Flents Quiet Time Ear Plugs —

When I moved into an apartment last year after having owned a home for quite some time, I knew I would have to reacquaint myself with noise from nearby neighbors. While the noise is rarely bad, there are some times I just want it to be Q-U-I-E-T! I have found that Flents Quiet Time Ear Plugs work quite well at greatly reducing the annoying noise I hear.

Flents Quiet Time Ear Plugs are rather large cone-shaped ear plugs made of foam. They can easily be squeezed down to insert them into the ear canal. It takes a little practice to get them in your ears just right though. They look kind of weird because the ends stick out of your ears. And to top it off - they are purple!

These earplugs do a very good job of greatly reducing stray noises and have helped me sleep on nights when the neighbors are being a bit noisy, a car alarm keeps going off, or someone is running their clothes washer way too late. While they do not make it silent, these plugs do block the majority of noise that is bothersome. Coupled with a running fan, almost all noises can be covered up.

Flents Quiet Time Ear Plugs have a noise reducing rating of 31 and are sold in a box of 10. They come with a little box that will fit just 2 plugs so you can take just a pair with you somewhere. I don't recall the exact price I paid but they are about $5. In my experience these ear plugs do work at reducing noise and helping me sleep, even if the neighbors are wide awake.

I'm glad the review was useful for you. Thanks for stopping by.

Thank you for your review of this product. As someone who has excellent hearing(and wishes to keep it) but who has to frequently go(unwillingly) into very noisy places, this sounds like a product that is great!

Haven't tried this brand but I rely on plugs when the music soars at the movies and the amplification becomes unreal at concerts. Good review!

I should takes these on trips too. Those motel AC/Heater units are always so noisy!

I love these things. I use the little case to bring a pair with me when I travel.

If you check out my review on the NC Transportation Museum you will see some of the locomotives and model railroads and layouts. I also put some pics in my review of the Little ChooChoo Shop.

Hi Gigi- Yes, I visited a railroad museum yesterday. I hope to post more of the pictures soon. Many were from the 1870s-1900 - very old and very interesting history.

One of my brothers own his own trucking company and he also does a lot of rock crawling with dune buggies so he loves to use ear plugs. He used to use the purple ones but he switched to a brand that is bright orange like the construction cones.

I see you have posted a train pic for profile now. Are you into trains? My Dad and oldest brother have been doing model railroading their entire lives. We even visited a train museum back in February and I reviewed it!

Nice review...I tried these and agree, they are pretty decent, although I felt a little like Purple Shrek when they were in, sticking out the side of my head!
