So other reviewers have already responded to negative reviews for the Decibullz Earplugs, but I thought one more response to a majority of the complaints in the negative reviews. I nearly passed on these earplugs if it hadn't been for the positive, independent buyer reviews, which explained most of the complaints in negative reviews of these earplugs.First, if you want a "plug-n-play" earplug (pun intended), then these aren't the earplugs for you. These earplugs are NOT designed for use right out of the box, but that's what makes them so superior to generic foam earplugs. Everyone has a unique ear shapes and ear canals, and these earplugs allow buyers to shape each plug for a personalized fit and thus a seal and stability that is TRULY tailored to the ear it's in!Second, most everyone has purchased a product and immediately discarded the user manual. Even if you take that approach when your Decibullz arrive you're in luck, because their website has some well made, and easy to understand, walkthrough videos of how to properly shape your Decibullz. At the most it takes 20 minutes to watch the videos or read the included manual/instructions and take the necessary steps to get the Decibullz uniquely formed to fit your ears.Third, if a first you don't succeed in getting the right shape and feel, you don't have to toss them (unlike applying your phone's screen protector). This is my second pair and I repeated the simple heating process, which allows malleability of the plastic, to get the fit I wanted (but I'm a perfectionist).Fourth, the foam earplugs, which you can see in one of the pictures associated with this review, are the way to go in order to achieve the best noise isolation. If you're familiar with any brand of foam earplug then you know the correct way to place them in your ear is to compress the foam prior to placing them in your ear canals and allow the foam to expand inside your ear canal for a tight and proper fit. This is a unique, but very important, attribute of any foam earplugs or earbud tips, compared to their silicone counterparts.Lastly, if you take the time to get mould formed to your liking, and use the foam ear tips as mentioned above, then you will undoubtedly have a positive experience with this product!
