 The only earplugs I will wearApr 07, 2009
By C. VanDoren
"chris_v"
I work full time renovating houses. I wear earplugs daily, but only for a short time to operate a saw, etc. Sometime for a few hours when sanding etc. Earplugs on a band allow my take take them on and off as needed. They are always around my neck and are quick and easy to put in. They fit my fat head and are comfortable for relatively long periods. They block sound better than anything else I have used. In short they are near perfect - and I have never found anything else that works anywhere near as well.

Earflex Hearing Protector reviewApr 22, 2011
By Scratch
Great product, great price. I've been using these for a while for basic hearing protection when using power tools, lawn & garden equipment, snow blower, etc. While they don't cut out as much noise as a full earmuff would, that's not their intent. The flex is great feature that lets me move the head band around yet still keep the plugs in my ears. Great when doing woodworking because they're easy-on/easy-off between saw cuts whereas an earmuff would be in the way. db
 OK, but Allen is betterMay 05, 2012
By E. Jennings

This is an okay hearing protector, but I bought it at the same time as the Allen Company Light Weight Low Profile Sound Sensor Hearing Protection, 2320 which costs about 5 dollars more, and I like the Allen better. The AOTekk is good because you can wear it a lot of ways. Because they are attached to each other, is difficult to twist up the second sponge to insert in your ear once one is already inserted. The first time I used it, a sponge broke off as I removed the headset. As mentioned, the Allen is much quieter - I wore both for about 2 hours in a Bobcat cab (very loud) and the difference was clear, the AOTekk was alright, the Allen was good. I wear the Allen over a cap - it stays on just fine that way. Buy the Allen, you won't be disappointed.
You get what you pay forApr 26, 2012

I just received the AO Safety/3M Tekk 350-1001 EAR Earflex Foam Tip Semi-Insert Hearing Protectors I used to use these 5 years ago and most likely purchased them at one of the big box stores. I own my own contracting business so I see alot of different types of hearing protection and I always liked these the best, no string. I recall these being a little more beefed up and better made, more heavy duty but these are not. They are made of very soft plastic and I broke off one ear plug right off the bat. Fortunately there are 2 sets of extra foam plugs that are included in the bag. I think if these are used carefully they will last for light duty for a long time but wouldn't last on a construction site very long. I will spend more money next time and see if I can locate a pair that are heavier duty.
 effective but uncomfortableOct 25, 2011
By outofluck
These are extremely effective. I use them for studying in my less than quiet dorm room. They are wonderful, I can't hear a thing my roommate does, but they are pretty tight. They put pressure on my ears and are uncomfortable for long periods of time. Do not buy for studying.
