Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I'm autistic with noise sensitivities and have tried other earplugs but they always muffled conversations, and have tried earmuffs but I really don't like standing out as "that developmentally disabled guy" when I'm in public. This was a really serious issue for me, because my sound sensitivities make it very difficult to walk alongside busy roads or sit in loud rooms like restaurants without having a shutdown or meltdown. I was debating saving up for electronic earplugs, but I came across this and decided to give them a chance. I am SO glad I did! Not only is it discreet and comfortable, but it works great. I can actually sit in my living room, watch TV with my family, and talk to my dad without having to grin and bear the volume. My dad's going deaf, and he tends to yell-speak, which is horrible when combined with my sensory issues. Either I have to reminded him to quiet every few minutes or I have to pretend that I don't want to take several steps back and cover my ears (because that would be rude, obviously). No one wins in the situation, but with these earplugs it's not an issue anymore. I can talk to my dad and honestly fully enjoy the conversation for the first time since his hearing started to go. It really is amazing. (Only problem is how difficult they are to find if you drop them on white carpets, but that's not enough to dock a star)
