I bought these for my wife for traveling. She is very pleased, the noise canceling allows her to sleep in the plane, which has not been possible in the past.
Not as sound blocking as my son's over-the-ear Bose but smaller, and half the price. Sound compares favorably. I've just owned for a short while and I can see why they may be fragile but hopefully if I'm reasonably careful, they will hold up. At home they're not as good as my Grado's or studio Sony's but still great for reasonably priced, compact headphones.

These headphones have great sound quality, although they did not block as much outside noise as I had expected. The major con is the separate battery pack. It gets in the way when traveling and is clumsy in design.

I bought these last year when I was making frequent trips between Dallas and Atlanta. I had used them about 5 or 6 times, then one time, the right side plastic hinge just broke. The whole swivel mechanism just crumbled and that was it. I tried to use them for a couple of times after that, and even tried taping the right ear piece, but without success.
I bought one pair had about 6 months and the swivel broke. Not due to hard use just poor construction and poor material workmanship. Replaced that pair and 6 months later the same thing happened to the replacement headset.. I asked the store where I bought them to replace and they refused. I would recommend this set if not for the fact that the headset is badly constructed, because mine did not get hard usage.

Purchased headset for my recent trip to China. It allowed me to listen to the music and not hear all the noise around me.

Good for air travel, but be careful with them, they are fragile. Save your reciept, you may need to replace.
THe headphones were so effective on an 14 hour flight across the Pacific that I arrived feeling refreshed instead of dog tired and grumpy. They also made the inflight entertainment sound quality much better

Disappointed with headphones. Had them for less then 2 year and used only for traveling(not a frequent traveler) The audio in left piece already crackles. The one side of the headphones, made of plastic, broke and I have to use electrical tape to hold the piece together.
