I carry these in my purse, all the time. I never know when a musical or movie will be way too loud for me so it's nice to be able to dial down the volume. And the music at the gym dance classes is definitely WAY too loud. Yes, I'm also getting old.Now, it is weird at first and it does take a little getting used to to put the wax and stuff it inside my ear. I also have long hair that's thinning so I work really hard to try and tuck my hair away so it doesn't get stuck in with the wax and then pulled out when I pull the wax out afterwards.I will reuse them a couple of times and then just toss them. In theory, I could use them more but I try to find the sweet spot between not being too wasteful and not being gross.I choose the clear ones so that from a distance people wouldn't notice that I have them in. And, unlike the foam type, it seems to take less time to fit inside. with the phone type I found that I would need to have a finger holding the foam in my ear for quite a while while it slowly expanded out again and then occasionally it would feel almost painful inside, causing me to pull them out and squeeze them down and then start the process again. Since I experimented with this type, I've never wanted to go back.I haven't tried them through airport security yet… But then, their standards keep changing.I hope my brand loyalty to this product will continue across a few more decades.

I am an extremely light sleeper so I started using foam plugs when my wife started snoring quite a few years back. First I tried the conical ones then the cylindrical plugs. My internal ear canal never really allowed for a tight fit so I thought I'd give these wax ear plug a go. Boy am I glad I did. They block almost all sound and stay in place all night. They are harder to remove than foam plugs but that is tiny price to pay for finally getting a solution that does exactly what I need them to do. I reuse them (fastidious ear clear) so I expect that this box will last me a year or more.

Works as should, got them for my son for in the shower as he has tubes in his ears and deals with chronic ear infections, dr recommended them and they work great, used a pair for sleeping and I didn’t hear anything

I have larger ear holes than normal, so foam plugs are often loose and fall out. These wax pillows are far superior to foam ear plugs. They are more comfortable and block out more sound.I can use one pair for 2-3 weeks, so one box lasts a long time.

They mold right to your ear and block out most of your partners snoring. I love them!!!

These are excellent earplugs for blocking out sound (I have to sleep with earplugs in as I'm a light sleeper). These work better than any other earplugs I have tried. And, they last a really long time for uses. However, two things happen frequently. The first is that they sometimes "melt" so much that they work themselves deeper into my ears while I'm sleeping to the point that it causes discomfort. I've even had to peel them out of my ear a few times. The second is that they semi-frequently "pill" apart and leave little wax "beads", in varying sizes, literally stuck in my hair. Sometimes it's so bad it's like I have really light gum in my hair (it's easy to remove but is definitely a pain). I've had pieces of earplug stuck in my ear crevices of my ear, too! It's quite bizarre.

These are actually very good at blocking noise. I've been using a competitor's brand for several years so I think this is a fair comparison. These are a bit smaller than the competitor but not by much. I reuse my ear plugs several times before discarding them. The competitor brand looses its "stick" after a couple of wearings whereas this product retains theirs, making reuse more possible. They stay put in the ear for the entire night which is a bonus. I would give these a two thumbs up.

I tried foam earplugs but they stick out from my ears and do not block high frequency noise very well so aren't ideal for sleeping. These provide the best seal and noise reduction I have tried yet and are very comfortable for sleeping. The only comfort issue is that they can create a bit of a pressure vacuum as they seal so well.The case is usable but feels incredibly cheap, it would be nice to include a few or improve the durability a bit as I can't imagine it adds much to the cost.The biggest issue with wax plugs is that they accumulate stray hairs, including pet hair, if you use them to sleep and roll around while sleeping. Longer hair near your ears can also get stuck temporarily in the wax but it's pretty easy to dislodge. They can also leave a very slight coating of wax residue but it is honestly much less than what I was expecting and doesn't bother me and seems to dissipate quickly.Regarding reusability, they hold up well and I can see them being reused at least 7 to 10 times but not much more than that.For me these have been incredibly useful in improving my sleep. Since I have begun wearing them, I sleep more deeply and have had dreams every night whereas before I was dreaming much less frequently and being woken up by noise every day. So far I am impressed and happy with them, I will see how they work in the long term.
