Alpine SleepSoft Ear Plugs for Sleep - Ultra Soft Filter for Side Sleeper - Reduce Noises & Improve Sleep - Reusable, Hygienic, Hypoallergenic Hearing Protection for Adults with Long Lasting Comfort

I first bought Alpine Sleepsoft earplugs in my first year at uni to block out the noise of the couple next door... Six years later and I still use them (although not the same pair!). The Sleepsoft 2015 are slightly different to the previous models. In the older model the filter would eventually end up coming loose and falling out, and every morning I'd have to search around my bed to find it and slide it back in. This doesn't happen with the newer version. When you buy this version it also comes an 'ear plug cleaner' although I can't say I've ever used it... I don't think I give my earplugs the love and care they need, but they still last pretty well. These earplugs are reusable and last me several months at a time, they would probably last you much longer than that if you used the cleaner provided/washed them. The earplugs come in a little plastic case with an applicator to help you put them in your ears (I find if I use this I get a snugger fit than if I put them in by hand). I think when people buy earplugs they often have a particular noise that is stopping them sleeping that they want to completely block out (a noisy neighbour, a snoring partner), and then they are disappointed when they find they can still hear the noise through the ear plugs. These ear plugs do not block out all noise, in fact they don't really block out any noise, instead they dampen/subdue the noise. The best way I can describe it is to imagine you are underwater. I can still hear my alarm in the morning, I can still hear my girlfriend if she is talking to me, but everything is muffled.If your partner is a loud snorer you will probably still hear them snoring, but somehow through the filters in the earplug it's just much less irritating. I much prefer this dampening of the noise rather than blocking everything out, as you don't feel so cut off from everything, and in emergencies you can still hear alarms etc. To summarise, if you want to completely block out all noise, these won't do it. If you want to filter out/muffle the noises/make noises you can't do anything about more bearable, then give these a try.

I would love to order these again, but you have taken them off your listing. Please put them back on so I can buy them. I bought a pack of. I think it was 18 of them and they were really good. Please put them back on so I can get them.

Really comfortable to. I barely even noticed them when I used them. I thought I'd try these because I have birds outside my window that decide they want to sing the song of their people incredibly loud at 4am. Unfortunately, these weren't good enough to stop that racket, but as general ear protection say from like rain or something quieter these are quite good. You can still talk to someone and hear them perfectly clearly. Overall: comfortable and easy to sleep in, but not effective enough for me

Okay, so I think one of the reasons this product has such high ratings is because circa 2018 when I bought my last pair, it WAS amazing. So comfortable and AMAZING sound cancellation. I wore them for 4 weeks of a jazz dance and music festival when trying to sleep through the morning's loud music and slept like a baby! However, sadly I lost one of the pair in 2022 (I know they say 100 wears but why? whatever.) and decided to try replacing them, in spite of the recent cranky reviews... And the cranky reviews are founded. I still use them because I hate those waxy ones that make me feel like my ears can't breathe (should they be able to? haha), but just visually you can see that the construction is slightly different. The plugs are ever so slightly different in size and shape, and presumably given the reduced noise cancellation, they cut corners on material, too (maybe they made the material a tiiiiiny bit thinner?) Anyway. All I can say is: Alpine! For the love of all that is good and holy, can you PLEASE bring back the old make!? PLEASE. I need not to hear my boyfriend snore, but let my ears breathe. I need to sleep through jazz music like a baby. Help me!

I bought these ear plugs after reading many positive reviews. My first requirement, apart from hearing protection/insulation, was avoiding infections. These are easy to wash and disinfect and the material itself very delicate so that your ear canal won't be irritated. I used them for 10 days..I managed to sleep through my alarm twice, which is something extremely rare so I thought they were incredible. I also have small ears so I could barely feel them. So far so good. During those 10 days I had one stuck too deep, so when I woke up I couldn't remove it. I used tweezers and managed to do so easily. Second and final time, because I stopped using them, the right one went far too deep, I could no longer remove it by myself and it became extremely painful. I had to rush to the a&e and waste a day. Because of that incidents, I got an outer ear infection as well. So, I am not recommending these to anyone, unless you re design them, with one material (not with detachable parts because it is dangerous) and if you also attach strings on them so even if they go deep in your ear during sleep, you just pull them out with the help of the strings.

These ear plugs have improved the quality of my sleep significantly. As a side sleeper, it took a couple of weeks for me to get used to the feeling of them in my ears; but now, they are super comfortable because they are fully made of soft silicone, with no hard parts at all. They come with a tool to help you insert them properly into the ear. This creates a tight fit, which reduces noise significantly. The performance is better than Flare Sleeep, and they’re more comfortable too. They also come with a nice case to store them in.

Easy to use and very effective. Comfortable in the ear so no issue sleeping

Having moved somewhere with more noises than I realised (trains, cars, slamming doors, things going on in other flats) I was interested to try some ear plugs that were designed to be reused, rather than going through endless foam ones. Feelings were mixed, though. The good: - True to their description, they gave me a more pleasant 'background' sound than most. They don't attenuate as much as most foam ones, but I found it adequate, and it gave me less of a sense of being 'blocked up' (where the only thing I could hear was my pulse). They are certainly more advanced, and I worried less about sleeping through my alarm (I use the radio) after testing how that sounded. The bad: 1. The silicone they're made of seems to cause two problems: a) They didn't stay in properly. -- they don't 'grip' your ear like foam does. I was forever pushing them back in, half-awake at some ungodly hour. They seem to 'warm' your ear, and the molten wax seem to aid their slippage. b) They seemed to sometimes irritate my ears and I'd want to take them out to have a little scratch -- it seemed like it was to do with heat build-up. 2. In common with other reviewers, the green filter part seems to detach from the main white part after time -- the two are clearly glued and it fails after some months. This leads to the dangerous prospect of getting the white part stuck in your ear -- I teased it out very carefully so as not to 'lose' it, but tweezers were the next thing on my mind! Other reviewers lambasted the 'inserter' they provide, whereas I found it useful and effective at getting them in properly (until they worked their way loose some hours later). All in all, they initially seemed more pleasant, but I wouldn't buy them again due to their shortcomings, and I think the manufacturer needs to revisit how they're put together!

Adoro questi tappi. Sono fantastici. Ho ricominciato a dormire. Grazieeee

Askere giderken yanımda bulunsun diye aldığım ama işin sonunda iyi ki götürdüm dediğim en kritik obje oldu. Horlamanın, öksürmenin hiç durmadığı, kapı ve pencerelerin sürekli çarptığı bir ortamda herhangi bir ses duymadan ve geceleri uyanmadan harika uykular geçirdim. Bazı geceler ses yok herhalde diyip kulağımdan çıkarsam mı düşüncesiyle hareket ettiğimde hiç de öyle olmadığını görüyordum. Yan yatma pozisyonunda da çok rahat, hareket ederken de hiç çıkmıyor kulaktan. Tek dezavantajı; pluglar birbirlerine herhangi bir ip veya başka bir şeyle bağlı değiller. Çok nadir de olsa ters bir uyku pozisyonunda kulaktan çıkabilir. Kaybolma anksiyetesiyle uyandığım geceler oldu (bu sadece askerlik için geçerli bir endişe) Onun haricinde deneyimlerim doğrultusunda inanılmaz bir ürün.

Muy buenos, son cómodos y si reducen el ruido

Bonjour à tous ) Bouchon d'oreille très souple, très agréable à porter, j'en utilise depuis très longtemps, parfois il faut faire une pause, enfin du moins pour moi, sinon je commence à avoir comme un peu d’eczéma, mais j'ai un terrain très allergique, et cela survient après plusieurs mois d'utilisation. à ce moment là ,je fais une coupure de quelques jour, un peu d'huile de calendula avec Huile essentielle de Lavande Aspic (très peu, justes quelques gouttes, ex. un flacon ambré de 10 ml H Végétale on y ajoute 4 ou 5 gouttes max d' huiles essentielles , surtout jamais utilisé seule) Ils atténue bien le bruit, on perçoit toujours mais cela n'est plus agressif. Je suis insomniaque et donc je dors la journée, je vis à Paris, autant dire que ce n'est pas calme, j'habite au 5 étage et j'ai un grand balcon, malheureusement on vient d'aménager, il y a deux ans et le balcon n'a pas été notre priorité, tout ça pour dire qu'au 5 étage avant dernier, le bruit monte et se répercute sur mes doubles vitrages, et bien mme les doubles vitrages ne stop pas les coups de klaxon.....Avec ces bouchons d'oreilles, c'est parfait. Par contre si l'on sonne à ma porte je vais j'entendre, c'est ce que je recherchais. Leurs durée de vie, dépends de votre utilisation, en ce qui me concerne 6 mois( utilisation quotidienne), sauf après qqles mois un arrêt de quelques jours. Ils ont quand ils sont neuf, comme une poudre dessus, à force d'usage et de nettoyage (je les nettoie qd je constate qu'ils commence à se salir) je l'ai nettoie avec du liquide vaisselle bio et de l'eau chaude, c'est impeccable mais je me doute bien que cela raccourci leur vie, mais avoir des bouchons sales, c'est à dire bien jaune, vu qui sont blanc cela ressort, c'est pas trop mon truc :) ils jaunisse bien sur qd mme un peu. Disons que je les nettoie une fois par mois, pour vous donner une idée. Leurs petites boite est très utile ainsi ils ne traînent pas partout. Dans la boite, il y a un truc très dur et pointu, j'imagine que c'est fait pour les nettoyer mais je n'ai pas compris le fonctionnement, je ne peux pas vous aider à ce sujet. Le seul inconvénient pour moi et le prix que je trouve excessif (si vs habité Paris,je vous conseille la pharmacie du Four ou tout y est beaucoup moins chères, c'est là habituellement que je l'ai achète, là n'ayant pas eu le temps, j'ai pris ici, livré le lendemain. Pour cela aucun soucie. Pour moi ils sont géniaux, pas mal à l'oreille quand on l'ai mets, tellement qu'il mets arrivé de l'es oublier en me levant :) (je m'en rends compte 5 minutes après qd je commence à déjeuné) Pour les placer c'est très simple, il suffit de...:) donc pour toutes ces raisons je vous recommande ces bouchons ;) Passez une bonne journée, ou soirée et prenez soin de vous.

Had the Flare Audio Sleeeper PRO (Flare Audio's most expensive ones). Blocked sound well but the material of the buds (memory foams) for me personally, heated my ears up to much (but those are probably fine for most people). These on the other hand, didn't heat up my ears anywhere near that much cause it's silicon. It's actually slightly cool if it's a pretty cool night. Blocked sound very similar to the Sleeper Pro, not much of a noticeable difference. Pulling the ears up and back (or just diagonally backwards) opens up the ear more so you can insert it deeper and get better noise-blocking. The Sleeper Pro might be ever so slightly better than these ones but I've haven't been able to tell the difference. And these are way cheaper too. One downside is the hole at the tip. If any dust ends up in there, it could be annoying to get out. Haven't come across that yet but I have a feeling that might be an issue cleaning-wise. Another is when you take it out, it could feel like your ears are being sucked out, which may cause minor discomfort. A work around is not to pull it straight out quickly, just use common sense. Overall, worth it.
