3M Safety Essentials: Worktunes Earmuffs with Bluetooth + Plastic Anti-Fog Safety Goggles

Off-Label Use/ASD

I am a 30 year old male on the autism spectrum. I've been struggling with finding decent hearing protection from sharp/high-pitch noises, due to sensory processing difficulties associated with ASD. My wife managed to find hollow ear inserts a while back that helped somewhat in restaurants, but I cannot find a pair of headphones or earbuds worth a darn that could also block out noises while mowing and being in other situations where I may want to escape or tune out the rest of the world. My last ...

Excellent durable headphones

Excellent headphone set that is competitive with Bose and other producers of headphones but much more economical. These headphones are great for working in a shop or when using power tools. They are also fine for just listening to music but they the industrial construction while super comfortable makes them best for shop and construction work. Readily connects via Bluetooth to an iPhone and powering them off and on is simple and when powering on Bluetooth and internal battery status is reported....

Poor protection and sound quality.

if your looking for a set of Bluetooth earmuffs that sound like trash and have terrible low frequency hearing protection, these are your set! if you wear these cutting grass you'll go deaf, music or not. My standard red 3M earmuffs are phenomenal, so these were an unexpected letdown.

Finally, decent hearing protection w/ BT playback

Glad to see this newly released version. While the prior version that had the antenna, it reminded me of the AM/FM headphones from the 80’s with the goofy antenna even the BT with Radio looked goofy with the bright safety yellow and rubberized antenna (sorry 3M but it looked goofy), those have been a holiday special at both HD/Lowe’s the past few years except not with a BT connection. Hav’nt had a chance to test them with OPE yet, but I think it will be fine for listening with all my equipme...

Good noise reduction

These are comfortable and connect via Bluetooth to my cell phone. This is actually my second set. The ear cushions wore out on my first ones. You can buy replacement cushions, but my son has been helping with the lawn equipment, so I thought I'd be another set.

Fit my big head and good sound quality!

These were a bit expensive, but I am very happy with my purchase after using these. I have a larger head and these had plenty of adjustability ( I had to return another pair/different brand because of this) for me. Out of the box, I charged them up for an hour or so and then used them for about 2 hours with my backpack blower and my newest podcast. Worked great, relatively comfy and the sound quality was pretty good.

USB Charging Always Quits

I’ve bought 4-5 pairs of these. Well taken care of, used almost every day at work. They work great, but after about 6 months they always stop charging. USB port just stops working. No water damage, nothing, same thing every time. They just stop charging. Newer set just died while in great condition, never dropped.

Blue tooth steals from others

DO NOT BUY THIS UNLESS THERE ARE NO OTHER BLUETOOTH RELATED DIVICES WITHIN 1/4 MILE. The AM/FM/Bluetooth works great. No issues with them except that it will try to connect with devices and you cannot turn it off. When you first turn them on or as you are wearing them the BT is in constant scan mode. Listening to FM and mowing the yard they will connect to the wife's Ipad or phone or neighbor's devices. For some reason it does not require the other person to accept the connection. The wife was l...

Works great until it doesn't

I've had 2 pairs of these headphones. First one lasted 2 years until the charging port became too loose and the micro USB wouldn't hold in enough to charge. Second pair also lasted 2 years until one of the sides stopped producing any sound. Overall not bad since I used them nonstop in my shop, but I'll be shopping around for a better alternative if it means having to replace these every couple years.

I wish this was louder but, I can’t argue about it

I accidentally left my pair in the Louisiana heavy rain, cold and heat for a month and a half. It still had a half charge and still worked fine. The volume could be louder but, that’s my only gripe.
