I have small ears how well does this stay in? I've tried numerous ear pieces

Hi Gayle, because it has a hook that allows the Plantronics device to dangle from the ear, it does not have to be directly in the ear in order to work properly. In fact, most times when I use mine my earpiece is not directly in my ear; it is in the outer ear but I have no trouble hearing or talking on it and no problem with people on the other end listening to me. Because it is always attached to your ear by the hook over the ear, you will never lose it and it will pick up your voice perfectly! Hope this helps...

Yep, getting the right eartips for perfect fit is a bit tricky but once you do, consider it stuck in your ear, that's given you use the provided securefit ear cushions

I think I have small ear canals as well and they fit me, but I do have to fold them in half and shimmy them in a bit to get a secure fit. Once in they stay put and are comfortable, plus they do a good job of blocking sound. My guess is they will work for you too.

You could have chosen a wrong size ear tip [the white plastic thing as described]; try the rest that supplied with the device, there are five of them in different sizes, one of those should fit you well

I use a little lotion around the ear canal to get my earbuds to slide in. It might help you so that you won't have to squeeze it.

My experience is that it comes through both sides. I would check the placement of your earpieces and make sure they line up properly. That may be part of your issue. Other then that it appears not to be functioning correctly.

I think it'll depend on what you're doing, and also how your ears are shaped. The plug in my right ear is air tight (no water gets in) and stays that way, even when I use this for wake sports and take high speed falls. I might need to play with the sizes more on my left ear, though. Make sure to try the different rubber tips, but you might be lucky and get a good air tight seal.

That could be the case. My Girlfriend cannot get them to stay in her ears either nor her brother. Both have small shallow ear cavities. I'd try a few different angles with the stabilising loop to see if you can get it too stay. Another alternative I can suggest is that the Bose in ear headphone grommets fit on them. If you like the form factor and are willing to experiment. Try to find a friend with a pair of Bose headphones and ask if you can have their smallest spare grommets or experiment with some other headphone grommets if you have some lying around. Good luck!

I think it fits comfortably. Most days I put it in my ear around 8 am and don't remove it until sometime after 10 pm. I don't have problem with it falling out of my ear. I would definitely buy this item again if I had need of a new one due to loss or inadvertant destruction.

It stays in very well using the ear hook. At first it felt like it wasn't fitting as snug as some others I've had, but after a while I realized it is far more comfortable because it's not crammed in my ear, and the audio doesn't suffer. I wear it every day commuting, and it has never fallen out.

The rubber tip keeps it snug in your ear. There is also a plastic hoop that can be attached which will help keep it in.

I think you'll be fine with small. Just make sure you read the correct way to insert them into your ear.

My problem with the earpiece is that it never feels secure in my ear -- if I walk with it in, it even falls out sometime. I have the smallest insert on the earpiece, but it doesn't help (note that I have the same problem with the standard iPod headphone) -- is there a solution for this?

We use buds quite a bit with this set up but have found selection of buds matters on how well they stay in. You will have to probably try a variety of buds to find one that fits the best, usually the smaller the better. I have some small Sonys that fit pretty good. The "marshmallow" buds did not stay in place at all. Good luck, be careful as the volume of this head set can drown out traffic noise.

They're surprisingly good at staying in your ears, and they come with 3 different sizes in case the initial size doesn't fit right. They have never fallen out of my ears by themselves.

they are very cheaply made. the plastic piece that holds the ear piece already came out of its hole but i could just push it back in. I really love them because it keeps them on my ears. good luck!

I do not know about small ears but I can tell you that of the three that I have purchased two had to be returned because they died within one or two swims (Amazon was real good about refunding my money). I do not know what happened to the quality but the first one I had and lost I loved. The next two were absolute duds. I ended up buying another brand Diver MP3 which came with several size ear buds and has not given me one bit of problem. I swim every day and have use it for over 6 months without problems and love it.
