AlpineSleepSoft 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

Have used Alpine ear plugs at night for several years, this most recent design seems more comfortable and more effective than previous models. Doesn’t totally stop noise but is good enough that noise doesn’t interfere with my sleep. Easy to put in, easy to remove.

Great, soft and very comfortable ear plugs. If pushed far enough into the ear, local sounds can be heard when awake, but when asleep sounds are not heard, ensuring better quality undisturbed sleep from snoring or noisy children 😊.Small case they come with is really helpful to prevent loss. Easy to clean and put away in the case.

I recently tried these earplugs for sleep and found them to be quite comfortable and effective, especially if the noise source is in a different room. I had no trouble sleeping on my side, even with multiple piercings, including a conch, which can be an issue with other earplugs that push on them. However, if your partner is a loud snorer and is in the same room, these earplugs will not block out the noise completely. They do reduce the sound slightly, which can help you fall asleep due to the quieter environment, but after a week, the snoring becomes the new normal, and I find myself struggling to sleep again. I’ll continue to use these as a spare pair or when my partner happens to fall asleep after I do, but for snoring-heavy nights, they aren’t a perfect solution.

Very comfortable but you can still hear things through them. You have to push deep into the ear to get any cancelling. This was a problem for one of my ears as I have a really narrow canal - I ended up buying childs version for one of my ears and adult version for the other… I wish this came in more than one size as childs version is not as comfortable. If you have small canals, be aware.One thing I didn’t like is that silicone started turning brown after just a few uses despite regular washing. It will probably continue discolouring which sucks. If they couldn’t use more resistant materials then at least should’ve chose a different colour!Also, case is made from a smelly material so i ended up throwing it away.

Well I will start off by saying that these were recommended as number 1 on three different websites that I looked at - and even though I have never paid this much for earplugs before I was pretty happy that it was a decent buy.However firstly - they provide NO noise blockage, if I can be three rooms away wearing earplugs and STILL hear the TV and have a conversation about it there is a problem!Secondly - the way they work is that you screw them into your ears, not knowing how far you have actually gone in. DANGEROUS. Not to mention Downright painful if laid upon, so forget sleeping with them in.Pair that with lack of clear instructions and the "cleaning aid" simply being a pointy stick, massive waste of money - now I just have sore ears and a suspicion that this may be a fake item - since why would it be rated number 1 if it is so bad?Trying to get a refund...not looking good.UPDATE AFTER SPEAKING TO THE SELLER:Apparently my ear is too big for them, which is why why don't work - I tried these because my ears were too small for all the foam ones!Very rude and short person! I really wish I could give below 0

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.
