 Not as good as Max Lite plugsApr 23, 2010
i would give this 3.5 stars if it were an option. on comfort, the reason i bought these, they are quite comfortable. however, they are not that different in comfort from the howard leight max lite plugs i was using before these (which are well reviewed, and amazon has a prime seller selling as "maxlit"). honestly sometimes i think one is more comfortable and then other times i think the other is more comfortable, so there's really no difference at least of meaningful / major difference.
however, the max lites DEFINITELY DEFINITELY seal better. i can hear a lot clearer with these ear soft plugs in than i can w/ the max lites, so that's a negative and a significant one considering i don't want to hear if i have ear plugs in. for this reason of approx equal comfort and better sealing i'd choose the max lite. the max lite also comes in an easier to deal w/ individual package per set (the plastic is perforated plastic and like a millisecond to open whereas these ear soft are a little more cumbersome packaging)
however, one factor that does arguably favor the ear softs is their shape is a straight "bullet" shape whereas the maxlites are a "T" shape. the only difference this makes is the ear softs look cooler coming out of your ears (or maybe better put "not as dorky") and can also be slightly more comfortable to sleep on since there's less material outside your ear. however, even taking this into consideration, i'd rather sleep on the max lites cause they aren't bad to sleep on and the sealing is just so much better with the max lites. i wished i'd stuck w/ what i had and just bought the max lites again.
 Good plugs for motorcyclistsOct 20, 2009
I ride a motorcycle with a medium loud exhaust (about half the loudness of a Harley). These earplugs dampen the sound to just the right level where I can ride comfortably to the hum of my own bike while the sound of traffic is all but muted. They are comfortable (I wear them in 1-hour increments), easy to insert and come individually sealed 2 to a pack. 200 is a HUGE number and I don't know if I'll ever run out of these.
If they didn't expand so quickly they would be perfect. I find myself rolling them between my fingers and then rushing to insert them before they expand. Other than that, no complaints.
