do these help to reduce noise as well?

Yes they do, but because they are a bit sticky, you wouldn't sleep with them. On a plane, fine.

I would think that they would since the ear canal is blocked when you use them. They have a tacky texture so dirt/hair/lint sticks easily.

I would assume, You are putting a piece of putty in the ear and sealing it around the ear opening. They are for our 18 mo old grandson so I cannot not answer for positive.

Yes, but they don't work like a pair of earplugs to cancel all noise. They are intended to cancel a continuous background noise like the drone of a jet engine or car engine and wind noise while riding in a car. They reduce ambient noise by several decibels. They will muffle the sound of nearby conversations down to a level where you can't understand the words.

Noise reduction. I just want to add that for the price, these are excellent. I have several sets.

They do work well to deaden the sound from our mower. We do however have an electric, so it does produce less decibels than a gas mower. Hope that helps!

I don't know the noise reduction is, just that they work really well for me but then I wear hearing aids and these are the best ones I've tried.

No, these will not help you. You can hear everything around, little to no protection at all. I bought 3 sets for same reasons. Try another product.

Yes. It reduces noise significant ly. But I am not sure how the neighbour's below are being affected. They didn't complained. It can depend on the building also.

I really don't know but don't see why they wouldn't significantly reduce the noise. I have to tell you I love mine but the wire is so cheaply made I don't use them very often. I use Koss Studio Headphones that are Bulletproof but very heavy. Good luck!

I'm glad you note "noise REDUCTION" because these are not true "noise-cancelling" just because they cover the ear and block out sound to some extent. Noise cancelling is an extra white noise sound that plays throughout use.

Noise cancelling reduces background noise whatever it is, air conditioning, people talking, etc. It does not eliminate the sounds, but noise cancelling does reduce it.

No, they will not reduce the sound enough. The foam earplugs will protect your ears and muffle the sound much better than these.

They reduce some of the background noise but not all of it. They are best at reducing regular noises like the hum from air conditioning or air-plane noise. I got them to try and reduce noise from people talking in my office but it didn't really help with that.

No but they will help soften the sound tremendously. I have every inch of my walls covered but you can still hear the sound on the other side of the wall. You can definitely hear the difference with them on the walls though.

No they are not designed to be noise canceling, however they do reduce outside noise a little because they cover your ears completely.

I don't believe they would completely block the sound or create COMPLETE silence. I live right on a major road (4 lanes of traffic) with my bedroom facing the road, and they block out most of that noise...to the point where I can sleep soundly. I hope this helps.

It definitely lessens them, but I doubt anything practical will completely block low deep noises, since these tend to pass through almost any barrier. Regardless, this is the best sound machine that I know of. The company also provides excellent service - twice sending me a new one when one of the two I recently bought had a problem. I've also bought several other models from them over the last 20 years or so for a variety of situations.

No. If your referring to external noise, there is very little, if any noise reduction. The ear pieces have a foam cover that does little to keep noise out. Hope this helps.
