Very uncomoftable to sleep with this Quiteon 3, whoever designed it should be punished by wearing these plugs every night for a year!!! Have they not heard about silicone? This is made of rough plastic! The foam tips are very poor quality. As for noise cancelling.... You could as well use the cheapest silicone plugs. 200 euro wasted, not to mention I had to wait for this crap nearly 2 months.
The QuietOn Website and TH-cam videos premiere attractive, credible people all enduring a range of noisy scenarios. And so these ACTORS pop in their QuietOn 3 earbuds, and a restful state of bliss washes over each one of them. Experiencing this type of bliss with my Sony XM4 (which really, really work), this side sleeper couldn't get his QuietOn buds fast enough. But after spending most of my evening revisiting the instructions and repeated fittings , it's back to Finland they go! THEY SIMPLY DO NOT WORK!
Thank you so much for this review. I am a Respiratory Therapist and I work the night shift at a large city hospital. That being said, I sleep during the day! Although I have room darkening shades, an eye mask and foam earbuds, I can still be woken up by the daily hustle and bustle of my neighborhood. Kids playing, lawnmowers, and dogs barking. White noise DOES NOT work for me. It always prevents me from falling asleep. I can't even sleep with a fan on. I need absolute QUIET. I will wake up even if my wife is in the kitchen and she opens/closes the refrigerator door. I think I'm in that very small category where these juuuuuust might work for me. I think I'm going to try them. THANK YOU so much for such an awesome review. Yes these are pretty expensive, but getting quality sleep for me is dire when working with my patients. I'll be sure to let you know how they work out! -Andy from Boston
Thanks Katie! These may be worth a try for me. I fit in that niche I think. I'm currently "sleep divorced" which is less than ideal but necessary for my wellness. Even though my Hubs wears his cpap, which mitigates the snoring, he will vent out his mouth (he's non compliant with a chin strap). While the noise is pretty low key and more of a hiss than a snore now, I can't stay asleep when he does this. Traditional buds, while effective at noise canceling aren't low enough profile for my side sleeping.
mine just arrived today. so far they're disappointing. playing white noise at different frequencies I switch them on and off with magnets and while there is a noticeable dampening of the sound it's not nearly what I was expecting. airpods are indeed better (but that cursed low battery noise is a deal breaker). I also tried with snoring sounds and the benefit is marginal. I'll see how they do with real world this week but at present I can't recommend them.
I love my Bose Sleepbuds II. Same price point but total noise cancelling with lots of options for white noise sounds. The only other ear plugs I can wear are the silicone ear plugs but the Sleepbuds are now my fav and go to for a good night’s sleep.
@@katie_moore Yes. I have small ears as well and the smallest attachment (they also have several sizes) fit my ears perfectly. They seal well and are very comfortable even with my sensitive ears. Highly recommend!
@@katie_moore oh! And yes! I think they are about the same tiny size as the QuietOn. Very small and don’t fall out when I flop from side to side while sleeping.
Oooo I might have to check these out! Right now I use wax earplugs and I can make them very comfortable because you can take off pieces of the wax to make them the perfect size for your ears. The foam earplugs are just way uncomfortable and too big for my ears. I like the idea of some white noise sounds though so I might check these out!
I've got the Sleepbuds 2 and very disappointed. They basically drown out noise by playing ambient sounds. Whenever yoy put the volume too low, you still hear noise. But what if yoy jist want silence? The sleepbuds 2 do nothing for that. They're just earbuds paired with a sound library. I expected a lot more from Bose.
I’ve been using the airpod pros and when I have it in noise cancellation mode, even without having something playing in my earbuds, it greatly reduced the severity of snoring coming from my husband. Ever since he gained 60 pounds, he has started snoring. I have terrible hip & back pain so our bed is the most comfortable spot in the house for me to sleep, so I won’t bunk with the kids or sleep on the couch. And my husband works 60+ hours a week with an extremely physically demanding job, so I always decline his offer when he offers to sleep on the couch. I couldn’t in good conscious do that to him. I can’t use my airpod pros when I sleep anymore because they dig into my ears (I have to sleep on my side to reduce sleep paralysis occurrences), and my ears even began to bleed. It’s probably from friction. I’m wondering if these will be any different from the Bose or airpod pros in regards to noise cancellation and comfort because these quieton buds are expensive. If anyone has recommendations other than traditional ear plugs, I would try appreciate it.
I feel you Ruthie. Hoping you'll find your way to a night without disturbances. A question here, I'm also a side sleeper having a hard time with snoring. Have you tried the QuietOn 3 for this situation? or anything else? thanks!
Seems like the quiet ons design was to prevent the digging into ears, they are really comfortable like wearing ear plugs and only allow high sounds like alarms to hear through them
A wildly mid product provided by an absolute joke of a company. Do to this video I decided to give these a try because it seemed like they could help drown out a new noisy neighbor and snoring partner who were keeping me up all night. Turns out a $10 8-pack of reusable/moldable silicone earplugs from Amazon work 20x better than these. Anyways, it took Quieton nearly 3 weeks to initially ship my order, and only did when I opened a PayPal claim after they refused to cancel my order. I tried the product and was not at all impressed and decided to return them 1.5 weeks after actually getting them. Quieton made the process excruciating, and wanted me to do endless amounts of troubleshooting even though I made it clear they were working, I just didn't like them (this is apart of their advertised 30 Day Return policy). Their next move to prevent you from returning them is by making you pay out of pocket to ship them back to Sweden, even though the product ships from the US. It cost me an additional $40 just to send them back. They sat in International shipping limbo for over a month, and even after they received them they waited 2 additional weeks before responding to my email asking how long it would take for them to process it. I'm only getting my money back because PayPal closed the claim on my favor. These sound like a great and innovative product on paper, but honestly they're not even worth the $40 I spent to return them. Quieton is a dishonest company that doesn't care about their customers. Please avoid this product/company at all costs.
I’ve had Bose noise cancelling headphones for years - they’re great, but bulky and uncomfortable for sleep. These Quieton 3s don’t appear work at all! Am I missing something?
Thank you so much for this review, I think there’s a lot of us out there that have issues with noise at night. I would love it if you could review other devices for this applications it would be helpful. I know you’re reviewing the headband, but some of us don’t like music when we sleep, we like dead silence. Thanks so much for your great work.
I own both the Quieton's as well as the Bose sleepbuds. I am a real consumer - this is not some fake review. Four months after I purchased the Quieton's, the sound cancelling feature stopped working making the product useless. After a long six week waiting period, Quieton replaced the earbuds. Guess what, four months later, the same thing happened the noise cancelling failed. Changing the foam earpieces did not do anything. Quieton refused to do anything saying their liability is limited to the cost of the earbuds. I was entitled to just this one replacement and they were not standing by their product. Tough luck. $300 out the window. Don't deal with this company. They have a problem with their product and they refuse to own up to it. Bose also had a major problem with their sleepbuds, but offered multiple replacements. They recently got out of the business.
Hey Katie, what device do you recommend for maximal noise cancelling? I currently use the silicone buds but looking for something better. Also, what is the issue with EMF?
Sad to see there isn’t a response on this. I’m seeking total noise cancelling thanks to moving and there being night roadworks at my new place (for at least the next six months). Have you had any luck?
@@iamqueenkk oh boy I'm so sorry. My problem is due to old thin apts and crackhead neighbors. It's depressing and draining so I know where you are coming from.im looking also to be temporary deaf but can't seem to find anything that works short of doing something to my eardrums.. 🥺🥺🥺
@@mamacindyrogofsky495 so I bought the quieton 3 in the end. I’ve been wearing them a week and they block the horrible construction noise at my new place. I’ve been sleeping so much better. I can still hear if someone is in the same room speaking to me and can hear my alarm - but I found out this morning that if I leave my phone on silent accidentally and it’s right beside my head, with the sleeppods in I don’t hear the vibrating phone!
@@PlimbaUrsul I still use them every night. I really recommend them if you’re looking for the next level up from from earplugs. They’re a LOT better but along the same lines. Can still hear my alarm or someone talking to me (or a cat crying because she needs me)
I have been using these on and off for a few of months now- only issue I have is that after a few hours my ear canals become sore. Other than that pretty good and though they are expensive they do help me sleep in a noisy environment which justifies the cost if you suffer sleep deprivation due to noise.
My partner literally snores like a CHAINSAW on dual. We re about to get married and I think our "marriage" is already over just purely down to this issue. I've tried foam ear plus, silicone, wax, over the head ear phones.. nothing works and when it does I'm always always at the doctor's with ear infections. Does my partner care? As long as he's getting a good night sleep err....no. I'm absolutely fed up with all and every type of solution I come up with this time I'm taking the plunge and buying these. Either that or the marriage is over before the start.
If he doesn’t care at all about your sleep/health or comfort that’s a big red flag. And do you want to listen to him snore every night for possibly decades?
I live in an EXTREME noise environment, and I do mean extreme. I cannot wear ear plugs, my ear canals are very small and they just fall out. There are trains, noisy, rumbling, roaring, (like an f-5 tornado in the backyard) clanging, horn honking, shaking, vibrating. We live in an older mobile home and it is very poorly insulated. We just bought this place not knowing the trains run thru at night, our agent conveniently forgot to tell us this...SOOOO, we're stuck here, at least for awhile. Do these quiet on things fit in very small ear canals and would they block the sound of the trains??? Thanks...
Hi! Thank you so much for all the info! I am curious how you are measuring how much deep sleep you are getting. I have a wellue O2 ring, is there a way to use the data from that to figure it out? I don't usually wake up a lot at night but I don't get good sleep either. I think of myself as a light sleeper, my phone alarm vibrating is enough to wake me up. I think it's possible that noises are keeping me out of deep sleep but not fully waking me up. Foam ear plugs and white noise from an air filter does not seem to be enough. I can't sleep to music or other "peaceful" sounds. So I am wondering if this could help... Thanks again!
Just get some Bose Quietcomfort II earbuds that work significantly better with ANC and cost less. You can actually use those as regular earbuds, and they typically go on sell making them $100 less than the 3.1s.
Just watched a guy who did a review on these earplugs to block out his upstairs noisey neighbors. This is exactly what I'm dealing with. He said they were useless. That tells me everything I need to know about these earplugs. Not only that, iit costs about $160 to return. This is because they have to go back to Finland, which is where they are manufactured. Even though they were shipped to him from Pennsylvania. So what you get back, for their "money back guarantee" is the difference.
Watch out with the poor quality and even worse customer service of QuietOn. After 3 months of use of Quieton 3 by my wife, we claimed that 3 foams out of the 6 received are completely worn out and damaged and they tell us that they are not covered in the warranty as they are consumables and even for proper operation of the device, we should exchange them once a month (cost nearly 40€, parts + transport costs). What a rip off, unbelievable.
I have to say that these are the worst purchases I have ever made. Thought about whether this product was worth in it terms of price and am sorry to say they are terrible. The amount of noise they cancel out is negligible and the fit is not comfortable, I feel regret every time I look at them. Wish they had turned out to be what I hoped for.
Thank you for reviewing these! I am incredibly sensitive to sound so I have to drown out noise using brown noise at night on earbuds. I’m looking forward to your review on the sleepphones because I’m curious to know what listening to brown noise every night is doing to both my hearing and my mental state. I never wake up feeling totally rested, and I wonder if it’s because of this.
Me too. I found a video with Super Deep Brown noise even on noise cancelling Bose headphone it’s better but I still hear the snoring. Im still looking for other things
I just ordered a pair of these. There is no reasonable way to test the active noise canceling claims of these earplugs. There is no indicator anywhere on them to show they if they are even on. Keep in mind these are also physical earplugs. The instruction booklet gives you scenarios to go prove to yourself they are working: "Go stand with your ear next to your dishwasher". Guys, if you have to tell your customers how they can convince themselves your product is doing something more than plugging their ears, then it is probably not a great product.
Thanks for the honest review. Very informative and agree on many aspects that you pointed out. Considering ANC is not close to airpod pro or BOSE qc, price is set to extremely high.
I am of the type that I either have a TV show, podcast or SOMETHING on while trying to fall asleep. If I wake up in the middle of the night I have a bluetooth headband that I slap on (to not wake my spouse) and it connects to my device and I put on ANOTHER show haha. I can't have silence xD!!! Regardless, I ended up watching this entire video :D Thank you! Keep up the great work!
Dear Ms. Katie, my son is suffering from low, vibratory sound coming through the walls and floors in our apartment, from the neighbors stero/TV. They keep it on most of the day and night and my son is suffering greatly from sleep deprivation. What can you tell me about these ear buds and this low, vibratory irritation........ and whether you or the company can say whether these Omni 3 buds will help him sleep. Respectful, appreciative regards, Dave
@@halinabonbon9936 oh no! Did you try getting a refund? I also bought them but ended up returning them cause i didn’t think they were any better than foam earplugs
my upstairs neighbor wakes me up several times a night when he gets up to use the bathroom and a white noise machine doesn't help. sigh. might need to get this.
Let's say I need to sleep in the middle of the factory floor and every little noise wakes me up... is this the best solution possible or do you recommend a different product?
Does anyone know of earbuds that eliminate sounds like someone walking above you in a apartment, because this is the sound that aggravates me the most.
I got the 3.1 version last week. I watched all the videos, watched all the links, and could not hear any difference having them on or off. I tried all the foam pieces to get a tight fit, and nothing changed. The directions say to roll the foam and have them in your ears in 10 to 15 seconds. Still no difference. I bought these for snoring and was disappointed. Support wanted to do a video, but they were only available from 1am to 4 am. When I was an engineer I worked in noise cancellation and worked for a hearing aid company testing. I have asked for a return and full refund. They have a great idea if it works. I miss my Bose II earbuds.
Just got on Tech support with QuietOn at 1:30am. They are going to send me a shipping label for a return under warranty. Waiting to see what they determine.
I can see these having an application in my lifestyle. At home I have a white noise air purifier, and that suits me, but alas I don't always sleep at home. Thank you Katie for fighting the good fight of helping people sleep better, you sure have helped me. hugs
For the budget-minded consumer, would you mind also trying other cheaper alternatives? Maybe also like foam earplugs? And can you show how to use them properly to block sound? Thanks!
Lol! How she conveniently didn’t compare the size with Bose or Amazon fit . Obviously she gets paid for this, what a terrible commercial and a pathetic trick
Caution! All this is very curious, because these devices are not at all as effective as they describe in these videos. Beware.
Totally agree! But I only found out by buying this crap.....
Ok

Can it cancelling the sound of push chairs in the midnight from neiboourhood?
How they'd respond to boom car bass or neighbor bass is critical. They'd need very fast response.

Even if they are not for sleeping, I can see it a better option if you want to just reduce noise.
Just get some Bose Quietcomfort II earbuds that work significantly better with ANC and cost less. You can actually use those as regular earbuds, and they typically go on sell making them $100 less than the 3.1s.

Watch out with the poor quality and even worse customer service of QuietOn. After 3 months of use of Quieton 3 by my wife, we claimed that 3 foams out of the 6 received are completely worn out and damaged and they tell us that they are not covered in the warranty as they are consumables and even for proper operation of the device, we should exchange them once a month (cost nearly 40€, parts + transport costs). What a rip off, unbelievable.
It’s really difficult getting your attention with those earbuds in!

Thanks for the comment! I am also very sensitive to sound! I've got a lot of research left to do in this space. I'll keep digging!
Me too. I found a video with Super Deep Brown noise even on noise cancelling Bose headphone it’s better but I still hear the snoring. Im still looking for other things
I’m worried if it’s keeping my brain active since it’s still noise. I get awful sleep it’s making me ill. If you have any other tips please help
I just ordered a pair of these. There is no reasonable way to test the active noise canceling claims of these earplugs. There is no indicator anywhere on them to show they if they are even on. Keep in mind these are also physical earplugs. The instruction booklet gives you scenarios to go prove to yourself they are working: "Go stand with your ear next to your dishwasher". Guys, if you have to tell your customers how they can convince themselves your product is doing something more than plugging their ears, then it is probably not a great product.
Thank you! I need to block the sound of geese honking on the pond behind my house. These do not seem appropriate for that purpose.
Thanks for the honest review. Very informative and agree on many aspects that you pointed out. Considering ANC is not close to airpod pro or BOSE qc, price is set to extremely high.
Ok but what about screaming kids and dogs during the day cause I work graveyard shift
Hi you mentioned you would compare these to foam earplugs, but I didn't see it in your reveiw?
I am of the type that I either have a TV show, podcast or SOMETHING on while trying to fall asleep. If I wake up in the middle of the night I have a bluetooth headband that I slap on (to not wake my spouse) and it connects to my device and I put on ANOTHER show haha. I can't have silence xD!!! Regardless, I ended up watching this entire video :D Thank you! Keep up the great work!
Dear Ms. Katie, my son is suffering from low, vibratory sound coming through the walls and floors in our apartment, from the neighbors stero/TV. They keep it on most of the day and night and my son is suffering greatly from sleep deprivation. What can you tell me about these ear buds and this low, vibratory irritation........ and whether you or the company can say whether these Omni 3 buds will help him sleep. Respectful, appreciative regards, Dave
Hello,
you found a solution ? I have the same problème : BIM - BOOM at night
Wax earplugs work, but he won't hear his wake-up alarm either.
Hello
It is possible to add a personal song ? Like on TH-cam or Spotify?
i wake up super early and need to set an alarm. Will I be able to hear my alarm?
Would this be good for blocking cat meowing sounds?
lol probably a bit. wont completely eliminate the high notes.
No. Or any other louder sound 🤣 bought it, tried it, and wasted 200 euro.
@@halinabonbon9936 oh no! Did you try getting a refund? I also bought them but ended up returning them cause i didn’t think they were any better than foam earplugs
Thank you for your honest review much appreciated 😊
Hi
Can you hear your alarm? Thats very important
Thank you! I need to block the sound of geese honking on the pond behind my house. I don’t think these are the best choice.
my upstairs neighbor wakes me up several times a night when he gets up to use the bathroom and a white noise machine doesn't help. sigh. might need to get this.
Any luck ?
I just buy foam earplugs at Walgreens and keep an air cleaner on....
These are total crap! Don’t work at all rip you off for $220 and non refundable
It's a scam with 0 noise cancelling.
Let's say I need to sleep in the middle of the factory floor and every little noise wakes me up... is this the best solution possible or do you recommend a different product?
Your song selection is fire.
Does anyone know of earbuds that eliminate sounds like someone walking above you in a apartment, because this is the sound that aggravates me the most.
@Kazoo any luck ?
@@apilkarki1290 Yes I moved to a room on the top floor. So problem solved👍
Best review on TH-cam
I got the 3.1 version last week. I watched all the videos, watched all the links, and could not hear any difference having them on or off. I tried all the foam pieces to get a tight fit, and nothing changed. The directions say to roll the foam and have them in your ears in 10 to 15 seconds. Still no difference. I bought these for snoring and was disappointed. Support wanted to do a video, but they were only available from 1am to 4 am. When I was an engineer I worked in noise cancellation and worked for a hearing aid company testing. I have asked for a return and full refund. They have a great idea if it works. I miss my Bose II earbuds.
Just got on Tech support with QuietOn at 1:30am. They are going to send me a shipping label for a return under warranty. Waiting to see what they determine.
EXCELLENT Review!!!
Just to ask are they magnetic?
Thank you so much for your review
To much talking
Thank you for the content Katie really informative.
does it help against knocking sound like steps or heels noise?
Yes, This is what I’m concerned.
how to clean if they get dirty
so what about the SleepPhones?
Does it block loud snoring?
Cool video
I can see these having an application in my lifestyle. At home I have a white noise air purifier, and that suits me, but alas I don't always sleep at home. Thank you Katie for fighting the good fight of helping people sleep better, you sure have helped me. hugs
you are so welcome
woooo! that cameo
For the budget-minded consumer, would you mind also trying other cheaper alternatives? Maybe also like foam earplugs? And can you show how to use them properly to block sound? Thanks!
💙💙💙
whats everyones thoughts on having bluetooth around the brain all night? shurely its not a good idea? thanks for the great content
These are not bluetooth. Are you asking just in general with other devices?
these aren't bluetooth, but bluetooth is of no concern. it's such low power it barely penetrates the skin and absolutely none reaches your brain.
Hi Katie, can I get your collab email?
Lol! How she conveniently didn’t compare the size with Bose or Amazon fit . Obviously she gets paid for this, what a terrible commercial and a pathetic trick
....relax. There are other videos out there that do that if you desperately need it
On the end of a sentence your voice begins to cracking.
Please , don't do that.
Ahhh so much introduction talk
