Moved up from the A20, which had an annoying problem, and has been happy since. A set of A20 perforated ear tips on the A30s suits their tinnitus, and the better sleep easily justified the price.

Tried all four tip sizes, large sealed best. Comfortable lying on my side, I'll give them that. But my wife's snoring still gets through, just duller. Cheap foam plugs block more than these. Twice I woke up with one in the pillowcase.

My husband snores like a leaf blower so I figured the pricey plugs would be worth trying. Took the edge off maybe 20 percent, which is not what I paid for. And I sleep on my side, the stem presses into the pillow and by 3am one has worked loose. Cheap foam ones from the pharmacy did about the same. Nicely made, just not for me.

Sound 2.0 fixed the Velcro and fit problems of the first Sound mask; a side sleeper who is stoked with the update.

Glad to upgrade from the A20 and they're used most nights. Running white noise with noise cancelling all night means the battery only lasts about seven hours, and when it dies it wakes you up.

Love them. The little ear cups needed sizing down to get comfortable, and three or four sizes come in the box.

An open-box Ozlo Sleepbuds 2 arrived like new and works as advertised and comfortably.

Reddit · r/sleepheadphones · 25 days ago

Sleep improved after a few nights of dialing in the app settings and ear tip size. Customer service has been helpful, though replies can take a day.

Loop Quiet 2 at 14 dB did not block drunk housemates' shouting at night.

Reddit · r/BuyItForLife · 29 days ago

Basic Manta works but the Velcro got loose and it digs into his ears.

Reddit · r/LoopEarplugs · 33 days ago

Coming from the rubberized first-gen Loop Quiet, the hard plastic ring does not feel secure and the standard -16 dB mode barely seems to reduce noise; the Mute inserts help, but then the Loop Quiet might as well be kept.

Three days in, they rate it 6.5 out of 10: buggy and overpriced, but they keep it for its sound selection and quality.

Reddit · r/LoopEarplugs · 45 days ago

The separate eye cups were infuriatingly fiddly to position right every time the mask was taken off for a wash.

Reddit · r/LoopEarplugs · 49 days ago

Loves the Mute inserts, which make a huge difference when the TV is too loud even with the Engage 2 alone and on the NYC subway; increasingly sound-sensitive with age, they say these are saving their sanity.

Arrived dead out of the box after making strange noises when plugged in, and customer support only sent automated responses while claiming replacement colors were out of stock.

Reddit · r/digitalminimalism · 55 days ago

Uses it and likes it very much, with none of the problems others listed in over a year of ownership.

Reddit · r/digitalminimalism · 56 days ago

Bought it refurbished at 150 dollars. After about three weeks of tuning the tones and volume it wakes them more gently, with no wifi issues.

Loop Dream earplugs improved weekend sleep.

Reddit · r/BuyItForLife · 70 days ago

Sound mask almost every night; speaker presses on the ear on the side you lie on unless the volume is loud or it is tight.

Reddit · r/BuyItForLife · 70 days ago

Night shift buyer of the Sound mask: speakers worth the price and the cups and speakers are adjustable.

Several years on the original Manta blocking light perfectly with no pressure on the eyes.

Reddit · r/sleepheadphones · 74 days ago

On night two with Bluetooth all night, no ANC and 40-50% volume, the right bud died after 7 hours with the left at about 10%. Worse battery life than their A20s, though still described as OK.

Finds it works well generally and likes the gentle alarm, but dislikes that the clock runs slow and needs a phone sync to set the time.

Reddit · r/BuyItForLife · 79 days ago

Nobody in the family likes the Classic because it is too loud.

Reddit · r/BuyItForLife · 80 days ago

Several Classic units are perfectly good and last a long while with occasional cleaning.

Reddit · r/digitalminimalism · 81 days ago

Owns one and finds it high maintenance with an unintuitive clock interface and a clunky iOS app.

Reddit · r/digitalminimalism · 85 days ago

Has had it a while and likes the wake up sounds and the sleep meditations on the clock, wishing for more content on the device.

Reddit · r/BuyItForLife · 86 days ago

Sound 2 is the only mask that works for a side sleeper, but the Velcro stops holding after a few washes.

Reddit · r/sleep · 94 days ago

Owns the Silk and the regular Manta, both block light perfectly; prefers the regular and recommends it over the silk.

Reddit · r/sleep · 95 days ago

Ozlo switches to white noise once she falls asleep, which helps with pet noise.

Reddit · r/sleep · 95 days ago

Ozlo 2 is a favorite after trying many: great battery life, small and lightweight.

Reddit · r/sleep · 102 days ago

Sound mask eye cups are too bulky and uncomfortable despite liking the mask otherwise.

Reddit · r/sleepheadphones · 104 days ago

Treat these as bedtime music earbuds rather than true noise-canceling headphones, because the active noise cancellation is practically nonexistent beyond passive ear-tip plugging. In a noisy room you have to crank the masking audio louder than the outside noise.

Reddit · r/sleep · 105 days ago

Loves Manta masks except the Silk, whose band must be snug to block light; moved the silk cups to the Pro band.

Reddit · r/sleep · 108 days ago

Lost more sleep adjusting it than before getting it, and the Velcro noise kept the husband awake. The beige fabric lets light in on the sides unless the cups are pressed tightly against the face.

Reddit · r/digitalminimalism · 109 days ago

Just bought, and the claim that the device must be restarted to change the backlight color is definitely true.

Reddit · r/LoopEarplugs · 112 days ago

Work phenomenally at lowering background noise for auditory overstimulation while still allowing conversation, but even the extra small tips put enough pressure on the ear to cause pain, so they can't keep them in.

Reddit · r/BuyItForLife · 112 days ago

The right earbud went almost silent after 3-4 months; the replacement took months and has the same issue.

Reddit · r/BuyItForLife · 113 days ago

A30 Special sits flat, stays in while tossing, has no connectivity issues, and the battery lasts all night.

Reddit · r/digitalminimalism · 115 days ago

Almost a year in on Android, the buttons have not turned yellow, the display is readable during the day and red mode works fine, and they really love the clock.

Reddit · r/BuyItForLife · 120 days ago

Four units over two years all developed a grinding fan noise at mid-to-high speeds after six to eight months of nightly use, though warranty replacements through support were easy.

Reddit · r/earplugs · 134 days ago

Tested Loop Quiet 2 against three $1 silicone earplugs: identical fit and seal, slightly better build quality for 25 times the price.

Reddit · r/BuyItForLife · 141 days ago

Restore 3 bought in March 2026: the sunrise light was magic, but the app is required, features sit behind a subscription, and the white noise glitched at day 40.

Reddit · r/sleepheadphones · 143 days ago

Least comfortable of the sleep buds compared: the bud sticks out past the ear and pushes in when side sleeping, causing pain. SomniPods are a bit smaller and more comfortable, though there was pain with both.

Reddit · r/sleepheadphones · 143 days ago

Their husband, who got maybe 4 hours of broken sleep even on Ambien, now sleeps well without it after about a month. As a side sleeper he doesn't feel them at all, though finding the right fit took some tweaking.

Reddit · r/BuyItForLife · 143 days ago

Reaching a real person to arrange a return took days, and no refund has been issued even after shipping the unit back in original packaging.

Reddit · r/earplugs · 155 days ago

Creates an internal voice-echoing occlusion effect inside the head that feels worse than standard cheap earplugs.

Reddit · r/sleep · 155 days ago

Loves the Pro mask but a cup began peeling with light use and customer service would not help.
