wish these were furnished in a corded model. That would be great.

I have been using SilentEar Earplugs for years. They are the best earplugs I have ever used, and I have used earplugs all my life. I can wear them all day comfortably, and it is so easy to clean them. I made a "necklace" of nylon mason's twine for the plastic case; I hang it around my neck at work.

I have been using ear plugs for years to block my husband's snoring. These are the best ones I have found. They fit nicely and are comfortable. They also wash up nicely and last a long time.

I use these when skeet shooting as well as in the field. The ear plugs work very well and are easy to insert and remove.

I have a condition that makes loud or sharp noises very painful. These little ear plugs have helped me live a more normal life. Thanks for a great product.

Excellent product--have bought them for past 5 years- Wonderful value!!

I have tried many, many different kinds of earplugs for different purposes, and was especially intrigued by these because of their high NRR rating and unique design. The plugs are also very durable and well-designed. I purchased both the small and average size for a comparison, and expectation that one of the two sizes would fit. However, like others rating this product, they are simply unusable because the 'average' size is too small. Mind you, I am a small person (5'7" male), and when I wear earbuds, the medium size fits well, and I never use the large size. Try as I might, I cannot get a seal with these earplugs that will last more than a couple of seconds. I have followed the instructions, have tried various things to seat the plugs properly, and nothing seems to work. I'm quite certain that if there were a larger size, more customers would be satisfied and the rating for this product would be higher. I'm sure they work very well for those who find a proper fit. I am not one of those persons.
