Mack's Pillow Soft Silicone Putty Earplugs, 2 Pair, Beige

I would avoid these at all costs !!! I used to use them frequently and they gave me permanent ear damage !!! And guess what the ceo of the company said??? Just deal with it !!! Avoid these people !! Figure out the root of your sleeping problem ! Don’t just rely on artificial products !!Edit: stop calling the police petey baby be a man and face your problems like everyone else :/

Don’t use these for sleep

Used these for sleeping. Worked great for the most part (I work night shift so sleep during the day) until I woke up with a piece lodged all the way into my ear that I couldn’t get out on my own. Had to go to emergent care to have them continually flush out %26 was lucky they were able to dislodge it after many attempts. Followed directions on using these, used them for 6 months prior to this happening. It was very scary waking up totally deaf in one ear. Makes me wonder how many small particles from these are in my ear that I am unaware of.

GREAT FOR EARS WITH TUBES!

Our 5yo little girl has tubes and we have tried everything recommended but nothing actually WORKED! Water would still get into her ears and cause fungal infections constantly! Swimming %26 bathing in the tub were always an issue until we found these handy little gems! I still have to rinse her ears with 1 part ACV/4 parts water just as a precaution but we’ve used these going on 2 Summers now and no issues! YOU MUST FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS ENTIRELY to avoid any damage to the tubes! As long as you’re careful and don’t push them into the canal you won’t have any problems! We have to be extra cautious with our little one because she’s been through enough already with her ears! We don’t keep them in for more than an hour at a time because kids aren’t going to be as mindful ... MoreOur 5yo little girl has tubes and we have tried everything recommended but nothing actually WORKED!

We have to be extra cautious with our little one because she’s been through enough already with her ears! We don’t keep them in for more than an hour at a time because kids aren’t going to be as mindful as adults and we keep a good watch on her just to make sure she doesn’t push in on them or try to remove them on her own! We have tried the fitted earplugs from her doctors and we have tried the foam kind! Big nope on the foam ones! I would even cut them to fit her little ears but they would still bother her and the fitted plugs would just fall right out with any movement! I bought this little pack of Mack’s silicone earplugs about a year and a half ago and we are just now about ready to buy more! They really last and they’re a lifesaver! Using them at first may take a little practice and getting used to but they are the best that we’ve found on the market yet! Make sure to roll them around in your hands to make them soft and then gently place them over your ear canal and gently give them a tiny push to make them seal around the opening. When you go to remove them do not try to pull them out like regular plugs because it could separate and become lodged! Just pull down on the earlobe to unseal the plug and kinda lightly push up %26 inward on the back of the ear to make them come out in one piece! VOILA

Great for sleeping with a snorer!

My husband snores -really really loudly. I can't sleep with his snoring. So first I tried the foam plugs but they made my ears hurt when I laid on my sides. Then I was wearing my husbands ear protector muffs that he'd wear at the gun range. But, I could only sleep on my back with them on. So, I ordered a body pillow and was bummed thinking that I might not be able to even use it if I have to sleep on my back or hear the snoring. So, I did another search and found these. I thought for the price they were worth a shot. Well, these are awesome! They do not hurt my ears sleeping on my side. I don't hear any snoring. I am so happy with these! This is the way to go for anyone that has a snoring partner. They are so easy to use. I wash mine in hot water and soap every ... MoreMy husband snores -really really loudly.

I wash mine in hot water and soap every morning and am able to reuse them longer than what they say to. The first day or two some hair does stick to them. It's no big deal. I didn't have any issues getting them out. Just tug down on your earlobe and the seal will open. These have been a life saver -totally recommend!

Great product! Worth trying.

I personally loved this product. It was by far the best earplug I have used. They are soft and easy to use. They almost completely block out airplane noise, tv sounds, people talking and other ambient sounds. I would definitely recommend this product.

Happy with purchase.

I am a swimmer and got these to replace other older ear plugs. They do the job for a while, but they do need replaced after they get dirty. They seemed to last better than my older swimmer plugs. Now I need to replace all. Got them January 1, 2023 this is June 15th. Definitely got my money's worth. Heading to Walmart to get more before I swim today.

Life saving!!

These saved my husband’s life. He’s quite lucky I found them: I used use the traditional foam earplugs, that was until I met my husband. You can literally hear him snoring from outside. Until I could convince him to go see a doctor, I had to figure out how to sleep with all the noise he made. These are difficult at first to get used to. But once you get the hang of these, you’ll sleep more soundly than ever. First you need to warm them up in your hands. Make them into a ball and press them into your outer ear openings. Before taking your fingers away, make sure to smoosh them in a tiny bit, and trim your head in all different directions. Then carefully take your fingers away. They are soft, comfortable and block out even the loudest of noises. They make a great gift ... MoreThese saved my husband’s life.

They’re clear in color and easy to hide! I always have an extra pack or two on hand, so I’m never without them. They’re the only reason you haven’t seen me on America’s Most Wanted. Try them!! Give them a few tries to get used to them. I promise, you’ll wonder how you ever slept without them before!!

Not For Sleeping. Sticky, Poor Seal, Still Noisy

Maybe these would be better for swimming but they are not good for sleeping.The earplugs are super sticky and don’t always keep their seal in the ear. When I sleep, my hair gets stuck in the earplugs and I have to gently pull it out in the morning. Then any fibers/dust that were on your pillow (even if you have a freshly washed pillow case) will be stuck to the earplugs in the morning so they won’t look nice anymore.I find I constantly have to fix the seal the earplugs have on my ear (Yes, I followed the instructions). Even when properly sealed, they block sound less than any other earplugs I’ve ever used.The one positive thing I can say is that they don’t hurt the ears (as many other earplugs can be very uncomfortable after long periods of time).

Perfect peace

These earplugs are probably the best I've ever used! I previously used a slightly firmer silicone product and a silicone earplug with a loop attached (you know the ones!). Neither are as comfortable for sleeping in as Mack's. These are super soft, easy to mould and unbelievably comfortable. They were also delivered on time ( Royal Mail strike notwithstanding). I will definitely buy these again :)

Truly amazing product!

Purchased this item to block out my boyfriend’s snoring. I cannot wear earbuds due to tiny ears and I saw these do not go into the ear. I was super skeptical and he laughed at them saying there’s no way they’d work. I was finally able to fall asleep next to the man that I love! After putting the ear plugs over my ear I noticed they did fantastically at blocking sound. But, I thought for sure they’d fall out and end up being a fail. They stayed in place all night long. My hair was sticking to them but wasn’t glued to them. Super easy to put in, super easy to remove. I’d love to wear them every time I sleep, but I’m a third shifter with a kid in school and I need to be able to hear my phone ring and be able to hear my alarm clock go off. These ear plugs are amazing. ... MorePurchased this item to block out my boyfriend’s snoring. I cannot wear earbuds due to tiny ears and I saw these do not go into the ear.
