Difficult to get working properly
I tried using the plugs many times for over a month and didnt get the required performance on most occasions. Even with a "seal" formed as per supplied instructions, it was often possible to hear what was going on much more than my usual traditional foam plugs. I looked at the instructions again and again trying to interpret them differently. I watched the online video and found it doesnt really address the problem of how to correctly insert the plugs. So i found myself manipulating the plugs a lot to stack up material near the entry of the ear canal to create a thicker physical barrier to sound. I use them when sleeping and generally lay on my left side. When i removed the left ear plug today i found that it had somehow gotten quite far in my ear and some material got stuck inside. I couldn't hear properly! I had to go to a doctor to have it removed. UPDATE _______ Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately you havent read or understood my comments properly. I have stated that i did not push the ear plug into my ear canal. I said i had to pile up more material near the entry (i.e. outside) in order to get reasonable sound blockage. The material got lodged deeper in the ear overnight. Im also disappointed at your response suggesting "ear plugs are not for you". Ive used other "traditional" earplugs for years with no issues - the type you actually do need to insert inside the canal!

Oh Bhavik: With all your difficulties; we are sure of one thing; Our ear plug or ear plugs in general are (( not meant )) for you!!!! Pushing the ear plug so far into the ear canal (( was surely not )) what our website video demonstrated. Bhavik, we suggest the following; do not use (( ear plugs )) to block out sound; use ear muff -headphone styles. It's safer for you. Most sincerely Mary-customer service
