Even good quality headphones often break after a while, especially bud earphones. Whether you use them a lot, accidentally step on them or fall asleep with them on they tend to break quite easily.
If you like to wear headphones whilst going to sleep it's best to get noise cancelling type headphones in order to reduce background noise. This also means you can keep the volume down and save your hearing in the long term. More importantly when you're wearing headphones in bed though is the need to be comfortable. This is where Sleepphones come in, a well thought out solution to this problem. They are especially designed for the user to fall asleep wearing them.
When you order sleepphones you are sent two colours of polar-fleece headbands that have a standard 3.5mm cable running down the back. The cable is longer than average in order to allow the wearer to move during the night without getting stuck.
This is perfect for colder climates, but you may be concerned if you live somewhere warmer. Sleepphones don't seem to make you too hot during the night but also act like a sweat band, typical of athletes in the 80's. So this is perfect for those wishing to live out there sports fantasies whilst going to sleep.
Sound quality is key to any good set of headphones and Sleepphones deliver, at least to some extent and enough for the purpose they are intended for. Whilst they don't offer the best level of noise-cancellation and the sound may spill out a bit, the actual sound quality is decent. The Sleepphones are not exactly on par with expensive yet quality brands such as Bose and Sennheiser, they are comfortable and have material protection between the ear and the speaker. This makes them more comfortable to go to sleep with and ultimately protects the speaker a little.
