To the one struggling to decide which ear plugs to get, I hope this helps. I spent hours, if not days, researching ear plugs on Amazon. I ended up with 8 different ones because, well, I’m indecisive. Many of these didn’t work for me due to my own weird ear anatomy but I wanted to give my experience with each and what I’d recommend given your situation. Everything is subjective, but I hope this helps someone else as the previous reviews helped me. I’ll put my quick summary first and the details after for those wanting more info. *The pink ear plug is an average run-of-the-mill ear plug for size comparison.To summarize:If you have shorter ear canals and more sensitive ears I would recommend Mack’s Thermafit, adult/kids silicone ear plugs, or Hearos Softstar foam. If you have average ear canals and want the most noise blocking I would get Howard Leight. If you prefer contoured earplugs and find them to be the most comfortable then get Flents Protech Contour. If you have very narrow (but not short) ear canals, then get Mack’s slim fit or Flents Protech Sleeping.White Hearos Softstar foam:These ear plugs are wider than most but shorter and the foam is very soft. They are comfortable and didn’t hurt my ears, even when laying on my side. The foam is so light and fluffy though it lets in more noise than other ear plugs. If comfort is most important to you, you’re a side sleeper, and you don’t need complete silence, these are for you.Tan Mack’s Thermafit:This was the last pack of ear plugs I ordered to try and I finally found the right ones for me. The foam expands more quickly and is a bit rougher texture than others but once you get it in your ear it is just as comfortable at the Hearos and blocks as much (if not more) noise as Howard Leights and silicone. If you have short ear canals, want something comfortable that blocks out the most noise, try Mack’s thermafit.Purple Mack’s Slim fit:I have somewhat smaller ear canals but these were too narrow for me. They didn’t block any sound and despite them being thin, they are still long. If you have very narrow ear canals that are an average length, these would be a good choice for you.Dark Green Howard Leight low pressure:Howard Leights are soft and I found that they blocked out the most sound out of all the ear plugs I tried. They are a bit long for my ears but I just have short ear canals. If you have average ear canals and want the most noise blocking ear plugs, I would recommend these.Light Green Flents Protech Contour:I like contour ear plugs because my ears are sensitive. These are pretty large ear plugs and not the best for those with small ears. They were the best price of all the earplugs I tried. If you have average-larger ear canals, are a side sleeper, or prefer contoured ear plugs, these are for you.Blue/White Flents Protech Sleeping:I thought these would be my Goldilocks ear plugs after I liked the regular Protech contour ones but found them to be too big. Well these were way too small. They fit in my ears easily but don’t block any noise, much like the slimfits. I can still hear the clock ticking, the traffic, my dog snoring everything. I’m so bummed! If you have tiny (and I mean tiny) ears and like the contoured foam, I would get these.Mack’s silicone ear plugs (orange kids and clear regular):As someone who generally hates having things deep in my ears, silicone ear plugs sounded like the way to go. I found the clear ones to be huge and I was having to cut them in half so I ended up getting the kids size. They are comfortable and are good for side sleeping. They also block out a lot of noise. My issue with these is that they tend to suction to your ear which is uncomfortable and you can hear your heart beating in your ears. I think it’s something you can get use to though. If you hate foam/regular ear plugs, have small or sensitive ears, and want to still block a lot of noise, I’d try these.Of all the ones I tried, I found Mack’s Theramfit to be the best all around.Happy sleeping!
Like Chesney, these are the one and only.
Best earplugs I ever had and I tried many. Others would fall off or make my ears sore.
These are quality foam earplugs and block out noise for quality sleep. The softer plugs don't work as well.
Works well.
These are my favourite ear plugs for sleeping. I have to cut a tiny bit off the end for side sleeping. They sometimes fall out but only when asleep. They are good at reducing noise and don't irritate my ears (I had repeat problems with some earplugs - the audiologist suspected I was allergic to the material in some foam plugs).I don't use them every night but useful for if there's building work outside or staying in a noisy hotel.I've bought more since discovering them.
The best 👌🏻
These are without doubt the best earplugs. I used to buy Flents Quiet Time until they changed to plastic. These are even better. The downside is you can only use them a couple of times.
Good quality and good value sized pot
These ear plugs are without doubt the very best I have ever used. The foam is soft and extremely comfortable. Unlike other brands, Mack's cause no irritation. Highly recommend these for anyone :)
Comfortable & they work
Great product which is a replacement for the one Boots UK used to do. They are very much the same which is excellent.
Best ear plugs I’ve come across
These have a smooth surface, which work just as well but don't irritate my ears like the more porous 3M brand. These are harder to roll and put in, however, because they don't hold their shape long enough to slip as far as needed into the ear canal. I'll put up with the challenge, though, because they're so comfortable and work very well.
Very prompt delivery , highly recommend earplugs, comfortable and easy to wear
Bom
Het is mij zeer goed bevallen , de dopjes , dempen veel, heel goed.Voor mij zijn dit de beste oordopjes die ik tot nu toe gebruikt heb .Het zijn wasbaar dopjes en erg zacht en zitten erg prettig .Ik gebruik ze voor diverse dingen zoals Motorrijden ....slapen .....en ze zijn niet zo duur ook !
2nd time of ordering these so they do work
Bought to replace the discontinued Boots Foam Ear plugs, and I can confirm these are a far superior option.Easy to insert, better quality and far better sound proofing of partners snoring.
love these. I wear at work at the bar all the time. I like that they're beige so less visible. more discrete. ability to soften loud music without impairing ability to converse with people around me in loud setting
These are the best earplugs I have found! Comfortable and convenient. The best part is now I can actually get some sleep next to my snoring husband!
Did the job
100% of efficiency!
If you were disappointed when they discontinued the Boots Soft Foam earplugs, then these are the best option! I bought so many brands and found them incredibly uncomfortable- these do the trick! They look the same as the Boots ones, but I actually think they may be better, as they block out my husband’s snoring much better that the Boots ones ever did!
Fancastic at keeping noise out and very comfortable
Ne ho provati molti ma questi sono gli unici che funzionano alla perfezione
These are just like the reusable ones boots used to sell. Work much better than the bullet shaped foam ear plugs.
Brilliant earplugs. I find them very effective and comfortable. Always sleep better when I used them.
I’ve been using earplugs for years and usually rely on Boots’ own-brand memory foam plugs, which I actually prefer over the Max Thermals. While Max offers similar decibel protection and are very comfortable to wear, I’ve noticed they lose their structure quite quickly. After just a few uses, they become smaller and denser, making them less effective, and ultimately, they have to be thrown away.In comparison, the Boots earplugs are more durable and washable with a gentle detergent, so I could reuse a single pack for years, which made them much more environmentally friendly. Unfortunately, Boots have been out of stock for a while, and Max is the only alternative I’ve found that comes close in terms of comfort and noise reduction.I’ll keep using Max while needed, but I really hope they explore a more sustainable option in future, either through more durable materials or by offering a reusable version.
Ear plugs are very good but can be a bit tight if you have smaller ears. There was no discomfort and they did keep the noise out. Shame they don't come in a smaller diameter.
