How to replace foam cushions successfully? Has anyone successfully replaced the foam cushions on this headset?

Yes, I have. You have to be very careful removing/loosening the speaker portion from the headset. This will allow you to slide the old cushions out and put the new cushions on. It's a pain in the arse but it's worth it once it's done.

Plantronics are good at taking back defective products. I've always had a year warranty on my ear piece, and I've also returned two of Plantronics headsets that was defective and they have replaced them. Just call them and let them know that the ear piece is defective and they will send you a new just like the one you had.

Amazon used to carry replacement foam ear buds. I haven't look lately. Also, many music stores have them as well but they are kind of generic and don't really last long. I can't answer about the mic cable.

Hey Shoe Envy, this is Nina well you can repurchase the headset and base again from Amazon. Or you can call the manufacturer that makes this phone as ask them about getting a replacement. If you still have the manual find the number to the manufacturer and give them a call. Nina

That is exactly what happened to mine, three other people wrote that same thing I their reviews in the last four days ! It's too bad, I have a similar headset from GG Air, and I love them, I almost bought a 2nd set of these, but after seeing the other reviews, forget it.

Yes. They are awesome at helping you out. From someone who had to send in a headset for repair, their customer service is over the top.

Contact Sharper Image customer service, 1 (877) 714-7444 . If it's still under warranty, they'll send you a new headset. If it's not under warranty, then you're out of luck.

Sorry Darlene....I am not an expert on the matter, but just used trial and error method when purchasing at Radio Shack to find the headset that worked best. Phil

I would call the manufacturer to verify. I tried several different models only to find out our specific phone model didn't have a headset available. :( I hope you have better luck than I did.

Have you tried changing the ear cushions to see if one set works better than the other two?

I have not found any such problem with my new headset. I used an identical one for at least 5 years, and never experienced this.

I'm considering switching headsets (for work telecommuting) as my Logitech H555 does not have replacement pads and I cannot find any replacements specified for Logitech's model. From this question, it appears Sennheiser may suffer the same fault. Although very expensive, these look like a great candidate. But if I cannot get replacement pads, I'll look elsewhere. Why is it a premium product line does not make it easy to replace parts that are expected to wear out?

I have only wiped them with a moist cloth and long ago I have washed them with just water little to no soap. Your best bet is to replace them. My experience is that the memory foam characteristic diminishes well before needing to clean the foam tips. I use q-tips/cotton swabs in my ears daily so it's rare that I see earwax on my foam tips. I imagine that if you are against using q-tips or if your ears produce lots of earwax, you may be inclined to clean the foam tips more.

No clue. The seller contacted me a few days ago and said that they had received a bad batch of headsets. They are sending me a replacement and refunded my money. If the new ones work, I'll be updating my review.

Have no idea have not had anything like that happen to me. I would contact the company if you can and talk to them about it. I just have not had any problems to date with my headset.

The same thing happen to me but it happened to one of the two I purchased two years before. I don't think it should have happened but, I got good use out of them before it happened. As a result, I bought two more Sony MDR-RF970RK headsets and they are doing fine now after six months. I may have been rougher than I should have or maybe not. Would I buy the same headsets again. Yes, are better than anything else I have tried and now I am more careful. Should they be replaced, hard to say. I think in the long run the individual is the only one who really know the answer to that.

Motorola headsets are not a great one. It has a few problems here and there. Read the manual to find out how to reset the headset. For mine (a different model than this), I have to turn it off then press the volume button, the connect button, then turn it on while pressing them. Good luck.
