Good for sound blocking, but caused an ear irritation.
The Might Plugs did a great job of reducing sound at night. However, after wearing them for a few consecutive nights, my outer ears developed a mild rash were they contacted my ear skin. That rash cleared when I stopped using these.
They get 5 stars for noise reduction, but reduced to 2 stars since I cannot continually use them as per my need.

Dear David:
Thank you for acknowledging the ultra high sound blocking, but being "all natural", maybe (( one in a million )) customers ever report an allergic reaction to our natural ear plug. (Beeswax)--(Pure Lanolin)--(Sterile Cotton).
We are sending you a (( complimentary )) "sample pack" to see if ear plugs from our latest batch have any adverse effect on you.
Be sure to not contaminate them by keeping them in a clean box.
Kind regards

Didn't like them at all
Didn't like them at all. They are messy got stuck in my hair. And did not work well regarding noise canceling. It was a waste of money. Had to throw them away.

Oh Norma:
You go and retrieve those ear plugs. They're toooooo good !!!!
We know exactly what happened !!!!!!
You were (( too gentle )) and didn't insert our ear plugs far enough into your ear canal; plus you didn't allow our ear plugs to SEAL your ears.
They must have (( protruded )) out from your ear opening to get involved with your hair; and if you had inserted our ear plugs to SEAL your ears, they would have blocked out all the noise.
Norma, if you can get them and try again, you'll be quite surprised.
Sincerely

I found these uncomfortable to sleep in. Much prefer the regular foam earplugs

Dear Shirstine:
Our Beeswax ear plug as it comes, is (( TOO LARGE )) for your ear canal !!!!!!
Each wearer is meant to (( create )) their own size that fits their ear canal.
Shirtstine, you must (( pinch off )) at least 1/3rd and insert a smaller ear plug !!!!
Please follow the instructions below (exactly) and you'll have the HIGHEST BLOCKING, MOST COMFORTABLE Ear Plug in the WORLD in your ear.
1. Just before insertion, take ( ONE ) ear plug at a time, and (work or knead) it between your fingers or hands for at least ( 15-20 ) seconds to make our Beeswax ear plug, (soft and moldable). NOW, if one feels that the ear plug is too large, then most adult women or a men with smaller ear canals usually pinch off about 1/3rd of the ear plug to make it smaller. The smaller ear plug Seals their ear canal better and will feel more comfortable. Then go on to step 2.
2. Then push and flatten the softened ear plug, (a bit firmly), IN and AGAINST your ear opening, UNTIL YOU FEEL the ear plug ( SEAL ) your ear canal.
IMPORTANT: If the ear plug doesn't SEAL immediately, then just keep your finger pressed against it for a few more seconds and it will warm and SEAL PERFECTLY; and be sure to push them in far enough so that the (( whole ear plug )) is in your canal.
3. Now take the other ear plug, and prepare it and insert it (exactly) the same way as the first ear plug.
With both ears SEALED, ( NOW ) LISTEN TO THE SILENCE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shirstine, your satisfaction is IMPORTANT to us so please feel free to call us at the office.

Didn't work as well as other earplugs I've used.
The concept for these earplugs is great, but the actual functionality was minimal. I followed the simple instructions repeatedly and always got the same results: I couldn't keep them in my ears & I could still hear too much noise with them in my ears.

Not as stated
They certainly are not the best earplugs in the world - They are good but still noise gets through , for the price they are not worth it at all. You get the same experience for 1/10 of the price with other products.

My husband snores terribly, I've been searching the web looking for solutions. I was pleased to find yours with positive reviews from other buyers. After trying for 3 nights, I gave up. This product may be a god send for other people, but not for me.

Hard to use
I was really hoping these ear plugs would help but found the instructions minimal and the plugs hard to use
Response from Mighty Plugs: The World's Finest EarplugsMar 4, 2017
Dear Christine:
ON THE CONTRARY !!! It's EASY ( when you know how ) !!
Christine, our special (ultra-high blocking) ear plug is made mainly from BEESWAX.
Beeswax is relatively FIRM>>>>> UNTIL>>>>>> we warm it or until we (work or knead) it between our fingers or hands for 15-20 seconds to make it ( SOFT AND MOLDABLE ).
You do have an instruction card that came with your order, plus we have a video on our website and a website page that shows and clearly informs the viewer how to prepare and insert our ear plugs; but for now, please follow these instructions below and you'll be pleasantly surprised !!!!!
1. Just before insertion, take (( ONE )) ear plug at a time, and (work or knead) it between your fingers or hands for at least ( 15-20 ) seconds to make our Beeswax ear plug, (soft and mouldable).

Uncomfortable
The earplugs are extremely uncomfortable while in place. I even cut them in half and only used half in each ear and they were still uncomfortable. I DID read the directions thoroughly before wearing them. YES I did knead them as indicated in the directions. I have also attempted wearing them on multiple occasions in the weeks I have had them. Maybe it is due to the fact that I am a side sleeper? The silicone based ear plugs are much more pliable and comfortable IN MY OPINION! Please do not ask for my review and then disregard what I had to say about your product! I did not seek out a review for your product, on the contrary I was sent an email asking for a review and simply gave MY HONEST OPINION!
Response from Mighty Plugs: The World's Finest EarplugsFeb 22, 2017
Dear Pam:
ON THE CONTRARY !! Our (all natural) Beeswax ear plug is most noted for being (SOFT and MOLDABLE) and especially COMFORTABLE!!!
BUT PAM: Beeswax is somewhat firm and (just prior to insertion) it needs to be (KNEADED or WORKED) between one's fingers of hands for at least 15 seconds to make it soft and moldable. Once the ear plug is soft and moldable, that is when we insert it.
Our policy is not to speak badly of any other ear plugs, whether they be foam, silicone, rubber or any other chemical material.
Pam, please don't give up on our Mighty Plugs. They'll block out more than any other ear plug and they'll last longer too.
Kindest regards
Mary-customer service
Dear Pam:
Further to our communication:
Yes, as a transparent company, honest opinions are what we want. We want all customers to see ALL opinions.
We haven't received any other similar reports from over 3,500 customers that received ear plugs from the same batch of product as you, but that surely does not diminish your review and experience.
It's important to us; so much so, that we are sending you a (complimentary) sample pair from our most recent batch.
I personally have ear plugs from this batch and they are magnificent.
Pam, when you receive them, kindly contact us by e-mail or phone 800-226-1884 and tell us what you think of them.
Kind regards
Mary
