Customer Reviews for 3M WorkTunes Digital Hearing Protector with AM/FM Stereo Radio

Bought 3M tekk in 2014 and other then changing the batteries twice a year, they have worked and fit fine. I take very good care of my equipment including these 3M tekk. 2021 the right ear piece finally failed. Otherwise no problems.

I like this hearing protector / radio. The reception is excellent 99% of the time. The digital turning is very smooth. The power consumption is on par with the old analog type of radios. I wish coil springs were used in the battery compartment. The leaf spring used in it does not adjust to minor variances in battery length well. It is easy to bump the tuner knob and change station accidentally. I wish the mode button can also function as a knob function initiator. For this I mean to enable the knobs, that mode button has to be pushed first. After that, the knobs are enabled for a short period of time, such as 10 seconds. Without pushing the mode button, the knobs will not function. This will eliminate the chance that the knobs are being bumped accidentally. The first push of the mode button just achieves that. The second (and following) pushes will change the mode. This is just my little suggestion.

I have had several sets of worktunes over the years. They work well at keeping equipment noise and unwanted chatter at bay. Being a self-employed contractor sometimes you just need to get the job done. My issue with the new series of headphones is that I have lost the tuning knob on not one but two sets. Hired my nephew and did not want him to go deaf so I got him a set. Both sets have lost the knob.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these 3M Digital Worktunes Hearing Protector and AM/FM Stereo Radio headset in exchange for my opinion and review. First of all, this headset is durable and hugs my head well. The ear cushions are comfortable and it cancels out most outside noise. I do wish the headset was a bit smaller as it is quite bulky. Another thing I like about these headphones is the automatic 2 hour shut off when there’s no activity within 2 hours. This saves battery life so I appreciate that. I prefer these to be rechargeable instead of batteries. I am currently using rechargeable batteries. Having both options would be best as charging takes time whereas refilling batteries allows for quicker use. However, batteries cost extra especially rechargeable ones. On this headset I am able to store up to 25 am stations and 25 fm stations. I have found at least 28 fm stations and already stored about 12. Recall mode allows me to listen only to my stations stored with a touch of a button. The volume on this device isn’t as loud as I would like but it is better for the ear drums. Because it cancels out loud noises around, I can hear the music very well. I could enjoy listening to my music while using my loud blender and also mowing my lawn. I would recommend these headphones especially if they were less bulky and maybe a little lower price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently received my 3M work tunes headphones sample for free to review. The first thing I noticed after I took it out of the box was that it was lightweight and a nice look. I was surprised that it is battery operated which is nice and makes for easy use. It takes 2 AA batteries that are not included. The battery compartment is rather tight and it takes some effort to get them in. The fit of the headphones are good and the controls are easy to use. This product does what is designed for to reduce noise and with the radio it is a plus.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got the set free to try out. I love them I like the fact that it speak to you and tells you what channel you have tuned in.

I run a D6 bulldozer which has a cab these things work great

The hearing protection is excellent, the radio a bonus, and so comfortable to wear!

Product works great. Ear padding was comfortable against my head. Programming of radio stations was easy via instructions. The sound was really good. Has a dial knob for volume and another for tuning. They are manageable even with light gloves on. Using the push buttons, for stations I pre-set, is easy enough without gloves. Not sure why the Title line reads (Case of 4), I just bought one.

I have had my Worktunes set going on 4 years now. I love them! Being able to listen to music or podcasts while I mow helps the day go by faster. Where I live is almost an hour from any radio station, AM or FM. I don't get a lot of stations, but what I do get comes in pretty good. I lost the radio tuning knob once and your great service department sent out another quickly. Now I need to contact you guys again and see if there are replacement ear cushions! Anyway, these are terrific and for the price, I don't think you can go wrong. I have beat these thing up and they keep on working!!

I was sent this product as a free sample. I tried them and they worked great. I found them easy to adjust and easy to use. These would be great for anyone while they cut their lawn or using power tools. It does block out a fair amount of noise. The ear muffs are comfortable and don't hurt your ears. They adjust to any size to fit anyone's needs. I found the FM stations to be clear I didn't try many AM stations much but they did work well also. The overall sound is great it may vary depending on where you live and reception quality but I was happy with my sample.

My New 3M WorkTunes Hearing Protecter - By far the Very Best pair I have ever had - really Love the Voice Assist features. Great fit with radio on it is pretty hard to hear anything else. :) Have a older plane ear muffs - they are totally junk compared to these !

I bought your head set last fall and I am not impressed. The radio reception is terrible as is the battery life. Worse, the clip holding one of the earpieces broke (see screenshot) after a fall of about 2' onto a wooden bench and now it is essentially useless.

I enjoy listening to radio as I'm working and the Worktunes fits the ticket.

bought these yesterday and tried them out last night and could not get them to work. I tried another set of batteries and they did not work either. I tested the batteries and they all tested good. I tried again and still no sound not even static. I play my smart phone through the speakers but the radio part of the head phones was still completely dead.

this seems to be a good hearing protector, having 0ne problem,the volume knob is exposed so constantly bumping it changing the volume, should have put it next to the station select knob, other than that it is ok.

This is my third set over 16 years. They work fantastic for both noise protection and radio quality.

Great turnaround time from order to receipt. Good job! Thanks

Works awesome this is my third pair.

Great at bringing in the FM stations I like to follow and reduces the noise when cutting the lawn. I'm happy!!

The FM radio quality is poor as it bleeds other stations on the same frequency CROSSTALK

Works great! Just wish the protection in ear muffs lasted longer

You will not get radio reception unless you are hanging off of the transmitter tower
