3M WorkTunes Connect Ear Protection with Bluetooth, Rechargeable Battery, Audio and Voice Assist, Ear Muffs

3M WorkTunes Connect Hearing Protector with Bluetooth Technology work perfectly in blocking noise while hearing your incoming calls and listening to music. The noise reduction rating is 24 decibels. I have to admit that I do not work in a career where hearing protection is a necessity. I do however enjoy noise blocking headphones since I work from home and need to tune out my family while concentrating. As an added use, I do enjoy having these on while vacuuming the house so I can listen to music clearly. I can see many other home uses for these also, such as while mowing the lawn or working with home power tools. I already own noise blocking headphones that I was using around the house when needed. However, I really enjoy the added function of listening to music and not missing important phone calls. I was pleasantly surprised on the sound quality too. I'm not someone that would consider themselves tech savvy so I was concerned for a minute that I wouldn't be able to get the headphones up and running. I was amazed at how easy it was to connect the bluetooth from my smartphone. They have a simple one button function to turn them on and the cord to charge them is also simple to use. I was amazed how much sound these block. Especially since they are not too heavy and feel quite comfortable on. They are easily adjustable and my younger son has even worn them while doing his homework and they fit him well too. The cushion pads on the ears do not squeeze, pinch or feel rough to the skin. They are cushy, soft and seem durable. Overall, I'm excited to have these headphones as part of my routine when working from home with family around. Honestly, they even work great for a little “me time” moment when you really just need to tune things out.
