I have been searching for the perfect pair of earplugs that don't slip out of my ear as I turn in my sleep and are just as comfortable when I sleep on my side as my back (tend to be a slide sleeper). In the 4 weeks since purchase, I have used them probably 10-15 times, and they only fell out one night that i can recall. They seem to just fit my ear canal so much better than other brands and stay secure, and muffle my partner's snoring enough that it's barely audible (low frequency). And they're soft and comfortable for 7-8 hours through the night with no uncomfortable pressure points on the canal or the outer ear. And the case itself is TINY and securely closes - perfect for popping in my travel case but big enough not to get lost. Others found it hard to position them, but they seem relatively natural after the third or fourth time. You can easily tell when you're inserting the wrong one in the L or R ear. If these did not work, I was about to try some of the ANC (Active Noise Cancelling) models out there - but truly I no longer need them. Overall really glad I kept these Alpine earpligs versus the others I ordered - TOAPEX -45db earplugs, Loop Quiet 2, Loop Dream. None of those models stayed put i my ear, and were uncomfortable in one way or another. Read more
I am becoming a lighter sleeper as I get older, and so taking CBN . After trying 8 different varieties of ear plugs I think I finally found a pair that will work for me. I live in a nice area but between airplanes flying until midnight, birds chirping and general noise I need something to fit solid in my ears Tried these last night and so far seems to work Good fit, comfortable for a side sleeper and great price Not a complete blocking of noise but muffled enough to fall asleep. If these work I may invest in another pair just to have on hand Hope this review helps those searching for a good fit and diminishing sound Read more
The item does a good job blocking noise and sits well in my ears even with a conch and daith piercing. But when the product was delivered it seemed like it had been open and there was these weird things in the earplugs that looked like either earwax or leaves. But that part I assume was on Amazon. So, overall good product! Read more
Although, they don’t block out every noise, 100%, they are the best that, I’ve found. After trying various foam earplugs which fell out or didn’t effectively block noise, the best I previously found were the silicone ones that were only good for a few nights, or they no longer stick then had to be thrown away. If inserted properly these earplugs do work and lay flat within the ear so as not to be uncomfortable for side sleepers. Ignore some of the negative reviews. As with so many reviews on Amazon when you have a disproportionately low number of negative reviews, many people are not following directions or using the product correctly. The review that said, the tip came out and became lodged in his wife’s ear was only because she did not make sure the tip was on securely. It takes a bit of a tug to get the tips off in order to change them and they have to be completely attached before using. This doesn’t just happen. As far as noise reduction, I have not been sleeping next to a snorer, or near any railroad tracks but one of our dogs is a barker and there’s no telling what might set her off. Since using these earplugs, I can’t hear her. Also, there are right and left earplugs as well as proper placement on one’s ear. I found that I could still hear noise if they weren’t inserted properly. I’ve only had these a few weeks so will have to write a later update on how long they are effective. Read more
I REALLY wanted to like these. As a side sleeper, I found that they truly were comfortable to wear. Great fit, nice options for ear piece sizes, wonderful packaging. But they did not muffle sound when used for sleeping. If anything - is it even possible? - it seemed they amplified sounds for me. While comfortable for side sleeping, they didn't actually reduce sound to help me sleep. I did order the company's "deep sleep" ear plugs, too, so while these are going back, I am still hopeful that Alpine will come through. Read more
After recently losing a pair of earplugs, I went in search to buy new ones and came across these. What attracted me to them first was the case and how the plugs fit together inside so neatly. They even survived a drop test case opened and they stayed put. Easily fits in your pocket and you can even attach them to a keychain or clip with the loop tag in the side! They are very comfortable to wear, too. The soft silicone and V shaped feels natural that provides a snug, secure fit. Perfect for use while sleeping. The package has three different sizes to meet specific needs. Small worked for me best. As for sound blocking, they do their job. As someone with sound sensitivity, ear plugs are a god send when it comes to going out in public, especially shopping. They block the majority of high frequency sounds that bother me most, which is a big plus. I'll need to test them out at a concert soon! The $20 price may seem a bit steep, but so far it's more than worth it for me. With the quality and design that went into it, it's more like a steal! Would highly recommend. Read more
Unfortunately the product was uncomfortable for me. While fully plugged still could hear the outside noise, but the worst thing was that I heard my breath, every bone click, every tooth scratch. This doesn’t happen for example in AirPods. Anyway, the product is super stylish, the color is nice, material is soft and smooth. Read more
These work well. I use them at the office because we have an open floor plan and it’s easier to focus without all the background conversations. These, won’t make the world absolutely silent but are useful to block out background noise while letting enough sound in to grab your attention if someone speaks directly to you. It took a minute to figure out how to place them so they would be most comfortable to me, but once I had it figured out they’ve been working like a charm. Read more
