Fantastic headset for the moneyby JerryH - July 20, 2006
Pros: Simple, clean, efficient in any environment. Great crystal clear sound from mic and earpiece. I bought one to use in the car, then another for use at home. Then I bought one for my girlfriend.
Cons: Putting it in your ear takes a little getting used too.. But not much different from the good quality iPod earplugs.
Review:
Other than a blue tooth unit, this is the best solution if you have an older phone that doesn't support blue tooth. Worth every dollar...

Absolutely the best headsetby Unbridled - August 19, 2005
Pros: Sound quality, light, comfortable
Cons: Wish it had some kind of cord winder to prevent tangling
Review:
I have tried lots of different headsets. Most have, at best, mediocre sound quality and are not very comfortable. I bought this one because I use my cell phone for business quite a bit, and the tin can quality of the others I tried was not suitable. For me personally, none of the supplied tips worked--I am a woman with, apparently, small ear canals--but for a nominal fee, Etymotic will mold an eartip for you (you will spend about $5 to get an earmold made at a local doctor's office). Now I have a headset that I can literally wear for hours with no discomfort. You can speak at a normal level even in airports. This is a very durable headset--my first one lasted over a year before I finally had accidentally yanked the wiring enough times to sort of damage the connection. The only thing I would change is to have some kind of winder so when the headset is not in use or is in a purse or bag, the wire wouldn't get wrapped around everything. This is a great headset; you will not regret spending the money.

Great earset for road/office useby mfidel - April 7, 2005
Pros: lightweight, comfortable, adjustible mic boom
Cons: Cord could be longer, wish it were cordless...
Review:
The simplicity of this earset's design is amazing. The microphone is sensitive to my voice and cancels out background noise very well.
