I'm very pleased with these ear muffs. I had another brand which I used for a while, but I think these feel more protective. They're comfortable, the molded cups fit snugly around my ears and over the safety glasses, and I haven't had any issues with ringing ears after wearing these. Used for indoor shooting range, and they seem to work great, so yes, I'd say these are high quality and I would definitely recommend them. Read more
For anyone who is extremely noise sensitive as I am. Traffic noises, roosters crowing, loud trucks, and on and on. These ear muffs are hands down absolutely the best for blocking out noise. They are extremely comfortable, very well made, and very decently priced. Highly recommend!! Read more
This Decibel Defense (DD) brand hearing protection type ear-muff is the third one I have purchased. Excellent value! I use them for various tasks, e.g., running a log splitter, when using a leaf blower and power tools. The loudest power tool is a table saw and the ear-muff works fine. And I am serious about protecting my hearing. I now have three (3) DD ear-muffs: one for yardwork, another for the bandsaw or table saw; now one for the engraving machine. BTW, I have been using DD ear-muffs since 2018. Well worth the price and good quality too. No issues with delivery; accurate description as well. Very pleased with their performance. Read more
Definitely notice improved reduction in engine sounds over other ear muffs I've worn while using a chain saw and leaf blowers. Comfortable, even when I use them with ear buds (was worried I couldn't do both). Read more
I have some neighbors with motorcycles....A couple Harleys and some other motorcycle I'm not sure the brand....They start them up....and the instant they press the ignition and the motor starts there is from silence to this sudden loud THUNK which will spook anybody out of their sleep....Then they let the motorcycles idle which is loud in and of itself....And then they just rev rev rev rev.....For as long as 15 to 30 minutes....At the worst times....Early in the morning....really late at night....I have always had super sensitive hearing....And they roll their bikes just outside their garage and start them up....30 feet away is my bedroom window and the wall borders all 3 bedrooms so there is no escaping getting woken out of sleep....I have found some great and comfortable earplugs which I wear pretty much 24/7 because the sound of things such as cars and trucks driving down the road is just so loud to my ears....I wish they had earplugs that were stronger and block out everything....But apparently not....if a person wants complete silence apparently the only option is blast loud music until you go so deaf you need hearing aids to listen to someone talking to you across the table....Anyways....I needed more sound blocking than my really nice and comfortable earplugs because I'm getting blasted with like 120 decibels from these people and their Harleys....which jolts anybody out of deep sleep....I have tried a few of these over the ear muffs and these seem to do a pretty good job, the first pair was I think maybe unbranded....They worked good but soon my ears hurt because they didn't have enough room so the top and bottom of my ears would rub and get sore....I couldn't wear them very long plus they would catch some hair in the side parts that adjust the fit, I tried another brand something like pro for sho.... Or something like that....They work okay....But they were "Made low profile thin" like when somebody buys something to protect their hearing they are going to care about something like that....They worked okay, but before long they seemed to be blocking less and less sound....So I went looking for something else....I decided to try these....They seem to really be doing a good job so far.....Sure they are a tad bulky but I'm not looking for style points....I'm trying to get peace and quiet my hearing vs neighbors Harleys....These so far seem to be doing just what I need....They are also quite comfortable too....They don't make my ears or sides or top of my head sore...They seem to be blocking out noise just like I need if I am going to get sleep....The other brand soon started blocking less and less sound, unfortunately..... Hopefully these will last and won't also start losing sound blocking abilities.....I wonder about how it's listed as 37Db but then it also says it meats the standard max of 34Db.....So is it 37 or 34? It seems to say it's both, which is odd....But so far.....So good.....Peace and quiet even with the jerks next door who make tons of noise with their Harleys at all hours....I like the fact these are so far very comfortable to fit....Even to sleep in..... Hopefully these hold up well over time....At this point, I definitely recommend these, they are big, yes, but they block more sound because they create a good seal and they are comfortable to wear, even for sleep.

These are fantastic. Comfortable snug fit on a smaller head with good noise reduction. I wore them at a car race, and will use them around the house with leaf blower etc. Read more
Finally a pair that work, are comfortable and don’t leave impressions in your head. Highly recommend these. Most items on Amazon are extremely poor quality and don’t functionally do what they are intended to, these are not one of those. Read more
First, the package label says 34 dB noise reduction, not 37. I can only get these to fit on my normally large head by pulling them to full extension. But the ear holes are quite small and will not fit anyone with large ears. Also, the spring force makes these pretty tight. So maybe okay if you have small or medium head and ears. Good noise reduction but not nearly as comfortable as my old pair left at the shooting range. Read more
