do these come apart? I bought a pair of these several months back and they fall apart all the time, in the car, at the gym, everywhere.

Mine have not fallen apart yet and I have been using them for about three months now.

Yes, the first time I put mine on, they came apart. I returned them before I ever plugged them in to the iPod.

I thought it was just me! I got my pair in summer '07, and they failed less than a year later. I had them replaced via Shure, and now the replacements have failed again. I don't use them excessively - they just seem to wear out. Other than the high probability of failure, these headphones are awesome.

Well if you're doing any physical activity they have a chance of falling out (although it rarely happens for me). Sound quality is actually pretty good for the price.

Well I looked and couldn't find an answer to the question. However, I thought you might want to know that I've had mine over a year now, and so far so good. I've been real careful with them because the first pair didn't last long, but I was careful with that pair too. This pair has worked great, and at this point I have no complaints. I hope that helps a little.

When I had them, they never fell out of my ears when running or working out. The problem was, they shorted out after about 2 months.

I've used mine nearly every day, several hours at a time, for perhaps 5 years. They are falling apart now and I am back at Amazon to order another pair!

No, they don´t come off or at least in the one we bought. BTW, it no longer works. It only lasted a couple of weeks. Get something better.

I use mine for running and it never falls off. It's a pretty tight fit. I never had a problem with them at the gym.

No, the ear cushions do not come off easily. I have been able to use these while working out without them falling off.

Yes I have a few times. They don't fall off at all they are perfect for running! And because they're Bluetooth you don't have any annoying wires in the way and if it rains you've got no excuse to stop running because they're waterproof.. Perfect for runners!

I bought them as a gift for a friend, but I've used hers before and haven't had too much of a problem. They snap really tight, I know... I think they just need to get worn in. I will ask her next time we talk and see if there's a trick to it.

Dont get these... All of mine fell off after a few months. They dont snap in completely.

How long is a long time? I probably have a pair that I use at least 3 times a week while hopping around at the gym. They may last between 6 months to a year. But they are so inexpensive, with fantastic sound, plus the ear piece stays in my ear; totally worth it to me. Good luck!

So far they have held up. I am sure they must have been dropped at one time or another. If you have heard this, maybe try another brand. My grandsons have had them since December and haven't heard of any problems. If I hear of any, I will post it.

The regulars are notorious for breaking after a few months...the Pros are pretty good but still break...these are indestructible...remember, if they even break once, the pain in the ass of getting replacements warrants the extra few bucks to get the Elites the first time around...I've dropped mine hundreds of times and they still look brand new.

They are not an completely secure fit. It takes little effort to pull then apart. I bent mine trying to make then more secure. That being said, they have not pulled apart on their own.

No mine haven't broken and seem quite sturdy; I especially like the flat cord because there is less tangling so less pulling. They do fall out of my ears a lot and I've tried every adapter and so the sound is only average. Honestly, my Apple earbuds (the latest version) stay in very well and the sound is just as good. The Sol ones would sound better if I could really hear it with well fitting earbuds. So if that type of ear fits you well then they would be better. Hope this helps.
