Ok, so it is a little over a year since I bout this, and here I am doing a review. When I bought this I did so with some caution, there were so many reviews that said negative things about this head set. I took a chance and bought the head set, and the worked pretty good for about a year, then all of a sudden things started going wrong, first the charge wouldn't hold, then then the tuner would fade in and out, and then finally they just stopped. At the beginning they were pretty decent, and they had a pretty strong connection, I could go down two floors in my house, grab a soda and still hear what was going on in the movie I was watching, or tv show I was viewing. But when things started going bad, they went bad fast. They were comfortable, light and fairly easy to use. Too bad they died as fast as they did. Now I have to find another set, and I have a feeling I may not find a set that was as comfortable as there were???
I read the review, still thought to give a try as it was cheap. However after using it I returned it in a week. Amazon was good to take back the product without the shipping charge.

This product gives lots of noise, it will be worse if you move your head even one inch. Sometime those noise are high pitch noise, which really annoy someone, who want to concentrate for work, while avoiding outside noise.

I actually took this product for my work place, where I want to do coding without outside disturbance by putting some slow instrumental song. It didn't work out, I was sitting only 3-4 feet away from the transmitter, I even tried retuning many many times.

They have given one extra battery for headphone, that sits in the base station, behind the antenna.
I've owned a pair of older Sennheiser headphones for many years but wore them out over time. I was satisfied with them but these new ones are so much better in all ways. Better sound including simulated surround, better fit, better wireless and way better battery life plus an extra battery always charged and ready to go! Way cool wifi headphones! The wife never knows I'm listening to TV late at night because there is little or no sound leakage. Love Amazon and their delivery. One click shopping, it's great!
They are not has clear as I thought they would be. But they do the job.
Plastic pivot axes were broken after about 1 year of occasional usage. But sound is still there, range is satisfactory (not 300 feet as advertised, but sufficient for a regular house, 50 feet). Rechargable battery still works after 4-5 years no replacement, but capacity has dropped and need recharging every 2h.

Because it still works I gave 2 stars. Otherwise construction is very poor. It will certainly break on you even if you do not abuse them at all. First ear peace was broken after 6 month. I fixed it with duct tape, but it did not last. So I put a metal bracket (from used computer slots) and taped both peaces. Looks ugly and bulky, but it works for last 3 years. After about one year second ear peace was broken I fixed it (you guess) same way.

I doubt this product has ever passed ANY quality control. Buy only if you have spare metal brackets and know how to tape it.
