Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

After nearly a month I am pleased with these. They are comfortable and allow some outside sounds to reach the listener (the Wife) when necessary. Comfortable, even when lying in bed listening to an audible book. The long cord kind of gets in the way (as did a short cord on the old ones) but is worth the very minor annoyance to place the audible reader where I want it. UPDATE -- Sept. 17, 2018 Bought these in January 2018 and by the end of August stopped working. Out of warranty. They weren't expensive but I only want them for audio books, I'm functionally blind and unable to read print without complicated electronic aids. If these headphones had lasted at the very least a year I would have updated with a 2 or 3 stars. I recently purchased KOSS UR 20 for a few dollars more and I like the fit and look better (also an 8' cord) and I hope they get longer trouble free use.
