GBI would recommend a pass The sound is good, but overall the design is poor. The headphones move around inside the headband quite easily and are off the ears in little time if you move while trying to sleep. The battery pack is clumsy and also moves around inside the headband and puts pressure into the back of head or side of head as it moves if you change positions while sleeping. The lightweight band is quite warm and uncomfortable across the forehead… if you don’t like socks when you sleep, you won’t like this product. I had not the highest expectations, and sadly not even those were met. This is my first review of anything on line. Wait til something better comes out.

GBNot worth the money Sleepphones are significantly more expensive than other similar products on the market, but over all I'm not sure it's worth paying out. The battery pack is a very bulky unit that sits at the back of your head and digs in. Other models which are 80% cheaper have a smaller and more compact unit that sits at the front of the headband, and this aspect is far superior than anything sleepphones are currently producing. The headphones themselves are undoubtedly slimmer than anything else I have seen, but they move frequently within the fabric and have to be repositioned every evening. Overall, at around the £100, I'd expect better design. It seems like a good idea, but greed has perhaps gotten in the way of good design. I wouldn't buy again or recommend, unless the price point came down by at least 60%.

AUOnly worked for a year The headband style sleepphones are really great if you are a side sleeper. I found them very comfortable although every time I put the headband on I have to push the speakers around in the fabric for a while to get them to sit in the right place. They are not tethered in any way within the headband. I have had no trouble with bluetooth pairing or recharging them. The reason I am giving them a two star review is that after about a year of use they now produce various buzzes, whines, and hums through the speakers making them useless. This is not acceptable for a product that is priced as though it is a premium product. I have now purchased a similar headband from another company which has cost about a quarter of what I paid for these and works just the same.

GBGreat product when it works. Customer service not so great I have used the wired sleep phones for years and loved them, so I decided to try a pair of the wireless ones. Although they are comfortable, they stop working every few days. When I called the company about the problem a couple of months ago, they told me to unplug the unit and let the battery drain. This process takes 3-4 days, during which the headphones aren't usable. Once I recharge them after the drain, they do start working again. However. The process has to be repeated every few days. It's very exasperating. This is a terrible product for the expense and the customer service solution, is lame. I recommend staying with the wired version, even though it isn't as comfortable dealing with the cord. At least it works consistently.

GBThe comfort level of my sleepphones is… The comfort level of my sleepphones is excellent, I can actually sleep comfortably and wake up not knowing they have been there...no "tight" marks or sore ears!! The only issue I have found is the speakers drift if I toss and turn. Get that issue straightened out and these would be premier head sets. Soft, comfy, good sounding and a little wandery within the headband.
