Good.....For $20 Bucks

 

I use these sitting in my high back office chair at the computer. That way I can lean my head back and listen to MP3 samples on Amazon without the headphones getting in the way. Sound quality is O.K. It's not Carnegie Hall, but it works for me. HAPPY...

Could have been better

 

"These are decent headphones. This is the newer line of the same kind I bought several years ago, so that was a good thing. They are very light weight when you are wearing them, but the angle of the ear pieces hurt your ears after only a short period...

Price, light weight and great sound

Breaks easily, can only be work for short time and angle of ear pieces

Price, 4ft cord length

"I recently purchased these headphones, I wanted something that will stay out of my face, and will stay ON MY HEAD (I use these for running and working out, so this is very important). And these headphones are great, they do the job, and their not to...

Perfect for price

 

"It only has one wire, is very cheap, and a great deal. For the price it has good quality and is worth buying. I have had my pair for almost a year now, you must buy it."

Good quality, pretty durable, reasonably comfortable

Nothing really

Consumer review by:

Good for the price

 

"A pretty good headphone for the price. It does "float" around the ears and the frame of the headphone does rub against the back of my neck - causing a bit of discomfort from time to time while I am sitting down. Overall, I am pleased with the the...
