HEAROS Ultimate Softness Foam Earplugs, 32dB NRR Ear Plugs, 100 Pairs, Soft Ear Plugs Noise Reduction for Hearing Protection, Sleeping, Snoring, Working, Shooting,

Doesn't cause ear pain , though I wear them for as much as six hours in a day. Fairly efficient in blocking noise. I walk around comfortably in the apron with helicopters started up around.

These were great when I had a warehouse job - the conveyor belts were around 85 dB, which is harmful when it's for 8-12 hours/day, and these were more than sufficient to drop that noise to a safe level. Earplugs also work better against really low pitch sounds than the rest, so I could crank up my music, hear it at a normal volume, and basically not hear the belts at all unless they jammed - very useful for staying sane during a very tedious job. They're also good if you're stuck in an apartment that's waaaaaaay too close to a high-traffic road. They'll dampen the traffic noise enough to sleep, and they're soft enough to keep them in that long without any major issues. You can of course get more powerful earplugs, and if what you need protection from is a shorter burst of much louder noise (jackhammers, dynamite, gunfire, that sort of thing), these are the wrong plug for those cases, as softness doesn't really matter for short-term use, and you want the highest dB reduction rating you can find when the noise level is going to be that high, with muffs as well... but for most things you'd use an earplug for, these work great.

I used to be a huge fan of Hearos, but after recieving this purchase several months ago, I was doubting that it was even a genuine HEAROS shipment. The resealable bag that contained them didnt look or feel authentic and the roughly half of the 200 pcs were permanently deformed or poorly moulded. Definitely not like earlier orders I recieved of them. Disappointing.

These are a game changer. I love that they are flesh tone so you can wear them in public if needed without drawing attention to your ears. I wear them at night to help with the snoring situation coming from the other side of the bed. You can still hear your alarm, etc. They just take the edge off. I also wear them when I emcee or go to loud events to protect my ears. They are comfortable and will work in many different situations. I Love Them !!!

I use these for sleep. Extremely light sleeper. We adopted a foster baby who is a screamer and pretty much the loudest child all the time anyway. When my husband is on toddler duty, I can wear these and hear almost NOTHING, ie, small house, her making LOUD noises right through our door or wall. They block out snoring well too. I bought a box twosish years ago and finally made it through them and noticed on my latest batch they are different material—not as soft—more shiny, and not quite as comfortable—the old ones I could wear an entire night without sore ears. However they are still comfortable and I can notice that they work even better so who knows. Either way, still the best out there, no question.
