Noise-X Earplugs Wax Cotton 6Pr

They are good but fall out through the night which is a pain when you are a shift worker

It's great how it's a good price & free delivery, they are easy to shape but i find them sticky to take out my ears also they shrink quite quick

Good old fashioned wax ear plugs. Can get a bit tacky. Best effect seems to be softening the ball and keeping the ball shape and carefully pushing into outer ear .

Good thanks

All good no complaints.

Having been driven almost to a padded cell by the screaming and shrieking of children at an adjacent school, I am happy to say that for the first time today I have felt no need for a water pistol to cope with the constant racket. These earplugs cancel out all but the most strident screeching and therefore fulfil their purpose very well. I don't see the need for the pink cotton-wool coverings that each one is surrounded by but it is something to do with your hands, I suppose,removing it before blocking your ears, so I hope it is not part of the package, so to speak. Time will tell, no doubt. The earplugs themselves are of the consistency of semi-hard chewing gum and are easy both to insert and take out; I haven't found them to be sticky but I understand the criticisms of other more delicate buyers. The most important thing is that they don't hurt your ears either while you have them in or afterwards - actually the MOST important thing is that they block out the din. I'm very happy with them so far.

The earplugs block out noise well and don’t fall out

Unlike the other reviewer I rather like these earplugs. I even think they are the best anyone can ever get. I use earplugs A LOT to block out the noise in the big city. I live beside three railway lines where they are always working at night and I prefer wax earplugs which you can use and throw away for hygene rather than foam ones you can't.You can mould these to your own ear size and being soft wax they don't cause a build-up of pressure in your inner ear. Before I used these I used Quies (French wax earplugs) as they were they best alternative but as their wax was hard you had to hold them in your hand to soften it before you could put them in. Even then there was usually some pressure build up. Then when if it got cold at night they hardened up and fell out! Noise-x are lovely, soft and reliable, you hardly know you are wearing them.Oh, and BTW ... if you feel you ears are getting blocked up with the wax (which they shouldn't do actually as it doesn't rub off) do as my doctor suggests. Clean your ear canals out twice weekly with cotton buds (Q tips for Americans!).
