3M Disposable Earplugs For Quiet, Studying & Sleep, 80 Pairs (160 Plugs), Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) 32 dB, Comfortable All Night Long, Light Blue Ear Plugs, Come In Resealable Bag (EPQS-80B-SIOC)

I purchased these last minute for a concert I was going to. I am so glad I did. I found the sound quality was still so great wearing these through the concert and they saved my ears from ringing afterwards. They are really comfy to use and easy to pop in. I would definitely purchase again for any loud event to save my hearing!

I have used several brands of earplugs over the years for sleeping. These are by far the best.I have a noisy family, and I live in a place with a lot of birds. Previously, I was using shooting-grade earplugs for sleeping. In this review I will be talking about why sleeping earplugs will work better, even if they have slightly less noise cancellation.Shooting earplugs work great for blocking noise, but not for sleeping. They use a very stiff type of foam that will crinkle in your ear if you sleep on your side and it moves around or gets compressed by anything, like if it's sticking out of your ear and touches the bed. They are very firm and will put so much pressure on your ears that it can be painful and wake you up, and leave your ears sore the next morning. All of these issues get worse as they get older. Plus, all types of foam tend to deform and bloat in size really easily if you reuse them long enough, which makes foam earplugs very uncomfortable if it is a firm type of foam.Sleeping earplugs have NONE of these problems. The foam stays soft, even when it gets well-worn and bloated. There is almost no crinkling at all. Firm earplugs will crinkle for a very long time (10+ minutes) after compression. This is because the firmness makes them take a long time to regain shape. These soft ones regain shape almost instantly, and I only hear crinkling for 15-30 seconds after significant compression.Although these block slightly less noise than shooting-grade ones, it is worth it to avoid all the problems that super-firm, shooting-grade earplugs can cause. As you would expect from 3M, the foam also seems very high-quality and hasn't had flaking issues like I had with some other brands.These are perfect to wear for long periods of time. I can easily wear them for 10+ hours without feeling any discomfort.

I have bought like 5 bags of these. Very soft and good noise cancellation.

I've been a light sleeper for most of my life, and have used these 3M earplugs over the last 5 years to help improve my quality of sleep. Overall, they do an excellent job of reducing noise levels while still providing a soft and comfortable fit that doesn't leave you waking up with sore ears. My only reason for not giving it 5 stars is because of the quality control variances in the earplugs. Some of the earplugs in the bag are slightly smaller than the rest, and others don't have foam that bounces back into its original shape quite as well. The end result is that the first two earplugs that I grab out of the bag may not provide the correct fit for sleeping and have to be thrown out while I search the bag for the ones that I'm looking for.

Best earplugs I’ve used in the past 10 years

3M quality can’t go wrong

Used these for a recent concert, they work amazing and I had enough to share with friends.Soft, pliableFun colorsCan still hear

I really like this product! I use earplugs at night, every night and I have for the past 10+ years. Finally found one that doesn’t hurt the insides of my ears for wearing at long periods of time. These don’t leave a color behind either, like the orange ones. But the one thing that I really dislike, about half the bag is useless because either they’re old or just lose their shape/sturdiness.
