3M PELTOR Optime III Earmuffs, Headband, 35 dB, H540A-411-SV, EN 352-1 | Earmuffs with Headband, Hearing Protection Against High Noise Levels in Industrial Settings, Black/Red, 1 per Package

I bought this as I'm sensitive to noise at work and for long plane rides. It is meant to be a substitute for ear plugs. It works very, very well. The muffs are surprisingly big in size, you will look a bit weird wearing it I suppose, but I'm fine with it. For its size, it is actually pretty light, and feels really light when you're wearing it. The head band is adjustable for most people's head size, mine is pretty big (I had to buy XL bike helmets) but it still fits well with some room to spare. Will work under a helmet as well, maybe not as comfortable but it's still fine, since the head band lies flat across your head, same as the metal cables connecting the muff to the band.The sound proofing is very good, but you can still make out what others are saying, which is a plus. It's comparable to wearing a set of good ear plugs, but way more comfortable for long periods. It's circumaural, so it covers your ears entirely. The muffs press lightly but firmly on your head, creating a seal, but it's not that uncomfortable in terms of the heat and humidity, as good as it could be I guess. I would have paid 3 times more for this product.

Spot on. Comfortable, size is perfect, cuts out noise just as the spec sheet specifies. Absolutely valuable for money. Designed so well. This is the same one u see being used by the airports as well, so ur ears are protected.

Durable and good performing ear defenders, been used for work 5-6 days a week over 1 year and still good. Dropped on the floor a few times(≤ 5) and no noticeable damage, only once it felt like noise attenuation in left ear wasn't working anymore but nudged it a few times and adjusted the cup over my ear, something clicked and it worked again.The deep ear cups help against heat and if you're so inclined ear buds fit inside, although comfort may vary.Probably should had bought a hygiene kit 3-6 months ago but that's still good value if you're using it for work and better care can be taken at home to avoid replacement.Still can hear people talking if that's a requirement but going forward they will be replaced by 3M Peltor X5A, at least for home use.

Work on an oil tanker and these ear defenders blow away any of the other ones we have on board.All vessels I have been on have the Optime brands so they must be doing something right for their price point.Only drawback is that the “hygiene kits” which are the replacement pads are quite expensive for what they are which drops a star.

Adjusting these is a little awkward, and I found I had to bend them back a bit so they'd fit my big head, but other than this these are excellent. I had the 3M foldable ones before and the noise reduction wasn't as good, and they weren't very comfortable. These are soft and comfy, and muffle noises very well - it's makes my washing machine sound much quieter and also less annoying. The earmuffs also feel more roomy, so good for bigger ears. Glad I bought these.

A perfect fit, and it blocks out just the right amount of noise for a busy workshop. The padding is soft and comfortable unlike some cheaper makes. Overall they are brillant.

Used these on noisy sites, near generators, and during grinding work—these earmuffs mean business. 35 dB rating blocks out serious noise, and the double-shell tech keeps sound out without feeling bulky. Headband’s padded and adjustable—sits firm without crushing your skull. Cups seal well even with a cap or hoodie underneath. Red/black finish looks sharp and stands out in the kit pile. If you want hearing protection that’s comfortable, reliable, and built for loud environments, the Optime III is a proper bit of kit.

As a sufferer of tinnitus it’s a must have. I go to a noisy Church every Sunday and it saves my hearing from getting even worse

Good quality Peltor as always!

Acheté à la lecture des avis précédents que je confirme:Amortissement exceptionnel des bruits environnants, le casque, certes volumineux mais d'un maintien parfait (ne glisse pas), est léger, ne comprime pas les oreilles, bien toléré sur une longue période de travail. Le système de maintien par la nuque permet de porter un couvre-chef. L'arceau rigide sur les casques traditionnels est remplacé sur le casque reçu par 2 lanières textiles avec velcro qui permettent éventuellement de le maintenir selon la méthode traditionnelle ( Cet accessoire ne figure ni dans le descriptif ni sur la photo).Un produit ultra-performant pour un coût modique.

Uso le 3M Peltor Optime III da un po' e, per chi come me passa le giornate a usare macchinari rumorosi, queste cuffie sono la svolta. Dimenticatevi i tappi per le orecchie che dopo mezz'ora danno fastidio o che perdono efficacia: qui siamo su un altro pianeta a livello di isolamento.​Perché le consiglio (senza giri di parole):​Abbattimento del rumore: Quando usi il decespugliatore o la motosega, il calo di decibel è netto e immediato. Non senti solo meno rumore, senti proprio un silenzio profondo che ti protegge la testa dal mal di testa a fine giornata.​Struttura e comfort: Nonostante siano ingombranti (perché l'isolamento richiede spessore, punto), le porti per ore senza che ti strizzino il cranio. L'archetto è regolabile e rimane in posizione anche se ti muovi molto o sudi.​Qualità dei materiali: Le imbottiture attorno alle orecchie sono morbide ma resistenti. Non si sono ancora screpolate nonostante la polvere, il sudore e le vibrazioni tipiche di quando sei in mezzo al bosco o in giardino.​Affidabilità: Sono costruite per durare. Non hanno giochi meccanici strani nelle giunture, il che significa che non si allentano col passare del tempo.​I compromessi:​Ingombro: Sono voluminose. Se devi lavorare in spazi estremamente angusti, tieni presente che sporgono, ma è il prezzo da pagare per avere una protezione di livello superiore.​Calore: Essendo molto isolanti, d'estate le orecchie scaldano. Ma preferisco sentire caldo che tornare a casa con le orecchie che fischiano.​In sintesi:Se cercate un giocattolo leggero per fare giardinaggio leggero, guardate altrove. Se invece usate attrezzi pesanti e volete proteggervi sul serio, queste 3M sono un investimento obbligatorio. 5 stelle meritate per la costruzione e l'efficacia brutale nell'isolare i rumori molesti.

Produit de très bonne qualité ,atténue le bruit des machines de façon optimale . Pour les hommes qui en on marre de se faire saouler par leur femme, fonctionne très bien aussi
