Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Much better than I thought
I read all the reviews on this item and was a little skeptical----but bought it anyways. The reception is excellent---much better than my other ear muff radio. Additionally, I saw complaints that the earmuffs were tight and uncomfortable. I found it you just bend it out a little---its fine. This was a great buy!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Does the Job!
Bought these for work--we use hammer drills, vacuums, and other loud tools. They work great for this application. Like all products that have vinyl to skin contact, you will have to periodically stop and wipe the sweat off of the ear cover. Right after I purchased these, a friend invited me to a NASCAR race--they worked great for this application as well. They kept the noise bearable and I could listen to the race while watching. Service was prompt and they arrived as promised.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Worth it.....
I bought the Peltor Worktunes in July of 2006 and have used it year-round since then. When I bought it, it was 59.99, now that the price is 35.00 it is a no brainer.

I use it to reduce noise and listen to the radio while snowblowing, lawn mowing, cutting down tree's, using sanders...... I love it. It is comfortable and saves your hearing. I must have dropped it 50 times and it is ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Headphones
Great headphones Excellent quality and really reduces noise when using with my leafblower and weeder. Also use for walking while listening to Radio. The only negative is
the weak station signals especially on AM Band. Would purchase another pair in a heartbeat.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good product
This product works fine as a radio. I haven't tried plugging in an MP3 player yet. Some people complained about reception. I don't have any problems. In live in a rural area but on top of a mountain. I get many stations with this unit. I use it on my tractor to mow the lawn. I can still hear the tractor, but it is muffled enough where I do not need to raise the volume very high on my Peltor Racetunes. I haven't used the AM function since I don't really have much use for AM. The FM signal ... Read More
