First Noise Reduction Headphones, Not too bad.

Pros: I purchased these headphones a few months ago in the hopes they would help me escape from reality. They do reduce a very noticeable amount of noise, so much that my husband usually has to walk up to me if I'm listening to something when I have them on. I can hear him if he raises his voice a good amount. But the noise reduction compounded with the music is enough too keep out lots of unwanted distractions. I also noticed that compared to my earbuds, I don't have to turn the volume up so much because I can hear things more clearly. Another feature that attracted me to these headphones was the cord. It's able to stretch a long distance yet pop back into shape without tangling. I love this! There is also a volume control on the phones so you can quickly control volume if you need to.

Cons: The one draw back here is comfort. They are so heavy they give me a headache, literally. I can not have them on for very long because my head will start to hurt and they are constantly shifting due to their weight. Besides the fact that they are heavy, they exert so much pressure to cup your ears that I feel like they are squishing my head flat. I think one of the reasons whey they are heavy is because they are well built. If I dropped these, which I have, I know they will survive without the band breaking.

Would I buy them again? Well, maybe not, I know some comparably priced models that are lighter may not be as sturdy, but comfort is not negotiable. If you want something heavy duty, and don't mind the weight, pick these up. For the price they are good.
