Works as expected

Provided the right amount of noise reduction that I needed, and are comfortable to wear. I bought two packs in case I messed part of the first one up.

Very easy to make them and work perfectly, gone are the days of making a mold to be able to have a customized pair of ear plugs. Thanks for the improvements

Decent for wearing under a motorcycle helmet, but very stiff.
November 8, 2021
I bought these with the intent of using them when I ride my motorcycle since other earplugs always seem to get disturbed by the motion of the helmet if I talk or yawn. These stay in place for the most part, but due to how stiff they are, they have no "give" and move with the helmet. My only complaint is that they are far too firm after they cure, but I've ridden for a couple hours with them in my ears with minimal discomfort. If they were about 15% softer after curing (resulting in a silicone-like firmness), it would be so much better.

Could be operator error

When I was making the mold, I probably didn’t push the material into my ear enough, because I didn’t get it far enough into my ear canal. I did not achieve a good seal. As a result the noise block was minimal. I think I will have it done professionally.

Rigid and uncomfortable for sleep

Bought these to help with side sleeping. They were rigid and very uncomfortable compared to foam plugs.

After the plugs dry they become firm and not so pliable. And they shrink a millimeter or two making the fit less snug and less effective. They work ok, but not as well as when they are first formed.

Once upon a time I purchased earplugs very much like these at my local Rite-Aid. Sadly, they no longer carry them. So I unfortunately had to fight with the foam earplugs and the silicone earplugs. Neither of those types of earplugs work for me. Imagine my joy when I found these online! ! I so love these earplugs. The forming of them was so simple. And they work so great. I can now sleep in the same room as my dh and his really loud snoring. Thank you so much!!!

This kit was easy to use following directions. I rediced the thickness of the outer part (the stuff not in the ear canal) with a craft knife after the plugs cured because I am not that big. We did not have to do that for the ones I made for my husband.

Very easy method for getting custom-molded ear plugs. I have previously found wax plugs to be the most effective acoustically (far better than any type of foam plugs), and this is partly because (1) you can shape them into a cylinder shape that will then fill up part of the ear canal (I tried two pairs) and (2) the stickiness of the wax helps to provide an acoustic seal. Regretably, the material of the Radians plugs is quite soft before putting them into your ear, and so I found it impossible to get the cylinder shape required to get a good seal within the ear canal. Moreover, once they have hardened, they are (understandably) not at all sticky, so don't provide a particularly good acoustic seal. It would be fantastic if the material they are made from could be modified to address both of these two points. I would then score than 5/5.

The mold process was easy, and only took ten minutes. However, these did not provide at a minimum 15db of protection. I tried test tones used for testing hearing protection and these did not pass. Could be from molding error on my part but I followed directions to a T. They do block a few db of sound but not much.

After buying earplugs most of my life for work and sports, this has been the best buy ever, as time passes our ears grow and old plugs do not fit that well anymore, now cheap and easy to have a brand new pair that custom fits your ear without having to wait. Great product!

These were easy to make up and are exactly what I needed. I needed an earplug that wouldn't irritate my ears but still block noise. These work perfectly. I will be buying another set so I can have one for travel and one set for home. The added bonus is that they are incredibly inexpensive!

I've been using professional custom made earplugs for decades now. I've been very happy with them until recently. The local business I use is no longer up to par. I thought I would try these mainly due to the price tag. Pleasantly surprised. Although it may take me a few tries to get the ideal fit, it's an excellent alternative to professional custom made.

i ordered the make your own set. I had no problems in making a set of ear plugs. They keep the water out when I take showers and block out the loud noise, but let in enough to be able to hear conversation going on around me. i will be buying another as I want to try and make the ear plugs with the ear buds in them like the video shows.
