Fit well and were comfortable, but accentuated my tinnitus

My Mom is a really light sleeper to the point where she would wake up 5 times at night and suffers from fatigue during daytime, whereas my Dad has the heaviest snoring I've ever known of. She used to wear noise-cancelling earphones but they aren't typically designed for sleeping, uncomfortable, and are bad for hearings. I bought this sleepbud in light of these reasons, I was skeptic at first about whether it would cancel heavy snoring sounds but according to my mom it REALLY did! The only drawback is that it requires sounds to play, but all of them are natural sounds and lasts all night. Overall satisfied purchase.

These are amazing. I have had the first version of these that Bose came out with, and they had some issues. When they finally died after 3 years, I had to have something or I was not going to sleep. I was so happy to see that Bose had a version 2 of their Sleepbuds. These are amazing. All the issues that v 1 had, these don't. The software is better, the hardware is better, they are top notch. If you have never used anything like this, I'll tell you, they block out ambient sound and then play white noise of your choice, at the volume of your choice, and the alarm can be set to what you choose and the volume you choose. Thank you Bose!

If you don't mind something in your ears while you sleep, and you have trouble sleeping due to random night noises, this is great and has been pivotal to getting a good nights rest!

These have been a life saver or should I say sleep saver. Since moving into a senior apartment community, I’ve had to battle my neighbor about her loud TV. Our bedroom walls are adjacent and she’s hard of hearing. She blasts that TV all night. She did start using a timer to turn it off at 10PM but sometimes the TV comes on during the night and wakes me up. She must roll over on the remote control or something. With these sleep buds, I no longer hear her TV or the sounds of the city. Best of all, my neighbor can now watch TV in bed. I felt bad depriving her of that simple pleasure but I’m still working and need my sleep.

Won’t hold a charge for more than 3 nights.. Great product and does exactly what it is intended to do, but if I were to travel for a weekend trip I’d have to bring the charging cable as the case and buds last max 3 nights. Honestly considering warranty claim because it’s hard to believe the battery is this bad.

These are excellent. I work overnights and have trouble sleeping during the daytime these Sleepbuds mask the noise and they play soothing sounds. I have slept well the last few days.

Love how these buds block any unwanted sound when I am trying to sleep. The wings keep them in place and don’t need to look for them in the morning. I do wish you could play music In them as an option

These sleep buds are very comfortable, even for side sleepers. However, the pricetag is hard to justify when it cant play podcasts or music but is limitee exclusively to the library of sleep noises from the bose app.

It took me a while to realize how amazing these are because I used them for the first time in a brand new apartment that I had never slept in without them. While I agree that it would be great if they didn’t have to be setup every night from phone, the quality of the sound masking is insanely good. I discovered that one night when I fell asleep without them and was woken up by what I guess is the normal noise of the Boston Fenway Park area. I had never heard it. In addition to the noise masking effects, there are also some “tranquility” sounds that are lovely for when I wake up too early. I can listen to these rather than my own thoughts. They can also be used for concentration while studying. Love, love, love.

My wife swears by these! Her 1st pair failed for some reason, but the (begrudging) 2nd pair has been running strong. Quite comfy, even for side sleepers (like her). Great noise cancelling.

I wanted the previous version of these but decided not to try them based on the mixed reviews. These were given to me for my birthday and I was so excited to receive them as I have the worst time staying asleep at night. While I am quickly bored with the sound selection, I will say that I am staying asleep longer, however I still wake at least a couple of times each night, and it is usually from the pain of one or both of the earbuds in my ear, as I am a side sleeper. I have tried on all the different tips for comfort and am currently using a different size in each ear for the most minimal discomfort. If there were no ear pain and an option to select my own music, I would give these 5 stars for the simple fact that I have gone from 3-4 hrs of sleep per night to averaging 6-7 hrs and that's excluding the middle of the night awakenings. getting a good night's sleep is literally priceless so if these can be improved I would pay the higher price in a heartbeat!

Game changer if you have troubles falling asleep. These are comfortable and play pleasant/soothing sounds. One drawback is you cannot play your own music/books—only what app allows.

I’ve been using these for about a month now and really like them. I used to use ear plugs every night and these and much more comfortable. I like the alarm function as well. Hearing my alarm over my ear plugs was always a challenge. It did take a few nights for my ears to get used to the buds but now I don’t even notice them. I would certainly recommend!

My wife like them when they work. Unfortunately after a few months of ownership one of the earbuds will only last 6 hours and she end up waking up when it fails. She also often has trouble with the app or buds connecting. Not worth the price.

I was worried that these wouldn’t be worth the high price, but omg they are. I’ve always had sleep issues…can’t sleep while hearing any voices, tv, animals, snoring and even silence. I’ve always needed a fan or white noise machine to be able to sleep. My SO isn’t into that so luckily these have honestly saved the day. These have been a game changer.

These Bose Sleepbuds have literally saved my husband’s life! His snoring has been out of control, and these little gems have succeeded in drowning out the worst of his nighttime cacophonous droning!!! They took about a week to become accustomed to - the first few days I was convinced I would be returning them because they were very uncomfortable. Now I pop them in and sleep like a baby - they accomplish exactly what I need!!!

They work. I have garbage upstairs neighbors in my “luxury” apartment and can’t move to the top floor for a few more months and needed something to help me sleep. I have been using my Sony noise canceling headphones* the amazing $350 ones but for some reason, when it’s set to noise canceling the left ear cup RINGS. So I can only use them without noise canceling - aka useless. Looked into these and took a chance. First off, they work. They work great. And they fit great. And since they’re ear buds I can actually sleep on my side again and they don’t fall out. I also love the app and the options. But minus 1 star for the sound quality. BOSE, THAT DOES NOT!!! SOUND LIKE RAIN ON A CAR OR WINDOW OR ANYTHING. My god,the sounds are great except for my favorite (which isn’t on this product) rain. It sounds like rain through $10 ear buds. But overall, 75% volume and I can’t hear a thing. Worth the money.

The app is a little buggy on iOS, but these sleep buds work a charm. My wife can't sleep well in hotels but with these in she's able to stay asleep no problem. Even better than just regular earplugs and no discomfort even after a whole night of sleep.

I love these! They have changed my life. My wife somehow emits the most unholy, un-natural sounds at such a volume as has not been heard by the likes of man-kind since the explosion at Krakatoa. These have effectively countered her hitherto sleep preventing auditory emissions to the point where I believe I am not getting much better sleep than I have for a long, long time.
