These noise-cancellation headphones are the cheapest that I could find for my transatlantic flight to Ireland. I had another pair previously for my flight to Hawaii from the east coast. The over the ear design reduces cabin noise and doesn't start to bother you for about 6 hrs of constant wear. Take a break for food and you're ready to go again. They had reasonable sound and adequate noise-cancellation to drown out crying babies and cabin noise. Add earplugs if you need total quiet to sleep. The price was right for my occasional needs and for kids.

These headphones are very good, especially for the price and Amazon continues to provide excellent product value. The headphones are comfortable on the head & ears, and collapsable and has both a single prong jack for PC, etc and a double prong for airplane use. The switch for noise reduction works bvery well. Just make sure you have the 2 AAA batteries to work the noise reduction, and also remember to shut the NR switch off when not in use. To Maxell: I recommend that some small type of electronic automatic noise reduction shut-down would be an enhancement to the product

I purchased these for medical transcription and they work great. My only complaint is the annoying on/off switch is right in the middle of the cord, which is obnoxious. But I would buy again for sure!

I bought these and had to return them two times. They just stopped working each time. The wires seem cheap and faulty. One side always stops working and then the next side follows shortly after. I hope this 3rd set holds out.

Overall I have been very happy with these headphones. They are comfortable and the sound is fine for my purposes. I am not a critical audiophile, and to me these give a perfectly fine sound for my listening purposes. I like the long cord as well.
The only complaint I have is that they make my head and ears hot when I wear them for long periods of time. The leather around the ears gets very warm after listening for a while causing me to sweat a bit.
The noise reduction button works well, but does not completely shut off the outside world. I guess I expected it would, but this has not been a disappointment. Overall, this is a very good headphone for the price.
