Mack's Silicone Earplugs - White - 6 Pair

Unfortunately, my home is now next to an Apartment Construction, and the activity generates all kinds of noise at all decibel levels - metal banging , loud thud sounds , high pitch humming , from 65 dB up to 90 dB. ( and they simply don’t care ). I have tried all kinds of noise cancellation solutions, over the last 10 months. 1. 3M Ear Plugs ( Orange ones ) 2. Loop Dream - Silicone Memory Foam 3. Active NC(ANC) Headphones 4. Mack’s Silicone Earplugs The only thing that works best( for me )are the Mack’s Silicone Earplugs. Below are pros/cons of Mack’s. Pros: —— 1. Blocks noise really well. 2. Fits the contours of ear very well - the silicone adapts to the shape of your ears. 3. Lesser discomfort compared to 3M, for long time wear. Cons: ——- 1. Gets dirty with use. Need to replace after 6-10 days of use , or lesser ( depending on usage) 2. Expensive. 6 pack pair costs ~ ₹ 1000 ( as of Mar 2026) What to Buy? ——————- 1. If are fed up with noise, and nothing you tried has worked well , and your mental sanity depends on effectively blocking the most noise, and you have highly sensitive hearing, buy Mack’s. 2. Next best thing to buy are the 3M plugs. ( orange ones) Don’t Buy ————- Avoid Loop Dream at all costs. ( Loop Dreams simply don’t work. ). Hope this helps. Good Luck.

First I had ordered FOAM plugs from 3M a reputed American company, but FOAM is NOT effective. I had to throw it. As this was for a patient, I then ordered MACK silicon plugs. Surprisingly, it is super effective though the price is high because I believe it was imported from USA as a one off piece. One thing for sure, do NOT buy the foam ones available locally - waste.

I have a bar behind my bedroom, which makes sleeping very difficult. I've tried all kinds of things including the orange earbuds.. But nothing much helped. I was really hopeful on this product, but turned out to be of no use. It claims to block out 22 dB of sound, but honestly, it really dint make any difference whatsoever.. I remember reading a review where someone mentioned u might as well use cotton! I think the orange medical earbuds were really much better

These are genuine Mack's Pillow Soft Silicone Earplugs from USA, except in USA they cost Rs 280 ($3.95) and here in India they cost Rs 1,039 ($14.60). I have been using them for over 20 years and they are my favorite earplug because there is no pain like the types that you have to put inside the ear canal. For these, you roll them into a ball and you press them on top of the ear opening and it creates a seal. I use them every night and they last about 2-3 weeks. Then they are too dirty and the stickiness goes away so I have to throw them and use a new pair. Like with all earplugs, the sounds do not go away entirely, but they are muffled so noise is easier to ignore.

Mack's Silicone Earplugs (6 Pairs) are made from a kind of malleable silicone putty that can be shaped to stick to the user's outer ear canal, thus creating a seal that blocks out noise. While it is really effective in blocking out noise, the 'sticking' power of the putty starts to lessen after about 3-4 uses per piece. This means that each ear plug is likely to fall out of the ear, especially when used by sleepers who toss and turn their heads quite a bit while sleeping. The product is best used when the user is AWAKE, but needs a quiet environment for activities such as reading, writing, meditation etc. Also, the diminishing adhesive power of the silicone putty makes it too expensive to be used on a daily basis.

Great product

Being used for both sleeping and swimming. I've been using it regularly. It took some time to get used to, but it works. After few weeks of using it everyday it bruised my inner ear a bit. I was misusing it though, I split in half, and stick it as hard as I can for maximum benefit. Probably a good idea to avoid using it everyday for a long time. All in all, it's the only product I've found that I can use here in India. Been serving me in Israel as well, when I first found about it.

Game changer for a peaceful sleep. Dont know why they are rated so poorly. Maybe internationally there are better products but my doctor recommended these and they have done wonders. Till I find a better product (maybe better fitment) these are the best!

The perfect earplug for individuals such as I who are easily woken by sound. The silicone is malleable and easily shaped to contour to your ears BUT do not force it inside your ear canal. Noise cancellation is superb and won't affect sleeping on the side. Worn it first and had 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Will definitely buy again.

Ich habe oft Schaumstoff Ohrstöpsel versucht, aber egal wie sehr ich sie komprimiert habe, sie wollten einfach nicht meine Ohren passen. Hab irgendwann erfahren, dass meine Gehörgänge zu eng sind. Darum habe ich mich dazu entschlossen diese Ear Plugs von Mack's zu kaufen. Warum nicht Ohropax? In dem Fall war es der Preis und die guten Bewertungen, die mich überzeugt haben die Mack's auszuprobieren und ich wurde nicht enttäuscht. Von einigen habe ich den Tip bekommen die Stöpsel zu teilen und das funktioniert prima. Nicht nur habe ich dadurch die doppelte Anzahl, sondern sie passen auch super in meine kleine Ohren und drücken nicht, wenn ich auf der Seite liege. + für kleine Gehörgänge geeignet, da sie nicht in den Gehörgang geschoben werden, sondern von außen abdichten + lassen sich super halbieren und damit habe ich die doppelte Anzahl + hinterlassen keinen klebrigen, ekligen Film wie die aus Wachs + aber kleben genug, um nicht sofort aus dem Ohr rauszufallen + prima Schutz gegen Lärm + unauffällige Farbe + lassen sich super mehrfach verwenden (ich verwende sie ca. 10 -15mal) + super Preis im Vergleich zur Konkurrenz - manchmal schwitze ich unter den Stöpseln - wenn sich der Stöpsel ein wenig löst (vom schwitzen), kommt der Lärm sofort durch Für mich aber kein Grund einen Stern abzuziehen, da ich einfach super froh bin, angenehm zu tragende Stöpsel gefunden zu haben, die auch für meine kleinen Ohren prima geeignet sind. Werde mir auf jeden Fall wieder die Stöpsel von Mack's besorgen.

My roommate and I bought these because we moved into an apartment right next to a train crossing - the trains blow their whistles all night. We both noticed our sleep quality went down as we were waking several times a night. These earplugs have made a significant difference. You can still hear the trains when you're awake with the earplugs in, but they muffle the sound enough that it no longer wakes us up while we're sleeping. I was concerned that these plugs would make me sleep through my alarm, but so far, it hasn't been an issue. They're not uncomfortable or particularly hard to use - you can pretty much tell whether they are in correctly or not based on what you can hear. When they're in correctly, the sound reminds me of being underwater. I fall asleep on my side but turn a lot throughout the night, and they haven't fallen out yet. Overall, I highly recommend these and was impressed with the price, considering how well they've worked for me. I'll continue to buy them as replacements when the current pairs get worn out. I'm not sure how long they'll last but the texture does tend to hold hair/grime so I will be replacing them fairly frequently. But I highly recommend them for anyone looking to fall asleep in a busy, loud area.

Very good

O produto isola bem o som, mas da para ouvir um despertador tocar, barulhos muito altos, mas comprei para intuito de amenizar o barulho do vizinho de cima e deu muito certo. Fica certinho dentro do ouvido, não incomoda no dormir (inclusive deitar de lado) excelente! Obs: só achei que poderia ter durabilidade maior, em 5 dias ele perde a aderência…
