habituée aux bouchons d'oreilles indispensables pour moi pour un sommeil de qualité. Satisfaite !

Good earplugs, soon time to buy new ones again

I was recommended these by a friend because I was having sleep problems due to noise particularly in the summer. I have tried all sorts of ear plugs and they didn’t do the job.These are brilliant. I have recommended these to my mum and bought a set for my daughter.Recently I was very very ill in hospital. My bed was next to the nurses station and right next to the bells going off 24/7. These ear buds saved my sanity, I slept no problem.There is a nack to these ear buds I have discovered. They are rounded at one end and an odd shape at the other.I pinch and reduces the width of the rounded end and then put it into my ear. I hold it in my ear for a few seconds then let go. The ear buds expand but also partly come out of the ear. Don’t panic that they aren’t working. What they do is nestle into your outer ear and lodges there. I guide the ear buds into that position. You may worry once the ear buds are in position in the outer ear that the inner ear bit isn’t doing it’s job. It takes the inner section several seconds to expand into position too.I appreciate that this sounds a bit fiddly but I promise you it’s absolutely worth the fiddle to get a brilliant nights sleep.Because these ear buds sit into the outer ear, they don’t fall out. I make sure they are in position in the outer ear before I go to sleep. I find them comfortable and soft enough too.I can’t tell you how much money I’ve spent on anything that will block out noise, from expensive Bose noise cancelling head phones (too bulky to sleep in) I have also tried ordinary foam ear plugs and wax ear plugs. These are the only ones I have found successfully.I appreciate that they take a bit of getting use to, to fit into the ear, but they are worth their weight in gold. They block out my partner’s snoring and the birds singing right next to the open bedroom window at 4am!!The only thing I am concerned about is not hearing my alarm going off in the morning.At the moment I’m not working but I will be very soon. So far my brain has acknowledged hearing a faint familiar sound of the alarm. What I’m going to start doing is sticking my mobile phone under my pillow. My other option is to buy a vibrating alarm clock you pop under your pillow. It’s designed for people with hearing difficulties.I can’t be without my ear plugs now every night because they help me get to sleep so much quicker, I’m not laying in bed for over an hour listening to snoring or heavy breathing which drives me nuts! We all need our sleep to be able to function!!

Howard Leight Max lite is simply the best pair of in ear hearing protectionthat I have ever experienced.I can't and won't live without them.
