Customer Review: Perfect for Homeschooler
Summary: 5 Stars
My children are home-schooled and use earphones with microphones. The school sent some, but the quality is relatively cheap. These fit my 5-year old son perfectly, so I tried them on my other 2 children who are older and they work great! (I have since ordered 2 more) They are able to block out the voices of the other children as they use them so they can participate in their lesson with their cyber classroom undisturbed. The price point is great. The connection of the microphone is nice because it is NOT fragile like many others and it rotates up in line with the head band, thus keeping it out of the way, (and out of their mouths)! Thanks.. I'll rate longevity when we get through the school year!~Customer Review: Very good for the money
Summary: 5 Stars
I use it for Skype. It sounds clear. People tell me the mic sounds good. It does exactly what you would expect it to do.
Drawbacks? Well, it's a $14 headset, so it's not built like a tank or anything. The earpieces are a tad small, but I've used it for as much as 3 hours straight with no comfort problems.
If you're looking for a cheap, no frills headset, I doubt you could find a better one in this price range.
It's not a 5 star headset based on quality and features. However, I decided to give it 5 stars rather than 4 because of the value that it provides.
Customer Review: Solid performance and hard wearing
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased 35 of these for a college campus computer lab 3 years ago and have only had one set fail in that time. We use them with Apple iMacs (first Pixar lamps, now on Intel 17") with Griffin iMic USB interfaces.
The sound is great, none have failed due to abuse. A few of the foam windscreens have fallen off and were victim to the vacuum cleaners, however. I secure them by running a loop of cable through a small washer and then the computer security cable runs through the loop. Great buy unless you want a USB headset. That will be my next purchase if these ever fail!
Customer Review: For the price, most excellent.
Summary: 5 Stars
This headset provides good sound quality, both the headset and the mic, for a great price. I use them to listen to music as well as talking on Skype, and they work for both just fine. Obviously they're not hi fi or anything but for casual listening no problem.
My only complaint (as others have said) is that they do not fit over the ear, but on the ear, with mediocre padding. Under an hour is fine, but they start to hurt after that.
Overall, though, a great buy! I'm pretty sure you cannot get better value for the money.
Customer Review: Great Deal
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this for my wife to use with voice recognition software. She has not complaints and its a big improvement from just using the built in speakers and mike. I've used it on skype alot and it works great. I've even used it as just a headphones by plugging it into the headphone jack from my logitech sub-woofer speaker set and the sound it good. Only get it through one side when used like this though, don't know if it has something to do with only only the headphone jack being plugged in. For the price I can't imagine a better product.
