Tools and Hardware Reviews of Milwaukee 49-17-3300 Heavy Duty Folding Ear Muffs, NRR 28 db

Customer Review: Only Adequate -- And Overpriced
Summary: 1 Stars

First, there's nothing -- zero -- "Milwaukee" about these except the external retail repackaging. These are just Mexican-made "Howard Leight Hearing Protection" product.

These are typical sub-$10 units, though they do a decent job of actually blocking sound and are reasonably comfortable for me. The quality is poor, however. The crude headband length adjustment goes from much too tight to much too loose very quickly and the cheap plastic of the earpads quickly starts to degrade and harden after exposure to body oils. The pads are glued to the cups and this glue also begins to lose its grip very soon in prolonged use.

I have hyperacusis and wear hearing protectors for many hours at a time every day. These simply do not hold up. If you only use hearing protectors occasionally and for very brief periods, these may be entirely adequate for your purposes, but they are in no way professional grade units for daily extended use in noisy environments.
