3M Ear Plugs, E-A-Rsoft Yellow Neons 315-1250, 200 Pair of Disposable Earplugs, Pairs Individually Wrapped, Regular Size, Uncorded, 33 NRR, Tapered Cylinder Shape, Slow Recovery Foam

I sleep most nights in a semi-truck next to other noisy semi-trucks. I sleep with ear plugs every night. Have for years. Have tried all ear plugs. Most ear plugs will make your ears hurt if wearing for extended periods. These are incredibly soft while still blocking noise extremely well. When I first felt how soft these were I thought I had made a big mistake, that they would never block out noise like I need. I was oh so pleasantly surprised. These are amazing. I rarely write reviews, I only write this now because of the few bad reviews I see here. Don't believe it. Are these as big as those big clunky, coarse ear plugs pictured in other review? No. I think I have a normal size ear. I complained to a safety manager once because he bought ear plugs for narrow ear canals. Those were too narrow and did not block noise. These are fine. If you have ears you can fit your thumb in maybe look elsewhere. Noise blocking is slightly reduced from the denser foam 3m plugs similar to this. But it is actually a welcome trade off for comfort. For me it's the perfect ear plug at an amazing price.

I know 3M has been in the news during the pandemic, and not for good reasons, and it appears some of the combat earplugs they made for the military are not working correctly (you can read about that here, obviously change the underscores to periods before using the link: www_militarytimes_com/news/your-military/2019/02/14/hundreds-of-vets-are-suing-over-these-defective-combat-earplugs/) Nothing to indicate this was done deliberately, and certainly 3M is not known for botching manufacturing generally, but I'm a huge supporter of all those in uniform, so this disturbs me--but bottom line these are simply the best deal-- also the best performing noise reduction plugs, 33dB NR, and made in America. A no brainer choice. They're both pliable and yet incredibly effective, allowing you to fit them perfectly and feel them expand gently to fill the ear canal--like tiny memory foam inserts--perfect whether using them in a work environment or just to be able to sleep. They come in individually wrapped packages in a large box very convenient--made of non-toxic, non-leaching polyurethane, no latex, and very unlikely to cause any allergic reactions. I wouldn't swim with these, but they're great if you want to take a shower and you're prone to getting water in your ears. Working in the yard, they not only reduce noise from the leaf blower, they keep dust and particulates out of your ear canal. Put some of that alcohol we've been using to disinfect against covid on your fingers before you roll/insert the ear plug, but I've used these for years and never had any type of infection or issue. Bonus benefit: in fact when you take them out they often act as a kind of gentle excess ear wax cleaning! Beautiful, these will change your life, no kidding. A note on sleep: I suggest using them frankly every night, not just on noisy nights, if you really want a deep sleep--even having the sound of your partner breathing and moving, a beautiful comforting sound of course, but can slightly disturb your sleep--or a pet that shares the bed moving around, we're not aware of it necessarily, but it does affect the quality of our sleep. Using the earplugs is like swaddling your ears with a blanket, it's a comfort and it's also giving your eardrums and brain circuitry that handles sound a healthful rest while deepening & lengthening your sleep. Lastly, these are great if you're commuting on noisy public transit, or walking along a noisy road because you can still hear any warning sounds in the environment, but it's like you're wrapped in protective padding. Enjoy the quiet, the improved sleep and the comfort. Stay safe, take care

I have some real sensitivity to loud noises, especially what you hear when in an open floor plan type of restaurant, so I need earplugs. These are comfortable in the ear, muffle the noise, especially the sharp parts like dishes clanking together, etc. I also wear when working with tools like a compressor, hammer, drill, etc. Effective when flying too (and comfortable enough for a long flight). If I was using commercial equipment, I would likely need something a little stronger (or put over the ear protection on). These are also good for when you want to double up with earplugs and over the ear phones, like at a gun range or Indy Car race. I really like the individual packages they come in – I know they’re clear when I open them and makes it easy to keep a few pair in our vehicles and my wife’s purse.

After trying different brands and different styles, this 3M yellow neon plug is the most comfortable for my narrow ear canals. The sponge is gentler and softer on the ears than the others. The only downside is that from purchase date to receiving the item, it took months and months in addition to an unexplainable prolonged delay. Knowing this, order a restock about halfway through the box just to insure they never run out. Also, this particular shipment became crushed during transit which caused the manufacturer’s box to burst open. Luckily, it was shipped in an Amazon box so nothing was lost.

I got these on my husband's recommendation. I have a hard time sleeping at night since my husband has started snoring. He uses these for when he goes target practicing and recommended I try them for sleep. I figured it's worth a shot. I have small ears and have a hard time getting most ear plugs to stay. These ones allow me to twist them up small enough to actually fit them into my small ear tubes. And they stay in all night, which is another thing other ear plugs couldn't do for me. As far as noise cancelling, they work very well but they are not absolute. I can still faintly hear my husband snoring and the AC going. I cannot hear, however, my cat crying at the door at night which is a plus. They're enough noise cancelling that I can fall asleep. The only problem I have with them is that they tend to leave my ears kinda raw after about 2 nights of using them. It might just be because my ears are small and my skin is sensitive. My husband says he does not have that problem with them, so it might just be me. Overall, I sleep better so I will be buying them again.

Best ear plugs available. Much better performance than cheaper knockoffs. Use these to save your hearing when operating machinery. When cutting lawn I use 3M ear muff headset over 3M earplugs for > 50 dB attenuation.

Previously I was using some store-bought earplugs, which actually were hard-foam and better fitted to someone with large ear-holes. For me, these are delicate, soft and good for people with smaller ears. I always loose earplugs in the night, so that hasn't changed, but these just feel so good, block the noise well and I have been sleeping like a rock.

Venditore eccellente

Bouchons assez souples mais qui atténuent le bruit de manière efficace. N irritent pas les oreilles. Première fois que je utilise ce modèle (depuis 10 ans j utilise un autre modèle 3M). Je ne suis pas déçue par la marque. Je recommande. Les bouchons sont oranges et non jaune comme sur la photo.

3M seemed to be a trusted name in Noise isolating products. I did not like this version of the earbuds . They are short and the rating of NRR 32 db looks like a joke. Also their 1100 seem to be doing the exact same job even when they have rated them 28 db . Dont go for them 3M 1100 are cheaper and you don't have to buy them in bulk. I had to purchase a whole pack of 200 of these Neon Earplugs from ibhejo and since this is a non-returnable product I feel stuck with them.

Comfortable hearing protection at a good price
