Loop Earplugs

[PoodlesRUs]

Has anyone tried them? Did you have Quiet, Engage or Experience and did they work well for you?

I have the quiet ones. You do have to make sure to put them in properly to work. I wore them on holiday to drown out DHs snoring and a noisy a/c unit. Slept like a log, couldn’t hear a thing.
If they’re not fully in your ear with the loop part flat to your ear they aren’t effective.

I have the quiet 2 ones. Very good for getting in the zone. I can still hear things like doors banging but it stops dh's work calls annoying me when I'm trying to work upstairs.

I've got engage, I use them at the theatre or pictures, The music/noise is too loud and I get overwhelmed. They are good for that. I did try them at work, they did the job of deadening down noise but I then struggled to hear customers who I did need to speak to, particularly with others talking nearby.

I sleep with the quiet ones and they have been brilliant. I’m such a light sleeper, I don’t want to be able to hear nothing at all, as I have a toddler, but they really reduce the noise and I sleep so much better. I don’t find them uncomfortable but you do have to find the right size for you.

I have all three and use the experience ones for gigs and the quote ones to block DH snoring and to sleep at festivals.

There’s a knack to getting them in right but once you do they are very effective.

I've got Engage and Switch and love them. They do not block out noise but make everyday sounds more tolerable.

I have ADHD and they (1) help me not be distracted by things like electricity and dripping water (2) help reduce the cumulative effect of noise that drains my energy and reduces my focus over the course of the day.

You can get cheaper ones from Temu etc if you want to try out the concept - I'm not sure what the quality would be like though!
