Alpine SleepSoft Ear Plugs for Sleep - Ultra Soft Filter for Side Sleeper - Reduce Noises & Improve Sleep - Reusable, Hygienic, Hypoallergenic Hearing Protection for Adults with Long Lasting Comfort

I first bought Alpine Sleepsoft earplugs in my first year at uni to block out the noise of the couple next door... Six years later and I still use them (although not the same pair!). The Sleepsoft 2015 are slightly different to the previous models. In the older model the filter would eventually end up coming loose and falling out, and every morning I'd have to search around my bed to find it and slide it back in. This doesn't happen with the newer version. When you buy this version it also comes an 'ear plug cleaner' although I can't say I've ever used it... I don't think I give my earplugs the love and care they need, but they still last pretty well. These earplugs are reusable and last me several months at a time, they would probably last you much longer than that if you used the cleaner provided/washed them. The earplugs come in a little plastic case with an applicator to help you put them in your ears (I find if I use this I get a snugger fit than if I put them in by hand). I think when people buy earplugs they often have a particular noise that is stopping them sleeping that they want to completely block out (a noisy neighbour, a snoring partner), and then they are disappointed when they find they can still hear the noise through the ear plugs. These ear plugs do not block out all noise, in fact they don't really block out any noise, instead they dampen/subdue the noise. The best way I can describe it is to imagine you are underwater. I can still hear my alarm in the morning, I can still hear my girlfriend if she is talking to me, but everything is muffled.If your partner is a loud snorer you will probably still hear them snoring, but somehow through the filters in the earplug it's just much less irritating. I much prefer this dampening of the noise rather than blocking everything out, as you don't feel so cut off from everything, and in emergencies you can still hear alarms etc. To summarise, if you want to completely block out all noise, these won't do it. If you want to filter out/muffle the noises/make noises you can't do anything about more bearable, then give these a try.

Great earplugs I use for sleeping keep the noise out and soft in the ear also comfortable

I recently tried these earplugs for sleep and found them to be quite comfortable and effective, especially if the noise source is in a different room. I had no trouble sleeping on my side, even with multiple piercings, including a conch, which can be an issue with other earplugs that push on them. However, if your partner is a loud snorer and is in the same room, these earplugs will not block out the noise completely. They do reduce the sound slightly, which can help you fall asleep due to the quieter environment, but after a week, the snoring becomes the new normal, and I find myself struggling to sleep again. I’ll continue to use these as a spare pair or when my partner happens to fall asleep after I do, but for snoring-heavy nights, they aren’t a perfect solution.

I bought these earplugs as I have insomnia and have trouble sleeping through loud noises like fast cars/motorbikes and even quieter noises like rainfall. However, I also use an alarm each morning..the Alpine website recommends these earplugs for that exact purpose, 'Noises such as your alarm clock, doorbell or children can still be heard.' They also claim to be 'Very comfortable due to soft AlpineThermoShape™ material'. The earplugs also have a 'minigrip' feature so that you can easily remove them from your ears, and they also claim to be 'especially designed for (side) sleepers.' I have worn these earplugs for three nights and firstly I must say they are very good at cancelling out noise, some very loud noises can still be heard but not enough to disturb you. However, that's about as good as they get. I could hear my alarm but not enough to wake me up fully so I would not recommended you buy these for that purpose. Mainly I did not find them comfortable enough for sleeping. I am a side sleeper and the minigrip feature was very uncomfortable, they stuck out of my ears too much and pushed against the pillow which lead to me trying to find a comfortable position for a while which was irritating. Although the feature does make it easy to remove the plugs so I would say they would be very practical for day time use but I personally definitely wouldn't recommend them for bed. Maybe a bit of a rebrand is needed? For earplugs called 'sleepsoft' you would expect them to be perfect for sleeping. I'll stick to my regular and much cheaper foam earplugs for the night time as they don't stick out of my ears and I can turn from side to side with no disruptions.

Have used Alpine ear plugs at night for several years, this most recent design seems more comfortable and more effective than previous models. Doesn’t totally stop noise but is good enough that noise doesn’t interfere with my sleep. Easy to put in, easy to remove.

The product itself is excellent and easy to use. It provides a fair level of noise attenuation. They are also comfortable to wear through the night. But beware of vendors selling this item at double the Maximum Retail Price. The MRP is Rs. 1,199. Use that as a reference point, and don't be cheated.

li ho acquistati insieme ai tappi loop, più famosi anche grazie alle pubblicità, per vedere quali sarebbero stati i migliori. questi mi sono stati consigliati da un amico e non ero molto convinto all'inizio, mi sembravano più scomodi in foto, ma una volta provati mi sono ricreduto. sono molto molto comodi, completamente morbidi e rimangono saldi dentro l'orecchio grazie alla doppia auricolare, questo li rende superiori ai loop che invece sono uguali a delle auricolari classici e non rimangono fermi dentro le orecchie. la cosa migliore è che tenendoli anche per 8 ore non ho nessun dolore alle orecchie. isolano molto bene, bisogna metterli bene per isolare al meglio, se sentite ancora troppi rumori toglieteli e rimetteteli finchè non sentirete solo il silenzio. unica nota negativa è la difficoltà a volte nel toglierli, perchè la linguetta per estrarli se messa rivolta verso la pelle non si riesce ad afferrarla con le dita, però basta capire come fare in modo che la linguetta risulti lontano dalla pelle per risolvere

Muy buenos, son cómodos y si reducen el ruido

Habe sie bereits zum 3. Mal bestellt und bin sehr zufrieden! Tragegefühl sehr angenehm! Die störenden Geräusche werden sehr gut gedämmt! Man hört ehrlicherweise trotzdem lautes Schnarchen o.ä. - aber wesentlich leiser und gedämmter, sodass es nicht mehr zu sehr stört. Auch den Wecker hört man noch 😉 Da ich gelesen habe, dass sich offensichtlich die Größe verändert hat, habe ich die neuen mit den zu ersetzenden verglichen: die neuen erscheinen optisch tatsächlich kleiner. Beim Einsetzen habe ich aber keinen Unterschied bemerkt - sie sitzen immer noch genauso gut. Ich denke, dass sich das Material der Ohrstöpsel einfach mit der (Trage)Zeit etwas verändert, vielleicht auch durchs regelmäßige abwaschen. Laut Hersteller sollte man (je nachdem, ob sie täglich genutzt werden oder nur hin und wieder) die Stöpsel nach 3-6 Monaten ersetzen. Bei mir hielten sie jeweils an die 6 Monate. Dann veränderten sich die grünen Einführhilfen vom Material her. Es scheint weicher und verformbar zu werden - für mich dann das Zeichen, neue zu bestellen 😉

Bonjour à tous ) Bouchon d'oreille très souple, très agréable à porter, j'en utilise depuis très longtemps, parfois il faut faire une pause, enfin du moins pour moi, sinon je commence à avoir comme un peu d’eczéma, mais j'ai un terrain très allergique, et cela survient après plusieurs mois d'utilisation. à ce moment là ,je fais une coupure de quelques jour, un peu d'huile de calendula avec Huile essentielle de Lavande Aspic (très peu, justes quelques gouttes, ex. un flacon ambré de 10 ml H Végétale on y ajoute 4 ou 5 gouttes max d' huiles essentielles , surtout jamais utilisé seule) Ils atténue bien le bruit, on perçoit toujours mais cela n'est plus agressif. Je suis insomniaque et donc je dors la journée, je vis à Paris, autant dire que ce n'est pas calme, j'habite au 5 étage et j'ai un grand balcon, malheureusement on vient d'aménager, il y a deux ans et le balcon n'a pas été notre priorité, tout ça pour dire qu'au 5 étage avant dernier, le bruit monte et se répercute sur mes doubles vitrages, et bien mme les doubles vitrages ne stop pas les coups de klaxon.....Avec ces bouchons d'oreilles, c'est parfait. Par contre si l'on sonne à ma porte je vais j'entendre, c'est ce que je recherchais. Leurs durée de vie, dépends de votre utilisation, en ce qui me concerne 6 mois( utilisation quotidienne), sauf après qqles mois un arrêt de quelques jours. Ils ont quand ils sont neuf, comme une poudre dessus, à force d'usage et de nettoyage (je les nettoie qd je constate qu'ils commence à se salir) je l'ai nettoie avec du liquide vaisselle bio et de l'eau chaude, c'est impeccable mais je me doute bien que cela raccourci leur vie, mais avoir des bouchons sales, c'est à dire bien jaune, vu qui sont blanc cela ressort, c'est pas trop mon truc :) ils jaunisse bien sur qd mme un peu. Disons que je les nettoie une fois par mois, pour vous donner une idée. Leurs petites boite est très utile ainsi ils ne traînent pas partout. Dans la boite, il y a un truc très dur et pointu, j'imagine que c'est fait pour les nettoyer mais je n'ai pas compris le fonctionnement, je ne peux pas vous aider à ce sujet. Le seul inconvénient pour moi et le prix que je trouve excessif (si vs habité Paris,je vous conseille la pharmacie du Four ou tout y est beaucoup moins chères, c'est là habituellement que je l'ai achète, là n'ayant pas eu le temps, j'ai pris ici, livré le lendemain. Pour cela aucun soucie. Pour moi ils sont géniaux, pas mal à l'oreille quand on l'ai mets, tellement qu'il mets arrivé de l'es oublier en me levant :) (je m'en rends compte 5 minutes après qd je commence à déjeuné) Pour les placer c'est très simple, il suffit de...:) donc pour toutes ces raisons je vous recommande ces bouchons ;) Passez une bonne journée, ou soirée et prenez soin de vous.
