Great headphones have lasted me since 2017 and still work well
I just realized I've had these since Oct 2017!!!They still work great. It isn't as bulky as shown in photo and it's not too warm as it's pretty thin fleece.I've been using them for sleep and for sleeping on plane. They do not block noise, especially on plane but block a bit of my husband's snoring when I have music or book playing and it's been really great.They're pretty sturdy as I've been using them for all these year at home and on international flights.I'm now getting another pair just so I have something in case these die.I bought a different brand pair but they are too tight and I'm going back to what has been working well for all these years.

Exceeded my expectations - UPDATE: Bought 2nd pair
I almost didn't buy these after reading some of the reviews, but decided to give them a try because they are only a few bucks. I'm glad I did.After almost a year of using them a few times a week they are still going strong.The headband portion is made of a comfortable fabric. It's synthetic (I'm assuming) and feels like soft velvet. Whatever it is, it's probably the best material for the job because it doesn't rub or scratch.The speakers are flexible rubber speakers. They are inside the headband and are so thin you hardly notice they are there even when I sleep on the side of my head.I wear them so I can watch TV or my tablet while my wife sleeps. I wear glasses, and can still put the headband on so it goes over my forehead and still cover my ears. I've worn them on planes and have used the headband as a sleep mask while listening to music or an audio book. Some reviewers have complained about fabric pressing down on their eyebrows. I've sometimes had to smooth my eyebrows down once they are on and it's fine, so maybe if you have bushy eyebrows it may annoy you slightly. If that's the case you can always trim your eyebrows (I do).When I first put them on I thought one of the speakers wasn't working, then I realized it was just flipped (facing away from my ear). I simply put my fingers inside the headband speaker pocket and flipped it.Some of the reviews I've read said the speakers didn't line up their ears. I had the same problem then I figured out that the speakers could be slid back and forth inside the headband. While I do have to adjust the speaker place almost every time I wear them, I find it to not to be a problem since I get exact placement every time.I like the fact that there is a logo/label sewn on the front. It means that even in the dark I can feel it and figure out which part of the band is the front and should face out.The cord length is fine. I've never had a problem. But I tend to use it with a tablet or MP3 player so my device is always close. I do have a audio cable extension cord that I use with my TV.It comes with a travel bag, which I have never used and can't tell you where it is.I've read that the speakers are removable and you can wash the band. I've never done this, but it's been a year... it's time.There are some issues, but it's more of a "fact of life" problems than design problems. First when you sleep on the side the speaker you are laying against will be louder. I can't fault the product or design for this, it's just science. If you cram one speaker against your ear and not the other... it will seem louder. Perhaps they could design a $400 set that detects the pressure on one speaker and uses a microprocessor to compensate. It's not a problem for me - I expected this even before I started looking for a set of sleep headphones... it's just common sense.The other issue is volume. When I'm watching a movie and people whisper it can be hard to hear. I can generally press the speaker against my ear and hear it. I still gave this product five-stars despite this because of the price. It's unfair to compare this $15 set of headphones to my $300 Bose noise cancelling headphones. I seem to have more a problem with my tablet than with my MP3 player so it could be that the tablet doesn't deliver a strong enough audio signal.All-in-all... Five Stars because of the low price and because it exceeded my expectations.UPDATE: My wife drove the vacuum cleaner across the cord and it chewed it up. I bought a 2nd pair of these without hesitation.

Not too uncomfortable if you don't wear glasses & the sound is okay, however...
This is not a bad product, particularly for under $20. My only problem is that the reason I got this is to watch long movies, because earbuds become slightly painful to me after a while, and this doesn't play well with my glasses. While the headband itself isn't uncomfortable, at least it wasn't after I stretched it out a bit, when it is worn over my glasses it pushes them just enough into my face and behind my ears to become painful fairly quickly.I have found that putting my glasses on top of the headband solves this problem, but it is not a look I would like to debut in public...say, on a plane, for instance. Still, at the price I paid, I feel they are worth keeping for three reasons.One, I like watching the movies on my computer with headphones even in the privacy of my own home, because I hear more clearly and it doesn't bother anyone else. So it doesn't matter if I look like the supreme dork with my glasses over the headband.Two, they take up so little space, it is no problem to bring them along even if I will not be using them quite as much as I expected.Three, they are good for just listening. So if I would like to sleep on a plane - or anywhere really, where listening to music will alleviate any nearby noise, these are great and it won't matter if I fall asleep wearing them. Since I don't sleep with my glasses on, they will remain fairly comfortable.So these get the job done, do what they're supposed to do, however...While the sound is perfectly fine for hearing what's going on in a movie and drowning out nearby noise, these are inexpensive speakers, so you can't expect a really high audio quality. Also, to get them really close to your ears, the headband would have to be way too tight, so you aren't really immersed in the sound unless you are using them to sleep at night and lay on your side. Then one of the speakers will be pressed right up against your ear. I'm not sure if that can be comfortable for a full night's sleep, or even if the headband can remain in place that long. But my daughter likes to fall asleep listening to audio books, so I will let her try these and see what happens, then report back about it.The other thing that kept it from being 4 stars is the label that is smack in the middle of your forehead. I know it's tempting to advertise an inexpensive product to random passersby, but most of us prefer to wear more discreetly labeled products. Since I plan to use these in the presence of others, I am going to go to the trouble of removing the stitching on the label and take it off completely. And I resent the company for making me go through the trouble of doing that. I know that there are other products on the market like this one and, if I ever need to replace it, I will check first to see if there is a brand which does not sport a big label front and center. A small embroidered logo would have served the same purpose.In the meantime, I will say that these are satisfactory at the price, and could be useful for those who find earbuds uncomfortable after a while - probably more so for those who don't wear glasses.

Very comfortable and work great!
Great product for the price! I enjoy the feeling and sound of these headphones and use them nightly. They are plug in so they do not require charging which is nice though it does take used to using with a cord connected to the phone all night. My only reason for giving a 4 star is the long time use of these headphones. After about a year of use the wiring starts to wear down. But they are cheap enough to buy again.
