Have used these headpnones for about a year now and the music quality is excellent. Better bass than what can be gotten through ear buds. The headphones tri-fold into a plastic case for easy storeage. As long as care is used when folding and unfolding the durability of these headphones is fine.
Like all over the ear headphones, these headphones are better used for lounging than for active use. Depending on what acitivity your involved with, the ear peices can get bumped. I wouldn't recommend them for use while driving either because they have a tendency to cancel out background noises quite effectively. That's both good and bad I guess. Also they tend to cause minor ear discomfort after about 2-3 hours of wearing.
All in all if your looking for a pair of reasonably priced earphones these should fit your needs fine.

These headphones seem okay, though are pretty basic. The problem is a tiny piece of plastic that provides a stop to keep tension on the swivel. It is a weak link, and breaks easily. It is a stupid design, cause it is so easy to break and makes the headphones useless. I have a pair I am trying to fix that my sister broke, and she is bummed about it. One does not have to abuse these to break them - a slight bit of pressure and the leverage on the earcup is enough to break the 1mm wide piece of plastic that keeps these on your head. I think I can put something stronger there to make them usable, but shouldn't have to.
