Vanderfields Hearing Protection Ear Muffs for Noise Reduction, 33dB Certified, Noise Cancelling Safety Ear Protection for Shooting, Adult Headphones for Lawn Mowing, DIY, Construction, Woodworking

I like to read while my husband watches TV. These ear muffs are very effective at keeping the noise out so I can concentrate on my book. They fit me but are rather small. If you have a larger head, I’d stay away from them.

Good noise suppressing hearing protectors for the range. I like the shape and adjustments since they are comfortable and don't put pressure nor interferes with my shooting glasses. Light weight but not at the expense of letting "bangs" in. Works extremely well at cutting down on indoor firearm noise and fine outside as well. I used them at a recent rifle shooting competition, and they did fine. The OD color blended into the surroundings and is manly in appearance. Look, I'm trying to protect and save what little hearing I have left after years of firearms, engines, music, motorcycles, and living in general. Recommended.

For me the headset is snug. I can see for someone with a wider head it could be a problem. They muffle the mower and chainsaw sound very well.

Buen producto

I bought a 2-pack. Very tight and fitted earmuffs. I have used a Stihl headset, lost it - and then ordered these. I would say that they are comparable, if not tighter and better fitting than the Stills. Highly recommend these.

They are great use for mowing lawn mostly

Companies love to play games with noise reduction ratings.Vanderfields appear to be no different.They vaguely put 33db certified in the title, but not which standard they are measuring by. Worse, in the description they dishonestly state, "The ear protection for noise reduction ... has been thoroughly tested and proven to reduce noise levels to 33dB, meeting the highest standards set by US regulations." - implying that the 33db noise reduction is the US rating. It is not. Or even that it's the "highest standard", which it is also not.The noise reduction rating system in the USA is called NRR and is regulated by the EPA. A similar but different European rating system is called SNR and is regulated by the EU.Due to differing testing methodologies the SNR rating is always considerably higher than the NRR rating. Companies love to muddle the waters by not telling you which system they are talking about, so that you don't know how much noise reduction their product actually gives you, compared to other products. These companies also notably don't add any charts or ratings in either the pictures or descriptions to clarify things.So I have, so that you know.The 33 is for the much higher SNR rating. The NRR rating is only 26. By comparison, 3M's "Pro Grade" ear muffs are 30 NRR, and their "Peltor X5" ear muffs are 31 NRR. Also note that every 10 db increase in scale means a TENFOLD increase in sound pressure. So yes there is a real difference between 26 and 31.I'm not saying these are bad ear muffs, they are fine, but the description is - at best - vaguely worded. At least know what they're actually offering here before you buy.

Performed well blocking noise.
