3M Individually Box Wrapped Ear Plugs Pack 50

Before landing on 3M, my wife tried the other cheaper options available in pharmacies, but the expensive 3M's were simply the best - at least for her, so it was great when I found them online in bulk packs of fifty pairs for about the same as 4 pairs in the pharmacy. Considering the price, I was first a bit skeptical if it was the real 3M ones, but it was - at least the ones we got.My wife uses them every single night now, and they do wear out and gradually block less and less noise. Still, I think our first pack of fifty pairs lasted nearly two years before we reorderedI am quite sure these were also the same ones we got when I was in the Norwegian Navy, to protect our ears in the field or used in addition to the over-ear hearing protectors on the shooting range. We didn't wear them often (It was the Navy, after all, and not the Army, and we didn't shoot much), so two pairs lasted me my full five years there.Update 13 November 2019: I think this is the third or fourth time we've reordered these now. They are still the best value for money in quality ear plugs.

Great product best one I have used so far

Comfortable to wear, they help me to sleep when it’s windy & noisy outside.

I have tried many many types of ear plugs always hoping for the mythical perfect noise-silencer, and these are the closest I've ever found.You may have seen these on the high street in slightly different packaging, but rest assured they are exactly the same product for a vastly cheaper price.The best thing about them is that they are lovely and firm, which makes inserting them easy as they keep their rolled shape for longer. There's something very satisfying about feeling them gradually expand in your ears and listening to the background noise slowly fade away.Their biggest (perhaps only) disadvantage however also seems to be in their firmness - once they've been used, they never expand back to their full shape, thus each time you use a pair their effectiveness diminishes a little more. This is in contrast to the softer types (e.g. Howard Leight) which always seem to keep their shape. One pair of these 3M/EAR earplugs will last usefully about three or four uses.On the plus side, they never hurt my ears as some products do; there seems no way to predict which makes will be painful and which won't, but despite their hardness these are comfortable for me. And a brand new pair blocks out noise better than any other ear plugs I've tried.

Have used them for years as am retired and am constantly woken by neighbours building works. You get so many in a pack, great value.

I’ve used many ear plugs as I cannot sleep with any noise and they’re the most comfortable, you can use one pair 2-3 times

Absolutely brilliant ear plugs, they block out the sound of snoring and the dreadful noise my husband's CPAP machine makes but I'm also still able to hear the phone ring and the smoke detector if it goes off. I prefer these plugs because they are a bit firmer than the others which makes it easier to insert them into my ear. I paid a very low price which means I can use a new pair every night but if you choose to you could use them twice or even more. If you live with a snorer or are bothered by loud noises keeping you awake I would really recommend these plugs and add to that the excellent customer service I received when I had an enquiry and the very speedy delivery to the Outer Hebrides (1 day) you just can't go wrong.

Been using these for 20 plus years, I can’t sleep with noise and these enable me to sleep, they are comfortable and fit well. They are easy to remove.
