Customer Review: Amazing quality for a fair price
Summary: 5 Stars
I've never really been a sound snob, so simple ear bud headphones have been my routine, but I got sick of not being able to hear stuff with ear buds if I was mowing the lawn or using a snowblower.
I bought these a couple of months ago and love them. I have a REALLY loud snowblower and I was amazed at how well I could hear while snow blowing the other day. I listen to podcasts on my iPod, and spoken word was always impossible to hear while doing anything noisy. But these headphones make it so that even the loudest noises become a very low hum while the music or spoken word comes through really great without seeming too loud.
Like I say, this is my first pair of noise-cancelling headphones I've ever owned so I can't compare them other brands, but I'm very impressed at this pair and how the outside noises are greatly reduced or eliminated.
Customer Review: Great product; exactly what I was looking for at amazing price
Summary: 5 Stars
These headphones are great! I'm a college student, so I was looking for an affordable pair of noise canceling headphones, and I got exactly that. I only paid $30, but these headphones fulfill the same functions as a pair of $300 headphones. They only require 1 AAA battery which is actually included in the package. Even without the noise canceling option turned out, the headphones do a very good job blocking out outside noise. The sound quality is also fantastic; with high-quality bass, etc. They are adaptable to the normal outlet as well as the 2-prong outlets you find on airplanes. Also, you are able to fold them up; and they come with a carrying case. The ear part is very comfortable, not putting too much pressure on your ears, and adapting to heads of different shapes and sizes.
Pretty much, I am extremely pleased. Thank you, Kensington!
Customer Review: These Are Great!
Summary: 5 Stars
I do transcription from home and these work great to reduce interference from background noise and amplify the sound. I only need to use the noise canceling feature if something is particularly loud like my husband watching TV in the same room on high volume. Noise canceling does add a bit of a buzzing sound but it is surprisingly effective at drowning out the background noise and well worth my being able to hear clearly and work in any environment! As previously reviewed they do not cup over and 'enclose' the entire ear but after wearing them a short amount of time you don't even notice and they are comfortable and very adjustable. I sometimes wear them for 3+ hours at a time without any problems. I might have to buy a second pair in case anything ever happens to these! I have been using them for a month so far.Customer Review: Good headphones for the price
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased these headphones with a whole bunch of rebates for only 10 dollars! For that low, low price, they are definitely worth the money. For the most part they cancel out outside and high frequency noises, but of course the foldable headphones feel like they are cheaply made. But hey, where else can you find noise cancelling headphones for under 30 bucks? People complain that these headphones don't cancel out a lot of noises, but as cheap, entry level noise cancelling headphones, they do as much as I expect. Definitely get them if they are on sale for under 30 dollars!Customer Review: Great pair of headphones

I have two pair of the Bose Headphones (each ear style) and these are really close as far as performance goes. I read all the other reviews and believe me, some people would complain if you hung them with a new
rope. I don't fly but I do attend NASCAR races and the noise cancelling at a road race is as good as earplugs. I love them for their fold up
feature. Their music rendering is excellent. Hey for the price they are probably the best value on the market. My wife has a set of Sony's and she is always after my Kensingtons when I lay them down..
