Does anyone use these for sleeping? I am wondering if they are comfortable with multi-hour use, sleeping on the side, do they stay in all night, etc.

Yes, I've worn them for sleeping for a few years now due to noisy neighbors. They are comfortable with multi-hour use; sometimes a new pair can seem a bit large when first worn (hurting my ear a bit, but I have small ears). If this happens, I just pull them out a bit and all is well. And they do stay in all night if you insert them according to the directions on the package (pull ear up and back, roll the plug tightly and insert). I don't know what I'd do without these, they are a lifesaver as far as my sleep!

They are soft and good for sleeping. However, that's very subjective and everyone is different. I use them for 6-8 hours under a helmet on a motorcycle. Also, the fit may take some practice but once you learn how to insert and extract them comfortably they should be good for any use. They stay in place. In fact, be careful extracting them. Go slowly so you don't create a vacuum against your eardrums.

Yes to all. I wear for sleeping, sleep on my side and they stay in and are comfortable for me

These are perfect for sleeping. I use them for sleeping in a very noisy part of the city

They comfortable, but I won't recommend sleeping with them. But if you do fall asleep, like many people said before, they do fall out to protect your ear I guess.

I actually didn't with them as I primarily used them for a concert, but I'd have to assume they would be perfectly comfortable to sleep with. They don't feel heavy or seem to strain your ears as some headphones might when you sleep with them.

I bought them for concerts and riding my motorcycle. They the sound in without sounding muffled. For me they do not reduce noise enough for sleeping. I use foam ear plugs for that.

I would not recommend them to sleep in. I don't think they would stay on your head. Plus they don't last long enough to spend your on.

I just bought these and slept all night in them...even on my side. Woke up in the AM and they were still in my ears. No pain, no catching the cord on anything. Of course, that's just my experience with them.

Yes! They stay in really well. And I definitely have slept with them a few times and they have never fallen out. And I sleep on my side too!

My mother in law only sleeps on her back so I really don't know how they would work with a side sleeper, but they work great for her. Possibly some pads on the side would help. Good luck.

Never an issue. I sometimes have them on for 7 hours while I sleep during the day.

That is exactly why I chose the Flents Quiet Please Foam Ear Plugs. They were the ONLY ones I tried that did not fall out my ear, whether sleeping or other activities. I sleep on my side as well and you will hardly be aware they are in your ear. They are very comfortable.

AP Did you ever try these for sleeping? Or did you find another solution? My 13 year old son who has Autism can only sleep with headphones on and I am looking for a pair comfortable enough to sleep in.

I find this set more comfortable for longer periods - I've worn them for 3-5 hrs my ears get tired. I had similar ones to the foam and it flattens out quickly and gets uncomfortable faster. Ultimately I think that head width and how much they have to stretch side to side will make a difference for some people - for me it isn't an issue.

yes, I would highly recomend them. You will be able to sleep on your side with them on.I use them only in the daytime around loud noise, it blocks out 75% of the volume.However, for sleeping you could get the foam ones that are disposible from a drug store. These would drown out about the same volume.

They are pretty quiet. I put them on when I lay down and I fall asleep everytime! They are great for an afternoon nap! My sister uses them for restless leg.

You could, however, the size of the earmuffs would be a hinderance if you attempted to sleep on your side. I believe using them for sleeping is a hit and miss proposition.

They're great for that , if you sleep on your back. If you sleep on your side, sooner or later you will break the connecting wire and end up with expensive mono headphones. My daughter has gone through too many headphones because of the way she sleeps.

I sleep in mine all the time. With my ear in the pillow sometimes the marshmallow type cushion will close off and the sound will bemuffled, but I just move my head a bit until it opens up again.The other cushions don't do this but I find the marshmallowsmore comfortable. I pretty much live with these in my ear. ;)
