There are a lot of low-cost sleep headphones on the market, but I gravitated toward this one because it's one of the few where you can remove the inner electronics to wash the headband. The material is reminiscent of yoga pants, very soft and very stretchy and a better quality than I was expecting for the cost. Some reviews on other sleep headphones mentioned dye leaching into their pillows so I ordered the light grey just as a precaution and have not noticed any dye leaching. The sound quality and volume are mediocre for headphone standards, with a lot of treble and not much bass even when using an equalizer app. I have a beanie hat with built in headphones that's a few years old from a different seller, and a few cheap pairs of ear buds; the headphones on this sleep band are ten times better than those, however. So, sound quality is mediocre compared to other headphones, but extraordinary compared to other headphones at this price point, for this use. The volume on these is perfect. They don't get extremely loud and wouldn't be good to wear if you're looking to block out loud background noise (while mowing the lawn, a sleeping partner that sounds like someone is mowing the lawn, etc) but they are perfect for 'normal' sleep environment. I've used this during a thunderstorm and with a loud fan going and can still hear just fine. So far the battery life has exceeded my expectations. I've listened to a 1-3 hour long sleep meditation track every night since purchasing these, and it seems to take up maybe 10% of the battery for a 1-3 hour track followed by being on but not actively playing anything for 6-10 hours after that. I don't like to let the battery get too low on my electronics, so for me one full charge per week covers all my sleep needs. If I was listening to music for the entire night and the headphones were actively playing something for the entire time, that may be different, but I'm extremely grateful to not have to charge every single night. There is a little square on the forehead with play/pause and +/- controls that I thought would be uncomfortable, but I don't even feel it- even when sleeping on my stomach with my face mostly pressed into the pillow. There are small disks where the headphones are embedded in the headband that you can feel if you press into the material with your fingers, but sleeping on my side with all my weight pressed onto my ear I still can't feel the disks in the headband. These are EXTREMELY comfortable, much more than I was expecting. Every night I wake up and the headband is laying on the bed somewhere, likely slipped off from me tossing and turning in my sleep, but it has never been an issue. I use this to fall asleep and don't expect it to stay on while I'm asleep. The fit isn't too tight or too loose, I just thrash a lot during the night. Even if I accidentally roll on top of it in my sleep, I don't feel it and so far there's been no damage to the unit. Overall, for the price, I am truly astounded at the quality. I paid full price for this product, I was not asked to leave a review, I am writing this because I genuinely love these sleep headphones. They've exceeded my every expectation. If anything changes I'll update my review but for now I'm in love. Read more
I wear this every night to sleep. I always fall asleep listening to a book I have read before, as it gives my brain something to focus on and I drift right off. I have found these headband headsets to be comfortable. The buttons are arranged in good positions for easy navigation. They hold up well for the amount of use I give them. When this one eventually wears out I will not hesitate to buy another. Read more
I use the Fulext Sleep Headphones Bluetooth Headband every single night, and overall I really like it — enough that I keep buying it. I’m giving it 4 out of 5 stars because it’s fantastic while it works, but the longevity has been an issue for me. The good: Super comfortable on my head and genuinely easy to sleep in Stays on all night without slipping around Recharges quickly, which is perfect for daily use Sound is good enough for bedtime audio, white noise, or podcasts without needing earbuds digging into your ears The not-so-good: I’m currently on my third one, because each one has eventually died after about a year of nightly use. So, I’m deducting a star for durability, but if you want something comfortable that works reliably night-to-night (for about a year in my experience), it’s a solid buy. I just wish it lasted longer.

I have brag about how good these work! After you pair them to your phone you will be amazed at the sound quality! The material is very soft on your skin. I have tinnitus in both ears and I was able to find a website with nature sounds that masks my high pitch ringing and wear ALL NIGHT and slept better! I was able to use with hearing aids also during the day! Read more
I was searching for a product that would: 1. Allow me to listen to my phone while in bed, without disturbing Hubby. 2. Prevent ear bud loss. 3. Keep my hair out of my face. 4. Keep my ears warm. I found this product, read the reviews, and decided to give it a chance. I was not disappointed. One of the handy features, is that it comes partially charged out of the box -- enough for you to determine if it is working; it also flashes red/blue when it is time to recharge it. A single charge lasts surprisingly long -- for me, two (2) days. Surprisingly, the audio quality on this sleep band is very good! I'm a side sleeper, yet this did not irritate me, or put uncomfortable pressure on my ear. It did all the aforementioned criteria, and I am very happy with it. Days passed, and it was time to launder it. Removing and reinserting the electronic components was a bit challenging, but I managed it. Imagine my disappointment when I lost audio on the left side. So, back to Customer Service I go, and sent away for a replacement. The replacement process was painless, and I received the replacement it in a timely manner. After charging it, the second one is working well... so far. We will see what happens when its time to launder this sleep band as well. Till then, I would say it is well worth the purchase! Dear Reader, because this is meant as a sleep band, the audio level is adequate for a more quiet environment, without excessing background noise for it to compete with; it does not have superior noise cancelling features. If your bedmate snores loudly, you will hear it, as well as whatever you're listening to. I use it around the house in the early morning hours, when I don't wish to put my earbuds in, and am within range of my phone as I'm making meals in the kitchen -- or when in the living room; this sleep band is very convenient. I simply brush my hair, slip this on as a hair band, and do what I need to do, while the house is quiet. For those who are hard of hearing, and/or use external hearing aids, this may not work for you. I am very happy with my purchase; I will update when I launder this replacement band. Hopefully I will not lose audio in either side. Read more
