Working in a factory i need good ear protection, the ear protectors the workplace provide are very bad so decided to buy optime 3 after reading the reviews.Huge difference! instantly thought well worth the investment when i got into work. drains out all the loud machinery noise to a very low tone..if you work in a loud environment then spending £21pound on these is very much worth it!

Bought these during lockdown to help block out the lovely noises in the house during working hours. They are incredible - you can still make out muffled noises - same with the TV on next door - but not so much that they constantly draw your attention. Productivity has improved a lot. Only downside is that I hear my tinnitus much more clearly.

I was concerned they would be rather too large for easy use in my workshop. I needn't have worried. They are very comfortable to the extent that I forget they are in place. They are great at minimising the noise in my small workshop & are well worth the money - you only get one set of eardrums!

I bought these on the off chance they would work good enough for the few times I use loud machines i.e. metal cutting chop saw and circular saw. I am pleased to say that this pair of defenders is well worth the money I paid.You need to look at the decibel rating to judge if ANY pair will perform as you expect, these have a rating of 35DB. The higher the number, the more noise they should cut out. Cutting metal with a chop saw gives a lot of high pitched "screaming" in your ears I find, so a rating of 35DB is ideal for me. Indeed, using my milwaukee metal cutting circular saw is now a delight, rather than an ordeal for my ears. Any ear defenders will help, but look for the decibel rating to help judge the level of protection. They are a reasonably tight fit on your head (mine is a largish size of head) but wearing this model for a long time is ok and not too tight for it to be distracting too much. Once I tried it, i realised I would never go without them again, if I could help it.I highly recommend these ear defenders, but ANY type of ear defenders are better than none, just look for the rating number for noise reduction.

Where I work there is a lot of loud machines beep, after putting this earmuff on it reduce it around 90%.It's like the same feeling under deep-sea peaceful and quiet, with my mobile earphones playing music at 1 bar it totally blocked out all of the beeping noise.Highly recommended if you need some quiet time

Needed these for use with a table saw which was frighteningly loud and they are very effective at dampening the noise so I use them with anything loud like long sander sessions. The fit is comfortable and there is space for my bluetooth earphones to fit underneath. Blocks out the highest range of sound but leaves enough for you to hear someone trying to get your attention if need be.

Very effective sound insulation - not heard the wife for several weeks now. These muffs can easily deal with the high frequency screaming as well as the low frequency moaning. Peak levels, like those encountered by smashing glass and slamming doors are almost imperceptible. I should've got a pair of these 25 years ago!

Exceptional product. Took me about two days to get used to the 'feeling' of wearing the device. Now, a week later, I am hooked. The busy neighbourhood I live in (stupid dogs barking, kids screaming and cars racing down the road) has become blissfully silent. I can study on my PC, read, write and concentrate. Ideally people would learn to curb their selfish habits, but in the meantime, these will do nicely. It's like an extra layer of double glazing . Perfect!

These are the business. Excellent. I have tried many makes and models of ear defender over the years, but these are the best yet. Fully enclose the ears; good attenuation; comfortable and not too heavy. Despite other reviewers' comments, I found the pressure from the strap to be sufficient to prevent slipping, without being so strong as to hurt the head or the ears. I would buy these again, without hesitation.

I was a bit skeptical after reading reviews prior to purchasing these ear defenders: but I must admit, they do the job really well, and I`m able to sleep with them on. And they are far better at blocking out sound than using earplugsStephen 27/10/2020
