DeWalt DPG15 Industrial Safety Electronic Hearing Muff

I work for a company that picks up trash in York county pa. I do residential and commercial pickup. We pick up thousands of residential customers a week. In my travels I kept seeing people wearing these things working in their yards..washing their cars,working in their gardens,taking care of their lawns....even a few joggers and people walking their dogs. So..I started looking at radio head phone/hearing protection to use when I'm doing lawn work at my home. I cut an acre and a half every week. I've been. useing a pair of plain Jane ear muffs forever..I figured it was time for a change/upgrade... I bought my last pair of plain Jane's from a big box store...they were cheep,and not very comfortable to wear for two or so hours at a time...but tolerable,and they did keep the noise down. Shopping around... I saw prices ranged from$20 to well over$200... I bought these after reading reviews....MANY.... reviews,and seeing so many of them on the street. I found these to be very reasonably priced. They came quickly...were packaged very well..in New condition..and in original factory packaging. Unpacking was easy,and straight forward...just open the package. The little piece of folded paper in the package are the directions...READ THE DIRECTIONS!... read over the dialect your familiar with,there are a few choices...I'm sure there is one that can get most people through the set up of these headphones...read it a few times BECAUSE.... I did notice in some of the reviews...quite a few folks were complaining about getting the preset function set up..READ the directions... I took the screw loose on the battery compartment cover and installed two AA batteries...pretty straight forward. I found two stations that I listen to during the day at work...one is in Harrisburg..the other in York. Keep in mind that I'm setting the presets inside of my house...not outside...I'm sure reception will be even better outside.. Setting the presets is very easy..READ THE DIRECTIONS! The York station is about 12 air miles from the couch in my house...reception is very clear with no background/white noise..the Harrisburg station is roughly 50 air miles from the couch in my house...there is also a station on the same frequency in Baltimore city...also about 50 air miles south of the couch in my house...there's no bleed over from the Baltimore station...but there is a very small amount of background/white noise..very subtle...very tolerable...especially from a station 50 miles away. As far as the FM reception..over all...Very satisfied with the FM reception.As far as the AM I am receiving zero stations on the AM side. Again....realize I am sitting on my couch...inside my house..in a very difficult area not conducive to receive AM radio frequencies.I have no issues with this...I was not expecting to be able to receive AM considering the area my couch is located. As for the volume... I do remember reading some of the reviews that said there WERE some complaints about not enough volume... I don't need blood leaking from my ears type of volume levels... The volume...on this particular set of headphones.... is more than enough for my ears...especially considering the amount of there noise cancelling ability. Comfort is very good..the head band fits well, and is comfortable..the ear pads are soft and conform very well around my particular glasses and ears...very comfortable. They also apparently have excellent wife cancelling capabilities...I could tell by the very angry look on my beautiful wife's face just a few minutes ago... As of right now...with what I have experienced handling and setting up these headphones from my couch...I'm VERY happy with my purchase... I'm sure they will serve well for many years if I do my part taking care of them.

Use them every day absolutely love the way they feel on my ears, an how sound proof they are!!

Got this for my dad and father in law. They love it. They mostly use the radio and it works great. R reduces outside noise well. Volumes great. They use them while mowing and they enjoy it.

Good quality but lots of issues. 1) The big muffs keep slipping down the adjusters because the wire adjusters are so slick. . 2) the wires that go into each muff start shorting out after half a dozen uses. They are not made for everyday use or constant use like DeWalt you would expect. The one side finally quit working all together after only a month! . Why? because the wire adjusters dont stay where you adjust them...they keep slipping down! 3) they are heavy duty so when they slip down on your ear they start to hang on your ear which really wears on your ears after a few hours. 4) After only a month I cant return them! Did you get that...they only last as long as the warranty lasts and then they start to short out. Why the EFFF would DeWalt put their name on something like this. And ...one last thing...I am NOT hard on my headsets. I mow the lawn..half an hour...work in garage or wash the car or run the dogs...Im not not a heavy user.

so i work at the airport and everyone of my coworkers loves these things and so do i because i can listen to my tunes ad do my job but one day i was using them and was on the radio function but then i shut them off and they just stopped working like the clock died the radio stopped and i replaced the batteries and still nothing but i can still use the AUX feature with my phone or ipod and they work great but i also have glasses and can only wear them for about 2 hours before i take a break but they are built very nicely and i enjoyed them so much i went out and bought the new dewalt Bluetooth ones and they are supposed to come in today but overall they have been through hell the past 7 months and still work almost flawlessly and they cut out almost all of the jet noise and makes my large lawn mower a kitten purr but they are a little quiet but that's normal they are supposed to protect your hearing and not destroy it further than it already is, personally i would buy them again but i want the bluetooth feature

These work! Don't buy the cheap version of these you will regret it like I did!

I absolutely love these headphones/ earmuffs!!Theyre comfortable even after several hours of use.The sound quality isnt anything special it won't blow your mind. But it's good. Not in a bad way though. They're just good solid sound, but theyre as good as they need to be.You won't hear much of anything when you have the radio on, well your hear the radio.The headphone jack wire that you connect to your phone is a good length. I'm 6'2 and it reaches to the bottom of my of pocket. I can leave my phone in my pocket with the wire attached to my headphones and I can still move my head without jerking the wire.But me personally would prefer an extra 6 inches. Another thing the audio won't cut out if you have your phone plugged in. It's not like the cheap dollar store ear buds where you got to twist them and bend the wire to get sound to both ear buds.If i had to say something bad about the headphones in general is you going to have to take them off for a minute every now and than to let your ears breath and to wipe off the sweat. Also this may just be me but the earmuffs are just a tad bit small. My ears fit fine gut there's no wiggle room. Idk I'm just nit picking now.One last thing. When you wear the people have a tendency to try talking to you right when you just put them on.Idk y, but just pay attention to the people around you when you put them on. They're probably try talking to you.Even though they hadn't said anything for the last two minutes you've had threm off but people are idiots!!
