3M E-A-R™ Classic™ Earplugs PP01002 Pillowpack 100 Pairs

Great ear plugs. Very comfy and work great. Can sleep well with them.

Found these as an alternative to the previous ones (Noise-X) I used which unfortunately changed their design and no longer worked. The 3M plugs are great. Although they feel hard they mild easily, fit well and are really comfortable. They block my husbands snoring and stay in place all night. I can use the same set of plugs for a few nights. So glad I found these!

I have tried MANY MANY ear plugs. I once bought a sample pack of different sized ear plugs that would suit me best but the best ones would still hurt in the morning. I tried these in hospital because the chemist was selling them and it was a ward dull of snorers. These just expanded and it was bye bye noise! They are not cylindrical with a tapered top, they are straight up barrell shape. You do the same as you would with other foam ear plugs and roll them into into thin vertical shape, the. Insert into the ear cancel. Imfimd holding them in place while in the ear canal for about 30 seconds allows them expand properly. Many people fall into the trap of NOT rolling them up properly and ending up with a mishapen ear plug that ends up sticking out of the ear. You should be able to get pretty much very distant sounding loud sounds, like snoring if you roll them and insert and hold them gently in your ear as the foam re-expands. The snoring noise that is driving you bonkers will die down once they're in. Still faintly rhythmic and loud but it doesn't bother you enough that you would be unable to sleep. So noise reduction is very very good. I've tried multiple brands, makes and other types but so far these ones have definitely been the best ones and no morning ear pain 🙂

Very comfortable earplugs help keep out the noise easy to remove

Good quality, a bit harder to mould than the pink tapered ones but these are far better than the tapered ones for staying in your ear. They also block the sound reasonably well.

Perfect fit block all noises. Really comfortable.

They work at work and while I'm asleep

These are the best so far, although the Noise-X brand are also good (also available from Amazon: Noise-X Bullet Shape Foam Ear Plugs (2 Pairs)-PACK OF 6). They are comfortable if you insert them correctly, push them quite a long way into the ear canal and wait much longer than the 10 seconds advised for them to expand. If you do that they provide good attenuation, although frequencies below about 600Hz are not stopped (I'm still looking for the ultimate urban weekend 'party-blockers'!). Of course the ultimate solution is custom-fitted attenuators as used by rock musicians and their sound technicians, but these are very expensive. Note that the yellow 3M plugs are strictly a one-use item, try them a second night and they do not expand enough to work properly, but they are very well priced and available in bulk so it's not a problem. As others have said the packaging is not as described, but mine arrived safely and I am about to re-order.
