Just what the title says. Adding shipping costs, it was $4.00 per unit for a little piece of foam. I needed them, but I'm going to try hard to find a local source.

I wanted to buy screens for regular microphone. I do not know what to do with these small ones.

I really can not tell the size by looking at the picture when I was ordering this.

These are decent (average) quality. They are quite tiny - and quite delicate - beware of damaging them! They are attractive, and do what they are supposed to do.

But the vendor's pricing of this tiny little item, which cannot have a production/transportation cost exceeding 99 cents each, is so exorbitant as to not be funny. The advertised LIST price of these tiny simple foam puffs is near $40 - and even at $17 or so, it is absurd. Hopefully there will be some serious retail competition soon, and drive the price of these down where it belongs, near a dollar or two each, instead of nearly $4 each.

Perfectly fine little windscreens, if you have tons of money. I consider this price a retail gouge, and have rated it thus.

Works as advertised and lots of cool colors. I teach Spinning and it really helps to have this muffle the breathing noise. A bit expensive, but these should last for a long, long time. Definitely made for a small microphone headset. Have had these for about 5 weeks and so far still working on the first one so they do hold up!

These are very good quality! I love the fitting and the colors!
I order one package every year. Some times I lose them or they wear down due to sweat and make-up over time, so I find I need a new pack once a year.
They last a year. I interchange in every class according to the mood of color I am in :) I teach a lo of different gorup exercise classes.
Some complained how expensive they are. They actually are much cheaper than specialty store prices and they are good quality. Consider these.

As already indicated by other reviewers, the price point for these windscreens is on the high side. With five in the package, I'm hoping not to have to reorder these anytime soon. I do wish the item description gave more specifics on the size. These are intended for small headsets (not hand-held microphones), so I bought them to use when I teach aerobics. They are a snug fit, but they do the job. Using my own windscreens is better than sharing the community ones in my gym with all the other instructors... especially during cold & flu season!

SAMSON SAWS5E WS5E, IS WHAT I WAS NEEDING FOR MY CAMERA CANON XL1. YOU SENT ME THE LITTLE ONES FOR MICROPHONE AND THIS PRODUCT IS NOT GOOD FOR MY CAMERA. IN A FEW DAYS, A WILL ASK IT AGAIN BECAUSE I NEED IT.

I recently purchased a Blinc M1 headset for my motorcycle and the microphone screen the unit came with was cheap and flew off after a week of riding. Although it killed me to pay so much for a small piece of foam these mic covers fit snugly and work well.

I ordered these to use on a couple of lapel mics I have. They fit perfectly and appear to be of a good quality foam. They look like they will also fit the boom mic on my motorcycle helmet's communications system. The originals are rough to the touch and these are nice and smooth.
They are a bit pricey for little bits of foam but if you have Amazon Prime or can get them shipped free the cost isn't so bad. They seem much better than other cheaper windscreens I've used.
