Sennheiser DeskMate Dual-Ear Corded Office Telephone Headset with Noise-Canceling Microphone.

I'm a over the phone interpreter, and I had constant migrane from using other headset that came with plantronics at first which I can only wear on one side. With that, I had hard time concentrating because other parties were on speakerphone and their volumes were really low. I got a cheap one from ebay which helped me hear better, but I still had migrane. It made little bit of buzzing noise even when I'm not working. Since I had good experience with senheiser headsets for my music playback, I decided I'd give it a try for work. Result was AWESOME. People on the other end would put their phone on speakerphone and drop something or move something on the table that would make very loud noise before, but Deskmate takes good care of it. Also, I used to suffer a lot when other party presses keypad for some reason (maybe some still have trouble with touch screen) but that issue has been fixed because Deskmate lowers volume of those unwanted sound. However, I'm not able to wear it for long time because I wear glasses. It gives me pain in my ear and after work, it feels like I have water stuck in my ear (no, it's not my sweat)ProsReliable performanceGood noise cancellationDoesn't hurt ears when other party presses on phone buttonsConsWearing glasses? Your ears are gonna hurt. I wish they have around ear type instead of on ear type of headset

I purchased this item 1-1/2 years ago, and now the cord, just below the headset, has split open. The only way to fix it, is to replace the entire headset. I didn't expect this from this manufacturer, which usually produces a quality product. Also, is supposed to be noise-cancelling, but apparently not so.

So I ended up purchasing this headset and two of the cords that I thought would work with my office phone system. I didn't do any research like I should have or call Headsets.com to figure out what cord is compatible with this headset and my particular phone system. Not very smart on my part. When the headset arrived I tried out both cords, one did not work at all and I was going to send it back but thought I might keep it just in case my office switches phones up which they have been known to do on occasion. The other cord that did actually work with the phone caused people on the other end to hear me muffled and there was a humm on their end.It seemed to still work though so I just assumed the quality of the headset was not that great or maybe my office phones just sucked. Even with the issues I was having with the headset it was still way more comfortable then my office issued one ear headset so I was going to just live with the way it was, not perfect.Headsets.com kept sending me emails wanting me to give a review of the headset but since I wasn't 100% satisfied with it I couldn't give an honest 5 star review so I held off. Then the last email I received they asked if there was a problem with the headset I could contact them and they could assist if I was having any issues. I actually thought I was using the right cord but turns out after responding back and telling them my problems I wasn't.I spoke to Jordan at Headsets.com who gave me the correct cord part number and said he would be willing to exchange it for the wrong one I was currently using. He even sent the new one with a prepaid return shipping label to send the wrong one back in and I got it in 2 days! Tried the new one at work immediately and it works FANTASTIC. 5 stars for the headset and 10 stars for Headset.com's follow up and assistance with getting the correct cord I needed hassle free! Now that is the way to do good business. Very Happy.

This headset is NOT sound proof as it states. Be vary if you work from your home.

Finally a headset with a truly clear mic!!! After testing countless, eventhough this one is pretty expensive, especially as you also have to buy the $35 adapter for mobile phone, the sound quality of the mic is - according to call recipients - perfectly clear. The package even came with a handfull of toffees. Classy attention of OfficeRunner (the seller). Only 4 stars because on the other side, tI have had much better for sound quality of headphones themselves.

these headphones cancel out noise effectively in what we call "bro-row" in our office enough that people can take conference calls and listen to conferences effectively. they should tell you that you might need an adaptor to connect the headphones to most office phones because you have to wait to order that part as well if you're uninformed(as we were).

works great, but came with a tiny hole in the cord from the headphones to the phone jack. we're patching it with electrical tape because we need it operational now. just hope it lasts.

Have tried several headset microphones here at our company because the noise level in here is very high. This headset is the first that I would consider to be a truly noise canceling microphone. That in and of itself gives it 5 stars, as that was my primary purpose! Don't forget to buy the "extensions" - this alone will not connect to anything at all, you need the adapter.Don't buy this if you're looking for "the most comfortable headset" or "the most durable headset" or even "the headset with the best sound" - you will be disappointed. But if your pain point is the microphone being noise canceling, this is your headset!

Headset is very comfy. Customer service at 1800headsets is very good. My phone needed to use an amp to go with the headset. All is setup now with the 2.5mm adapter - all working great Thanks!
