I love these!
TLDR;Really great! They stay in, last longer than other brands, and they're very comfortable. They do not block out all sound and that's an unrealistic expectation. I occasionally have to get my partner to roll onto his stomach if the snoring is bad, but they help to block out enough volume which makes it easier for me to fall asleep. I love these and will be definitely order again if there's no issues.My partner saws logs and I'm a very light sleeper, so I've tried many different earplugs:•The foam ones often felt out throughout the night which meant a lot of nights of suddenly being woken up by his snoring. They also really irritated my ears, no matter the brand. I got tired of having itchy and slightly sore ears.•The plastic ones hurt and also didn't stag in. Same goes for the reusable rubber kind.I tried this style of earplug about a month or so ago and loooooved it. I was buying Target's "Up & Up" brand of moldable earplugs and they worked great! I ran out and thought I'd give this brand a shot and I'm super happy I did!1. They are softer than Target's brand. They also don't get dry out as easily, making them more comfortable in the long run.2. They definitely are bigger and fit better in my ears. I have big ears so I haven't tried cutting them in half to make a pair out of one plug, though I probably could get away with it because of their size.3. They stay in! I'm on my second pair and haven't woken up from them having fallen out. I wore the first pair for maybe 5 days, which is probably longer than I'm supposed to, but I haven't had any irritation thus far.Things to keep in mind when buying earplugs:• They will never block out all sound. That's an unrealistic expectation and will only lead to disappointment. BUT, they block out enough sound that I am able to fall asleep. I can talk with my partner with them in if he's talking at a higher volume, otherwise I can't tell what he's saying and can barely hear him.• No earplug is 100% reusable, including the soft rubbery ones that are similar to earbuds. You would have to meticulously wash those very often and even then there comes a point when they'll need replaced.• I make sure to clean my ears before using these. I think that's partly why I was able to use one pair for 5 or so days. Cleaner hygiene = cleaner earplugs = more use. Shocking! ;P• I haven't used these long enough to comment on whether or not they'll irritate my skin. They might irritate yours as with any other product that comes in contact with skin. That's solely dependent on your skin and body.Reduce, reuse, recycle:REDUCE: This is first in the phrase because it's the most environmentally friendly one can do. Because they're big enough for some people to cut in half, the longevity not only saves money but is more environmentally friendly.REUSE: Again, these plugs can be used more than once which is great. I wouldn't use one pair for a long time but they definitely are not a single-use product.RECYCLE: The plastic case if comes in can be used in so many different ways. It can hold sewing supplies or be used as a small first aid kit, etc. Before you throw it away or even put it in your recycling bin, try to think about what you can store in them which is better than immediately trashing the case. I'm not sure what can be done with the plugs themselves when it's time to retire a pair. But I'm sure there's some way to do so.Give em a shot.

Search is over for your ear plugs
These are my go to ear plugs for home and travel now. I can choose how much I need to block out the sound to reduce the noise. They are comfortable to wear all night. I love that I can customize the fit. I don't think I will ever use them all up you get so many in the pack- get value for the price.

Need a good seal to block out all noise, felt a bit like sticking firm Play Dough in my ears
I got these to pop in when my fiance's snoring wakes me up and keeps me from falling back to sleep. I sleep all over: stomach, back, sides; so I needed something that would stay put and not affect side sleeping. These did pretty well in that regard and side sleeping was perfectly comfortable. In order to completely block sound though you really need to shove these in your ear and create a good seal. Personally, I could almost never block out all sound completely. That didn't bother me too much since it still blocked enough to help me sleep, but if you're looking for complete silence I don't think these will do the trick (unless you have a better ear shape for fitting the seal). Even if you do get a good seal, be aware that you will be able to hear your own breathing. That didn't bother me, I actually found that it helped me relax and get into a nice breathing pattern. They also have a stickier texture than I was expecting, which I suppose helps them stay put but causes them to easily pick up loose strands of hair and other debris. I could only wear a pair for about 3 nights before they started to look yellowish from wax and lint. Part of the appeal was that these were reusable, but they don't seem to last very long, probably 5 nights tops. If I could I would give these 3.5 stars.

Incredible!
These work better than I expected. I stayed at a hotel during bike week in Daytona. Motorcycles 24/7. I put them in before bed, and slept all night. Not a roar to be heard. I was skeptical, not now. I highly recommend them.

Sticky
Very sticky and gooey and get caught in my hair. They are great for cancelling noise but very sticky

Comfortable and easy to use
Great quality ear plugs. I bought them to use for the Air Show and they worked great! They stay in place very well and are easy to mold to the perfect fit.

Avoid - pieces fall apart and adhere to your eardrum!
We bought these based on the great reviews. My daughter had lost her hearing in one ear. Doctors thinking it was an infection, after trying antibiotics and steroids, nothing improved her hearing. While going to an ENT specialist, he found pieces of the silicon stuck to her eardrum! He had to carefully pull it off piece by piece. He was very close to taking her to the operating room because the pain was unbearable. She still doesn't have full hearing back and is going to ENT with a follow up because the earplug pieces caused an infection. Avoid at all costs.

Saved my sleep and sanity
My new upstairs neighbors had become the bane of my existence with heavy footsteps that woke me up at all hours of the night and early morning. These earplugs have saved my sleep and my sanity. Before I got these, I tried the foam type. Those worked really well, but given that I knew I would have to use ear plugs every day, I didn’t want to keep using them because of the potential for compacted ear wax. I tried Mack’s silicone but those were much too large and a bit stiff. These are great. I still have to pinch a little off to make them smaller, but they are softer, more pliable, and very comfortable for side sleeping. They don’t block out all sound, which is great because I can still hear my alarm, but amazingly, I don’t hear the stompers upstairs anymore. It’s such a joy to wake up at the time I want to wake up and to get my sleep routine back on schedule.
