Best earplugs out there! When used properly

Best earplugs I have ever used. They really do work although there is a slight learning curve on how to properly use.... you don't squish them and stick them in your ear like other ear plugs! Instead they need to cover the outer opening to your ear. Not too much squishing involved, they should stay nearly round when in use. Really blocks out even loud snoring sounds

Changed my life and relationship with the husband (for better!)

I love, love, love these for blocking out snoring. I am a light sleeper, and husband's snoring has been a constant gripe for me - to the point that atleast twice a week, I'd sleep in a different room so that I could feel well rested. And the days that we'd sleep in the same room, I'd be tired and cranky as hell. I've been looking for a long term solution to this (since I would actually like for me and my husband to sleep in the same bed every night) !! I even ended up purchasing the Bose in-ear sleep headphones for $250+ - while they were effective for blocking out sound, the fit was weird, they kept falling out of my ears while sleeping, was uncomfortable for side sleeping and gave me blisters in my ears when I slept on my stomach. Returned! These ear plugs though.... Have been a life saver! They are comfortable, fit well since you have to mold them to your ear, and have been super effective at blocking out sound! I was a skeptic since I've tried different things, but nothing worked. This one does! It's only been a week, but I know I'm a customer for life now. Will never sleep without these again. The only downside is that it's difficult to hear alarms etc through the earplugs. I am yet to figure that one out. But otherwise 5-stars from me!

Way better than sticking an earplug in your ear

These go ON your ears, not in them. I fly internationally nearly every year, usually across the Pacific, and wind up wearing earplugs for up to 13 hours (apart from meals), because the sustained drone of jetliners' engines are not good for your hearing. But your ear canals don't like that. They feature a thin layer of skin over bone and damage easily. That's why doctors say you should never put anything smaller than your elbow in your ear. And I can say from long experience that conventional foam earplugs are irritating during long use like what I describe here. But these silicone earplugs go over your ear canal, using the qualities of silicone to adhere to the ear around the ear canal. That's the theory. And in this case it's also the practice. I lost mine before returning on my last trip and had to make do with the free earplug provided by the airline, and it reminded me of how great these silicone on-the-ear plugs are. If you try them I doubt you'll go back, and they're cheap enough to try. You can dispose of a pair after using it, but I've found you can re-use them quite a bit BTW.

Well these are super comfy and I have no issues wearing them for ...

I have an awful coworker that I can hear eating her carrots, chips, etc THROUGH A CLOSED DOOR while I’m WEARING OVER EAR HEADPHONES. I also have a family living above me that lets their children run from one end of the condo to the other until sometimes 11 at night. You could say I’m sensitive to noise. Well these are super comfy and I have no issues wearing them for long periods. Can’t hear anything when they’re in. Sometimes I sleep in them, and if I put my phone next to my head I can still hear my alarm in he morning since it is so close. Very sound deadening if you get a proper seal. Only con is my hair gets stuck in the silicone.

.... Can't even hear my neighbors kids blasting the TV late at night ,,,, ZZZZZZZZ

Flatten the earplug, then place it over the ear canal. Then press it into place at 12, 3 6, 9, like the face of a clock. I have used these for years and they work excellent. I read alot of the reviews and people are either inserting them into the ear canal or complaining there to soft. They have to be soft to adhere to the skin in your ear. These work excellent, exspecialy if you have noisy neighbors, like me.

Can't travel without these!

I do a lot of traveling to different places and can have trouble sleeping with unfamiliar noises. Most earplugs don't do anything other than make my ears hurt, but these were game changing. They are super comfortable and block out almost all noise entirely, making it possible to sleep just about anywhere. I take them with me for any budget hostel trip and never hear my roommates. I've taken them with me to many noisy city hotels and they block out all of the traffic and city noise outside (they even muffled the construction noise right outside my hotel enough for me to nap through the jackhammer sounds). And I recently took them on a cross country Amtrak journey, and they muffled all the train and horn and wheel noises enough for me to sleep soundly all through the night. I absolutely recommend these for all travelers!

Only ear plugs I will every buy

My husband decided to take up snoring as a hobby so earplugs seemed a better solution to smothering him in his sleep. I've been through countless types of the orange faom ones, they just end up hurting my ears and/or falling out so I end up with what looks like a bed full of cheetos. So I decided to try Mack's. I will never go back. these things are amazing. They actually block out the noise of my husband's endless nocturnal pursuit of protecting me from bears by obstructed breathing. They don't hurt my ears and they don't fall out. Finally I can get a good night's sleep.

amazing!!!

My bf snores. Loud. We have wood floors in the bedroom and the dogs. If the dogs walk around, you hear it. Wonderful in the middle of the night. I have tried every year plug imaginable. I can still hear stuff. I tried these on a whim and oh my God! You cannot hear anything. Nothing. I don't hear the fan, the dogs, or my boyfriend snoring. I do however hear my alarm because I set it super high. But even then it's low. It's a good thing I'm a light sleeper. I find them super easy to use. You just soften them up with your fingers- really pliable. I do what they tell you not to do but it works awesome for me.I basically put it in my ear and shove down with my thumb. That's it. It doesn't go into my ear canal and when it's time to be removed you just pull it right out. I don't find a problem with it but others in may. The only problem I have is I have very long hair and it tends to get caught in the wax. You can just pull it out and slide the waxy pieces off your hair. I remedy most of the problem by wearing my hair up. Oh, they are reusable, I've used the same pair for a while. When they get gross I throw them out. If you have smaller ears, you can use half of one and that works good too. But be careful -it is smaller in your ear canal. Other than that, I would recommend with more than five stars if I could. Amazing.

Amazing for sleeping, only kind I use.

My very favorite ear plugs ever for sleeping. I have been using this brand for over ten years! Yes I can wake because of sound . This is in my ears every night, for ten whole years! It is like I can't sleep without them. I after the first night did not notice it was there. I do 'reform' there to fit into my ears better. That means I rip some excess (silicone wax) off and mold it a bit, I never had a problem with these. Also for those that are wondering, yes you can reuse, and do not have to throw them out that quickly. Please keep making them forever! I can't tolerate other ear plugs.

The best! I'll never go back to foam earplugs

Love these! I'm a super light sleeper so have to wear earplugs nightly. But after using foam ones regularly for over a year my ears were constantly irritated, sore and throbbing. I have small ears and even the foam plugs made for women and small ears just killed me. Finally, my ENT recommended these. I'll never go back to foam! I've been wearing these every night for seven months now with no pain. I like that they're really easy to wash too, since they're silicone. I do have small ears so I break one plug in half and use 1/2 per ear. This is just the right size for me but there are specific instructions included for use.
