Great for noise, but... July 12, 2008
These work great for noise cancellation, but so do many other muffs. I bought these to get a high comfort level which I did not get on long term wearing. After about an hour I need a break from the pressure. Just for the record I wear a size 7 1/8 hat.

I bought these earphones to use when mowing and trimming the lawn or mulching yard debris. They reduce the noise level well enough for me!

I use the Bilsom Leightning L3 Earmuff on our Kubota ZD-21 diesel grass mower. The earmuff is the best of several brands that I have used over the past twenty years, and is better than previous Bilsom models that I used. The quality is in the sound protection provided with an NRR of 31. I can easily detect the superior sound protection over the previous NRR 29 Bilsom that this model replaces. High sound protection is supremely important for anyone who is exposed to high noise levels for extended times.
I agree that the earmuff is slightly fragile. That may be the price of an acceptable weight and it is a secondary consideration for my use since I can avoid physical maltreatment. For my use, the earmuff has never failed me. Sound protection is not very costly. I've been using earmuffs for many years and know of no superior earmuff at any price.
 Extremely fragile & unacceptable customer support from Bilsom September 22, 2005

Bilsom sells an ultra-fragile product and refuses to support it when it breaks. I bought the Bilsom Leightening L3 hearing protector in November 2004. In September 2005, I dropped it on a hard floor. The over-the-head piece is connected to the two ear covers with a piece of 1/4" plastic rod on each side of each ear cover. One of the plastic rods broke, making the L3 unusable. I called Bilsom customer support at 800-430-5490, and was informed that there is no warranty coverage on the L3 and that Bilsom would not supply me with a replacement part. I would have to order the part from a distributor. They gave me the number of the Fastenal Company in the 507 area code. I'm going to try to repair the L3 with a drop of super glue and a screw through the center of the plastic rod, rather than incurring expenses that will probably exceed the cost of the hearing protector. This is a nice hearing protector when new, but used in an environment other than a room with deep pile carpeting, it definitely is going to break.
