Does what it says on the tin
Don’t let the mixed reviews put you off. If you’ve tried ear plugs, you’ll know how bad they can hurt. You can wear these all night without feeling them in you ears or worrying that they will fall out. I have tinnitus and am also a light sleeper. Traveling for work and sleeping in city hotels doesn’t help either. Noise around bedtime can get me worked up and unable to fall asleep. The Sleepbuds give me confidence that I will get my sleep and keep me calm. I put them in 30min before bed and start with relaxation sounds before switching to white noise. They are not a miracle cure but they mask the noises that would prevent me from sleeping and once I’m asleep, very little bothers me. In fact, my alarm that I usually switch off while it is still soft, has to go really loud before I wake up with the Sleepbuds. Fortunately there is a built-in alarm, even if it is rather jolting.
