      A:  I don't think so. They will help, but you'll still hear the mower. I use headphones that cover the whole ear to suppress the most sound, like mowing or using a gas powered pressure washer,etc.

            Recently purchased for yard work and for eork with power tools. The nicest feature is that the cushions pivot which helps you get a better fit. I tried them out while using a shop vac and having the duct eork cleanef and found that I need something that blocks more sound. This ptoduct does not meet my expectations. I hope this review is helpful.

              I don't really like the way they fit and wear. They offer some sound reduction but are not great. I'll find an alternative product for use when in my wood shop.

              This banded style hearing protector really does the job of tuning out the traffic noise. I live where traffic is constant and when trucks and motorcycles go by, it protects my ears from the noisy traffic. It needs to be wear upside down so as to perfectly fit.

              Our shop vacuum is loud so we like to use hearing protection when using it. I have found the 3M Banded Hearing Protector quick and easy to use and reduces the noise to a decent level. My husband found the pressure on his ears uncomfortable. Unfortunately, the band feels like it can be easily broken.

              I bought these to use when my husband watches TV too loud. They drown the noise enough to keep the worse of the noise out but allowed some sound so I can still hear the sounds around me. The band becomes painful after a while but I should be able to loosen it
