I love them! September 5, 2008 I've had these for a few weeks now. They work great, and sound great. I use them to hear talk radio over the internet, and music on my computer and ipod. No more tangles and everything is MUCH NEATER!
I'll be buying another pair for myself soon.
Worthless September 4, 2008 Within 30 seconds of getting the headphones out of the clambshell packaging, I had already broken the winding mechanism. (My mistake: pulling on one side of the winder without simultaneously pulling on the other side.) My husband used some tools to reset the wires on the winding mechanism and then I was off to a good start. Fast forward 6 hours later, the first time I listen to the headphones, and I tried to re-wind the cord afterwards. The winding mechanism did not work, and I looked down at one of the wires and noticed exposed copper wiring! I am NOT rough on equipment, this is just a shoddy product, I can't imagine it working for anyone.
would not buy again August 25, 2008 I usually don't write reviews, but this product had a couple of shortcomings I thought should be mentioned. The sound quality is decent, however the following are dealbreakers for me....
1) The cord is not long enough- when fully extended, it is only about 31", not enough for me to have an ipod in a deep pants pocket (and I am under 6' tall) 2) the retraction on my pair stops 1/2 way and I must help the cord spin back in.
Not impressed with these headphones August 18, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
These work ok for what they need to do. The sound is ok but not stellar. I like to listen while I run so I took the metal clip and hooked it onto the white winder for the cord. Otherwise it slings back and forth when I run and my earphones fall out. The cord does not wind up easily, and 2 days after I got them I noticed the plastic is tearing on the cable because it was caught in the winding mechanism. The cord is very short, but just perfect for me since I'm 5' tall. Taller people would probably want to avoid this unless you are wearing your MP3 player on your arm. I keep mine in my pocket and it works fine. I am disappointed with the winding mechanism, but otherwise these earphones are ok.
Okay for Music Player Use - NOT for Exercise Machine Use August 12, 2008 The earphone cord is short and thus when you plug into the port on Exercise machines (Elliptical trainers,etc.), to listen and watch tv, you may have a problem if you are over 5' 8". You will have to stoop or adjust your position on the machine. The sound is good for music player use
