Not for me - personal preference

Not for me. These plugs may work for others so this is solely my opinion due to what I prefer. It's really not about the product itself because others may love it. They came packaged nice. As I removed them I noticed right away that they were a play-dough or clay-molding type consistency. From reading others reviews I only used one and split that in half because I have small ear canals. I molded them per the package instructions and put them in my ears. I did not like the residue that they left on my fingers from molding them to fit my ear and putting them in and the thought of that being in my ears bothered me, but I wanted to give them a try. They went in easily and formed to my canal perfectly. I can only compare them to the foam earplugs that I normally wear which are the green ones that look like a torpedo - they have a little extra rim on the end that I use to mold to the outer area of the ear canal to help block the sound. I was not able to do that with this product because it was too pliable and spread too thin. I found them to be the same comfort level as a foam earplug overnight. I sleep with an extremely heavy snorer and found that they did not work as good as my foam plugs to muffle the snoring all night. I woke several times and had difficulty going back to sleep because it just didn't quite block out enough decibels for me. As I removed them in the morning, I used the twist motion so that it would not suck at my eardrums when I removed them and that worked fine. It felt like they left behind a residue in my ear, although that could have been all in my head because of when I formed them the night before and the residue left on my fingers. Also it really wouldn't be a big deal if there was a little residue because it would be cleaned out with the morning shower anyway. Just not for me - others may try them and love them. It is all about personal preference on this one people.
