Mack's Ultra Soft Foam Earplugs, 50 Pair - 33dB Highest NRR | Made in USA

These are nice and soft, the perfect radius, and the right length. Performance is amazing. They compress evenly and then fill out at a good pace (not too slowly). They feel so good in the ear and don't add the usual pressure of most foamies. They block noise better and more evenly than any other earplug I have ever tried, no matter the type. The length is just right. I had to pull one out with the tweezers this morning, and I would rather do that than use a long boy who will jam into my head on the pillow. I am in love. Grab some.

Because my ears have very narrow ear canals, and one of them takes a 90 degree bend and goes straight up, I am particular about my ear plugs. Because I use earplugs for active motor sports, shooting, and chainsaw work in Hawaii, over the ear protection isn't always practical. I recently purchased 5 different brands of earplugs and put them to the test. Here's what I found, sorted for most to least favorite. Mack's Ultra Soft - My personal favorite, and at $0.17/pair, also the least expensive. They share the same small diameter of the Hearos Ultimate Softness, but are a bit more firm and a few millimeters longer. So, for me, they did a better job of subjective sound dampening, and were a bit easier to grip and pull back out. My tests are mostly in warm weather. In very cold weather, these could be too firm for some users. The Mack's and Hearos Ultimate Softness both shared the same smaller diameter. Hearos Ultimate Softness - These were the softest, most comfortable plugs I tested. At $0.18/pair they were the second cheapest, and also my second favorite. My daughter doesn't like earplugs, as they really bother her ears, but she was at least able to tolerate these. I think most people would be pretty happy with these, however, they were not my favorite for two reasons. First reason is that they seemed to stop slightly less high-pitched sound than the other plugs. All the plugs are rated at 33 db, but that's because that is all they are allowed to be rated. Subjectively, these were at the lower end of sound blocking, but still adequate for most tasks. My only other "complaint" is that these seemed to take the longest to spring back to shape and fill the ear because they are very soft, and they are somewhat shorter than the Macks. This makes them feel a bit like they might fall out for the first minute or two, and their 2-3 millimeter shorter length makes them every so slightly more difficult to grip and remove. Both minor complaints, and these are very good plugs. Hearos Xtreme Protection - As the name implies, subjectively, these blocked the most sound of all the ones I tested. They have the same larger diameter as the 3M plugs, but are easily twice as soft/half as firm. They gave a very full feeling to the ears, but were not uncomfortable. At $0.39/pair, they were the most expensive plugs tested. They were the most effective and were quite comfortable, but the Mack's were 95% as good, and less than half the cost. These went into my shooting kit and would be my third selection, for use when max protection for a shorter wear period is ideal. Flents Quiet Contour. These plugs have a bell shape. I did not find that the shape made any improvement to sound dampening. These were on par with the Mack's for noise suppression. The downside of the wide end is that there is more material in your outer ear, which could be uncomfortable for some, and also perhaps less aesthetically appealing. However, if you're in charge of safety compliance, that extra bit makes it much easier to visually see that someone is wearing hearing protection, and it did leave more to grip for removing the plugs. At $0.30/pair, these were the second most expensive, and I do not recommend. 3M 1100 - These are what was issued to me for my 22 years of military service, and the benchmark from which I was judging. About the only positive thing I'll say about them is that they came individually packaged by pairs, so you can carry or store them in dirty or wet environment easily, but these were absolutely the least comfortable of the ones I tested. I paid $ 0.27/pair for them which puts them in the middle of the pack price wise. For me, they are much too firm, and also have the largest diameter of the group. In very cold weather, they would be nearly solid. They quickly made my ears sore/itchy. As much as I usually love 3M products, I do not recommend these. For those who care about such things, I tested these several ways. I wore each pair for about an hour just to get subjective feel for long term comfort. The exception was the 3M, which I could not leave in the entire hour because they were uncomfortable. Then to test for noise reduction, I put one brand in one ear and a different brand in the other ear and work for half an hour, then switch ears. During the test, I listened to speech, music, traffic noise, etc, and noted which plugs seemed to be most effective.

These earplugs help me reduce a huge amount of sensory input. They do not block every sound, but they block a ton, and that makes a real difference for me. With Asperger’s, ADHD, OCD, and a brain that is basically a never-ending holodeck, reducing outside input is not a small thing. These help quiet the world enough that my mind has less to process. They are soft, comfortable, portable, and easy to use. They roll down well between the fingers, fit snugly into the ear, and then expand inside the ear canal to help create a good seal. Ear size is subjective, of course, but these fit me well. The pink version is smaller, so that may matter if regular foam plugs feel too large. I would not treat these as waterproof swimming earplugs. I have washed them in the closed bin of the dishwasher to get a little extra life out of them after ear and finger oils build up, and it works temporarily if I am running low, but they are not perfect afterward. When I need even more sound reduction, I pair them with over-ear hearing protection, and that combination blocks almost everything. For sleep, focus, overstimulation, portability, and reducing the amount of noise coming in, these have been extremely useful.

I bought these hoping they’d help me sleep through my cat scratching at the door in the middle of the night. Unfortunately, they didn’t fully block out that specific noise, but I can definitely tell they reduce sound overall. They’re very comfortable to wear, even for extended periods, and don’t feel irritating or painful in my ears. The foam is soft and expands well, and the quality feels solid. While they didn’t solve my exact problem, they’re still a good option for general noise reduction.

These earplugs are great when you're in a situation that is too loud. They are very soft, and form fit into your ear. They work well and great to have in your pocket for unexpected noise.

I’ve always used typical styrofoam earplugs that you can get from any big box store or drugstore. The problem with those, however, is that they do work, but they can be uncomfortable and sometimes they take a while to get placed just right. Sometimes the foam is so stiff that it’s hard to compress enough to fit securely in your ear. Nevertheless, the sound dampening when these are placed correctly was worth the discomfort. I was tired of that. So i decided to try those wax earplug things. I didn’t like those since i found the noise dampening effect minimal, i was worried that the wax would get into my ear canal, and bits of the wax would get in my hair or even on my pillow. No thanks. Next up was the earbud style plug. I was excited about these since I’ve used them during the day to help filter out noise outside, and I’m a big fan of things that are reusable. The particular set that i bought came with a number of different sized earbuds, so you could find what worked for you. Nice concept, but the earbuds were not for me. I found them uncomfortable, so i always ended up taking them out in the middle of the night. The noise dampening was better than with the wax, but still not great. I was also concerned that the little earbuds i placed over the bigger part would get stuck in my ears and cost me a lot of money to remove. One day, i simply couldn’t find these in the morning after removing them—it’s as if they went to another dimension. I still haven’t found them weeks later (i do not have a messy bedroom at all!), so the universe was telling me to get something else. I did a search for foam earplugs since i was tired of experimenting. I needed something that worked since I’ll be visiting a friend soon and taking my white noise machine is not an option as they have a dog. That’s how i stumbled across Mack’s earplugs. I never heard of them before, but they seemed solid. They are more than just solid. They are fantastic. They completely blow the wax and earbud style plugs out of the water. They are superior to standard foam plugs. The noise reduction factor is 33 decibels, which is great, but these are also super comfortable. They are deceptively soft and lightweight. You roll them and they respond so well that you’ll think they can’t possibly do anything. THEY DO. They compress easily and glide into your ear canal. They expand quickly and dampen the sound beautifully. These are so comfortable to wear that i leave them in overnight. I’m a customer for life.

Excellent product. I reuse them and they are very strong, soft, comfortable, easy to insert, and last very long. The noise reduction can be adjusted by how far they are inserted.

Only works for small ear openings. Very narrow design. I figured out that I have to put them in my ear BACKWARDS to get a tight fit!

I worked out that I was spending quite a bit of money at the chemist by waxed ear plugs, six in a pack. I thought to buy the foam ones in a container that contains 50. Its so much cheaper and more economical. The only place I could find these was Amazon. I really feel that this is far better value than what I have been purchasing in the past. They work just as well as the waxed ones. They can mold somewhat to the shape of your ear and keep both water and noise out if you are swimming or sleeping. Great buy all round.

These earplugs are designed for a variety of uses, including sleeping, traveling, and attending noisy events. Pros: Superior Comfort: Made from Comfy Cush Comfort Foam, these earplugs are designed to be ultra-comfortable, adapting to the shape of the ear for extended wear.

Cons: Size Fit Issues: Users with smaller ear openings might find these earplugs less comfortable, as their size can cause discomfort or inadequate fit in smaller ears. Not Completely Silent: They significantly reduce noise but do not block it completely, which may not meet the needs of those requiring total silence. Morning Discomfort: Some users report feeling discomfort when wearing the earplugs for an entire night, noticing them in their ears upon waking. Final Thoughts: Mack's Ultra Soft Foam Earplugs offer robust noise reduction and are highly recommended for their comfort and effectiveness. However, those with smaller ear canals should consider the potential fit issue before purchase. Despite this, the earplugs' overall performance, coupled with their endorsements and quality manufacturing, make them a valuable choice for many looking to reduce noise exposure in various settings.

I highly recommend this for sleeping. I'm working shift hours as a firefighter. After many years in the service, I’ve developed sensitivity to sounds. Probably because during night duty, we have to be alert even during our short naps. These earplugs solve the problem when I want to sleep at home during the day after my night duty. Not only it is very soft and comfy, but it also blocks surroundings sound very well. I'm a side sleeper and I can hardly feel any uncomfortable effects from these earplugs.

These are great, when i roll them up to stick in my ears they don't instantly puff up like cheaper earplugs, which gives me more time to get them into my ears. They block out my downstairs neighbours bass-y hard stomping(the guy stomps so loud it shakes my pill bottles)completely and they also block out the noise from vehicles on the busy road next to my house, these did cause my ears a bit of discomfort after a week of wearing every night but i have very narrow ear canals(i used to get water stuck in my ears when i went swimming as a kid), these plugs ARE very comfortable and soft but i should have gotten Mack's smaller earplugs. If you have normal ears or are just gonna wear them for short durations it'll be fine. They are way better than the earplugs i bought from Shoppers drug mart and way cheaper too. They are well made and come in a nice flip top container. They are very soft and squish down very very small so it's easier to get them into my ears and they stay squished down for longer than the Shoppers earplugs which gives me more time to get them into my ears. Mack's makes a wide variety of different earplugs and i feel like you can't go wrong with these if you have normal sized ear canals, i don't, but i should've bought Mack's smaller plugs instead but that was my fault and i won't take stars off for something that i did. TLDR: These are great and they block out all the sounds that wake a light sleeper like me while i sleep. They are cheaper and better than the Shoppers drug mart earplugs too.

Çok yüksek bir ücret verdim Amerika'dan geldi ama bu kadar yüksek ücret karşılığında beklentileri karşılayamıyor ne yazık ki bir daha almam
