Peace&Quiet PQ Wax Ear Plugs for Sleeping, Swimming - 15 Soft Noise Cancelling Silicone Gel Wax Earplugs for Sleep and Swimmers, Ear Protection with Sound Blocking Level of 32 Db, (15-Pillows)

I keep coming back to these. I keep trying different earplugs because I need something that cuts the decibels a lot. I’ve used some that are silicone and work better, but they hurt my ears. These are second best, but they are very, very comfortable. The only reason I like the other ones is because they have an incredible seal that blocks all sound. The pain, however, wakes me up, and the point of the earplugs is to sleep better — so I do recommend these a lot.

Highly recommend for someone who has trouble sleeping with noise. Blocks out a lot of noise. Very comfortable and fits perfectly.

Works well canceling out noise, noise reduction, and stays put through the night and comfortable. Only 4 stars because if you have long hair, be prepared to have it stuck in the wax.

Work well. I have hypersensitive hearing. I can still hear slight muffled noise but overall these have been the best otc plugs I’ve tried. Comfortable, easy to mold and fit. I use 1/2 a plug in each ear which fits my smallish ears perfectly. Roll the piece into a ball and press into place. Great. The down side is the hot weather makes them a bit sticky. Use a damp finger to press into place. Also my long hair gets stuck to the plug at times. My fault.

I love them. I sleep like a baby with no background noise and their very comfortable and reusable! Always clean your ear before and after each use! Great price!

Block noises VERY WELL. I live in a wooden two floor complex apartment, any footsteps upstairs used to wake me up. I've tried different ear plugs, until I got these. No more sleep disruption, no more waking up at 5:30 am (yes my upstairs are early birds). Took it to every camping trips as well, works well in wild too. Comfort hasn't been a problem when I was trying out different ear plugs, but these ones are certainly at least above average. I use every pair for about a month, it just gets darker and smaller after a month and I don't like that. But if you don't mind it can easily last much longer. Tried to wash it once, works well after wash.

Are you still going to hear the lawn maintenance guys, the roofers a block away, your loud neighbors and that choo choo train if you use these ear plugs? Yes, you will. They were comfortable and muffled the noise a bit, but not enough to keep the noise from interfering with my sleep. I gave them up after a week. I think these would be good for a rock concert if you wanted to HEAR the music, but wanted to reduce the decibel level enough to save your hearing. But, they were no good for sleeping. I should have purchased the noise canceling headphones instead.

I'm very happy with these. I have tiny ear canals (as in, in-ear XS earplug tips are still painfully too big), so having an option that does not go inside the ear is extremely helpful.For me, these cut off more sound than the Loop Quiet 2 earplugs (which are supposed to be -24db) without the "muffled" feeling of earplugs. How much sound they block for you compared to earplugs may vary depending on how well earplugs fit you personally.I have not slept with them. I use them for dogs barking outside, roommate noise, and office noise. I also used them at a concert while taking a break from my loops (since the XS tips hurt my ears after a little while even though they are not fully inserted), which worked well for me.They feel high-quality. Mold easily. Feel pretty comfortable and soft. I would consider them to be a good value for the cost. They do not seem to fall out easily once squeezed into shape. It's pretty obvious when you have it correct - just squish it until it feels like it's blocking sound and is staying put.For me, they do NOT fully block out dog barking from outside (though they dovery significantly reduce it), but I have higher than average hearing. For the average person, I would expect these to make you pretty much deaf. Adding this in case it's a helpful reference point for someone.
