I have used these for over 30 years as I am a light sleeper and anything wakes me up. Have tried many other brands after I couldn't find them in the stores but none worked like these. Started ordering on line and hope they're never discontinued.

I used these earplugs for about 30 years. About 5 years ago, the wax content steadily declined and the plugs became hard and unusable. They used to be the best on the market, but now I find about 9 or 10 of the 12 earplugs in a package to be worthless.

I shoot Cowboy Action Shooting. I do everything I can to protect my hearing. I have used all kinds of earplugs, plastic, rubber, or foam and by the end of the match, my ear canals are sore or raw feeling. I had a custom set done by an audiologist. They were bulky and heavy and they also collected sweat and directed it into my ears canals. I was always taking them out to tip my head and drain my ears. These plugs, when warmed in the hand before shaping them and putting them in fit great! They block plenty of sound, they mold right to your ears and they are light. My ears are small and I have to cut them in half.. not long ways, but sideways. So, I get a pair from one. I keep the ones I have used in a bit of wax paper between shoots and I found that I can reuse them a few times over. I have also used them while sleeping and it greatly reduces the sound from a snoring husband! I highly reccommend these ear stopples

For over 30 years I was using Flents soft wax earplugs - until the company was purchased by
Apothecary. The quality has steadily declined as the company appears to have reduced the wax content. I now buy Ohropax which is much more effective and comfortable to use.

I HAVE TINY EAR CANALS. THESE DO NOT HURT, EVEN WHEN LYING ON YOUR SIDE. EXCELLENT JOB OF BLOCKING OUT NOISE.

I have been purchasing this product for more than 20 years. Over the past 2 years the product has changed, but not for the better. There is more cotton and less wax in the composition of the product. This make the ear plugs less soft. They are also smaller than they used to be and less effective.

There appears to be a serious quality control problem. When I received my most recent order 2 of the packages contained the less soft ear plugs while 2 other packages contained the original much softer ear plugs. The softer version is excellent. The harder version is basically worthless. Until their quality control issue is resolved, I do not recommend purchasing this product.

I've tried them all. And these are by far the best. More expensive than foam and silicon but the most comfortable and effective at noise reducing.

I have been using the Flents soft wax-cotton earplugs for many years, because they are the only type I have tried that are not too scratchy for my ears. Unfortunately, they are impossible to find in retail stores anymore, so I was glad to find them online.

My favorite earplug. They stay in my ears, unlike the rubber ones or the foam ones. The only downside is that they could have a higher noise blocking rating. But other earplugs have similar ratings. The only reason for not giving it five stars. I hope they don't stop making this.

As a swimmer, I have tried just about everything on the market..Ear Stopples are the best for keeping water out, and for muffling noise if you need a good night's sleep.
