3M PELTOR Hearing Protection Optime 98 Earmuffs, Adjustable Tilt Earcups, E-A-Rfit Compatible

Muy buenos

I specifically bought these because they were inexpensive and yellow to match my John Deere. Who says men aren't fashionable!!They fit well, although I tend to wear them on the back of my head so I can wear my disgustingly filthy cowboy hat. They were easy to adjust and knock down the sound of the tractor enough my ears don't ring when I'm done for the day, but I can still hear things going on around me. So far, they have held up well for their first sweaty summer.

I spent WAY too long reading about the million options online for ear protection. I've been setting up a woodworking shop, and already exposed myself to more noise than I should before buying these (I did not think that an impact driver would cause ringing in the ears -- news flash: it does -- especially if you're putting a 3/4" hole through a 2 x 4).Reading about all the products, I started to worry if I would be getting enough decibels of noise protection. Should I spend $20 and get X dB? or $30 and get X+3dB? or $50 and get X+6dB?! Too many choices.After all that research I decided to try these, which as you know are not the highest rating, but got good reviews.These are spectacular, and I would bet that unless you are working at the airport, they're probably enough for whatever you're doing. I have used impact driver, miter saw, shop vac, jigsaw, router. With these on my head, there is absolutely minimal "noise" and certainly not at any kind of level that I would call problematic.One thing to note that is listed on the actual packaging, but none of these Amazon descriptions include, is that the noise rating is the overall broadband noise reduction. But at higher frequencies, the reduction is much, much higher. The kind of sound that is gonna give you ringing in your ears is the mid-to-high frequencies, and those are obliterated by these headphones (and probably are by any decent pair of phones).Long story short, I would definitely give these a try before spending more, and see if you're happy. I am.

Does the job

It's always hard for my husband to find a cap or anything to fit his head properly, so I was concerned when I ordered these that they wouldn't fit his head very well. The evening that they arrived I took them to him. He put them on, and not only did they fit his head, they also covered his ears without pinching them, or crowding them. He hasn't used them with the mower yet, but so far so good! Hopefully they will do a good job of protecting his ears from the noise. If they don't, I will have to change my review... But, I am optimistic since they seal well and they're comfortable.

bought these as sensory earmuffs to help with my sensory overload & omg, im sooo glad i did! i could actually cry. ive tried noise canceling headphones which didnt really help since usually they worked better with sound (which is the thing i want to avoid) + the ones ive tried havent been very comfortable & unfortunately expensive. these however truly do the job! + i can use earbuds along with them if i wanted! i was worried about them being heavy but honestly they look a lot heavier than they actually are the weight isnt even that noticable, i think the most noticable thing is the pressure around your ears but that makes sense since they're meant to fit snug to block noise better so im not complaining but it may be an issue for people who deal with ear problems/pain/infections. i was worried they didnt adjust at first but they do it just takes a bit more effort to adjust than over the ear headphones but not in a bad way, just different. honestly the only complaint i really have is i wish these came in other colors! i know these aren't listed as sensory earmuffs but in general sensory earmuffs are usually marketed towards children only & definitely the only cute ones are for kids, which is nice! im glad thats a thing! but like there are a lot of adults with sensory issues too! having more color choices would just be the cherry on top. i also dont wear these all the time because too much avoidance of sound can make the overload worse when i am exposed to it but they're very very nice for when i need a break for a few minutes or hours, i have tinnitus so its never truly silent for me but using these have still saved me from sensory meltdowns multiple times! im genuinely grateful for that & the fact that they're actually affordable please never change that! more people should be able to experience them. overall these are amazing, they're affordable, lightweight, comfortable, & definitely help reduce background noise! thank you :+)

I'm up at the staging lanes and burnouts are loud. I should have bought a pair 30 years ago. Protect your eyes, ears, and skin. Don't wait. Worth every penny.

My wife and daughter use these with comfortable satisfaction, however with my larger head I experience some discomfort. If you don't have a larger head five stars and if you do think twice.
