Great Idea

(4 out of 5) by Maxwell C. E. Mcguire on Oct 16, 2009 (Albuquerque, NM USA)
I love this set up! No cords, no hassles, and it fits snuggly around your ears. The one thing I'm worried about (no problems yet) is the material quality. It feels like the black wrap-around-back plastic is overly flimsy, and I can't help but fear that I will mess it up if I land on my pocket wrong. Something I would like is if they had some really high-quality headphones, like some massive sound-cancelers, that were the same style.
I've also found that if I have these headphones on for too long, it really starts to hurt my ears. I say too long, but it really doesn't seem to have any specific time limit.

I dunno, I like the idea, but I wish that it would slightly more comfortable and higher quality materials.

A nice headphone.

The headphones are nice and very convenient -- especially at the gym -- no cords to flop around or get tangled in. Two dislikes -- 1) The center hinge is very weak so the headphone does not sit very tightly and tends to slide around a lot -- I fixed this problem by taping around the hinge, but now I can't close it. 2) All the weight is on the side of the Shuffle -- it would be nice if there was some sort of counter-weight on the other side so that the headphone sits evenly. All-in-all, I like the product and I'm glad I got it.

Great Concept Bad Execution

(1 out of 5) by Nicole Bryan on May 27, 2009 (Florida, USA)
Wireless headphones for Ipod Shuffle, what an awesome concept! One problem, as others have said, they are not adjustable. I read some other reviews and figured I would be ok because I have a pretty small head ie most hats are too big for me. I'm not sure who they designed these headphones for, perhaps a baby or really small child. The bottom of the earpieces hit just below the start of my ear. The design is so ridiculous, I'm pretty floored that anyone would have ever made these! Couldn't tell you how they sound since the earpiece doesn't come close enough to actually hear! Would rate this item with -2 stars if I had the option!

Great idea but too flimsy

(2 out of 5) by Michelle D. Warren on May 11, 2009 (Dulles, VA United States)
I really like the concept of not having cords but the material used for the construction of this product is sub-par. This is my second one. The first one broke after about 4 months when it fell on the floor and the second one has come apart at the hinges and I now have to try and shove it back into place or put some duct tape on it. Always a bad fashion choice. This would be a perfect item if they would use sturdier material. I have also purchased the Arriva ipod shuffle headset which is of sturdier material but I am still trying to get it configured for my ears and head. I've had it for a month now. There has to be some engineer out there who can figure this out.
