Klein Tools 60532 Ear Muffs with Cap and Safety Helmet Hard Hat Attachment, 2...

TLDR: I bought these Klein hardhat ear muffs for my electrician brother and he loves them. Solid, not gimmicky build, good hearing protection, comfortable and well balanced despite being a bit large/heavy, and the flip out “inspector” mode is genuinely useful. Full Review: My brother is a second generation electrician, and he constantly receives weird, gimmicky tools as gifts from well meaning friends and family who don’t really know what his workday is like. You know the ones, cheap multi-tool wire snipper/strippers and every strange, super niche gadget you can imagine. So when I buy gifts for him, I try to find things he’ll genuinely get excited about and actually use. I truly hope Klein never runs out of ideas for hard hat accessories, because I have bought (and will probably keep buying) every single one of them. It started with their wide brim Class E KARBN hard hat, then the wide beam headlamp. After that, I couldn’t pass up a couple of the 56062 mini LED headlamps, which then led to the portable cooling fans. And now: these ear muffs. I bought them with confidence because Klein is a brand we know, trust, and use every day. The quality is excellent, and there’s nothing gimmicky about them. And honestly, there’s no better feeling than seeing my brother genuinely excited about a gift, because he knows it’s something he’ll appreciate and use daily. I also have peace of mind knowing they protect his hearing. It’s been a while since I purchased them, and he’s told me several times that he loves them. They’re a little large and add some weight, but they sit centered and balanced and he doesn’t feel like they pull his head back or cause neck strain. He also likes the “inspector” feature, where he can pull one ear muff out and it locks into place so he can hear what the inspector is mumbling (his words, not mine).

These earmuffs are amazing! They are designed for Klein brand hard hats however I use an MSA brand at work and they fit it just fine. The ear muffs are really comfortable against the head and preform the intended purpose of blocking out noise. I work in construction and am constantly around different types of engines and heavy equipment and these do a fantastic job of blocking out the harsh noise. They fit over the ear well enough that you can utilize in ear protection as well and they will not be bothered by the over ears. The standby feature is really nice for in between functions such as you are about to start up loud equipment but need to have a conversation with your team first, they pop off the ears really easily and pop back on just as easy. I did notice that pushing on the metal part is the easiest way to get them to click back in from stand by mode but it is not an inconvenience at all. being able to store them up on the hard hat when not in use is really nice since I do not always need to have them on but don't want the hassle of taking them off the hard hat and they swing out of the way well! I do have to state the obvious that they do add a little extra weight to the head and it takes a little to get used to however I adapted quickly and by the end of the day I didn't even notice the extra weight anymore. Over all I was very impressed with the product and am very happy with my purchase and would recommend them to anyone that wears a hard hat and needs to wear hearing protection that is convenient and effective!

A very good fit, and limits outside noise very well. I am very pleased with these.

Great ear protection, but gets brittle at the snap-on areas

Works good

Klein's helmets are great. Their safety glasses are great. Their hardhat accessories suck. Their mounting clips are cheap plastic crap that has broken repeatedly, finally the metal wire itself broke out after the plastic holding it in broke. I want to emphasise this is not ''oh, manufacturing flaw'' sort of stuff. They're poorly made and break easily after a few months. There's nothing wrong with the ones I have except who made them. Buy something else, this is a waste of money.

These work very good! But if I had to say something bad it would be that they add a lot of weight to hard had but that can be expected

Solid in what there for, terrible build quality, had them 2 months and they broke on a gas leak.

Cool item. A bit bulky though.

Chose these because they have a larger fit around ears so you can wear ear buds as well and listen to music

Happy. Good quality.

They work very well

the ear muffs work well with the Klein helmet, but beware if you want to remove it often from the helmet it broke the helmet mounting piece. The helmet is a little rear heavy when the ear muffs are stored in the up postion.
