Protect your hearing and listen to music at the same time. Whether you are at the job site, in the workshop, or mowing the lawn, you may be putting your hearing at risk, or at the very least putting up with irritating noise. Regular earplugs are uncomfortable and prevent you from listening to music while you work. WorkTunes' hearing protectors offer a high level of hearing defense as well as let you replace the irritating noise with your favorite AM or FM radio station. And while many stereo headsets have volume levels that can damage hearing, this set has a maximum volume level of 85 decibels, lower than the threshold of danger. ... Read more

Money Well Spent
I love my Worktunes hearing protectors! I use mine while woodworking and commercial mowing. If a radio station is static-filled I would rather listen to a loud motor. My headphones have delivered high quality sound for both music and talk stations. The hours fly by when I have them on. I highly recommend them.

Great product, but not perfect
I originally became interested in these ear muffs for my wood shop after seeing nearly every landscaper in the world wearing them. Pros - Excellent noise protection, good sound, very comfortable, easy to use, great battery life, good construction. Cons - No markings on radio dial, reception could be a tad bit better.

As for the cons, the lack of markings actually isn't that big of a deal after a few minutes of use. You simply start at one end of the dial and finding your favorite stations becomes easy. I quickly developed a feel for how far to turn the dial to my favorite AM or FM stations. Another reviewer mentioned that these muffs don't receive FM stereo. They certainly do, but only if the station is strong enough and tuned in.

My other ear protection setup is a Sangean AM/FM/TV/Weather pocket radio or a scanner, and a $... set of professional grade David Clark earmuffs with speakers. Keeping in mind that this is about a $... setup, I still prefer the DC muffs for race tracks. However, the cord can get in the way while working in the shop or in the yard, and the radio needs to go somewhere. The Peltor does an excellent job, considering it's 1/3 of the price. As for blocking external noise, the Peltor muffs are as good as the David Clark units.

Overall this unit is comfortable enough for all-day use, I now wear them while mowing and snowblowing, as well as in the shop. I am happy enough with mine that I bought a pair for my father-in law. Over the six months I've had mine, they've been dropped, wet, frozen and heated, and they have held up well. We use non-radio equipped Peltor muffs where I work, they have proven to be very durable over the years.

great tunes
I purchased a set of worktunes while my wife thought I was crazy. But after using them one time she has now decided we need another set for her. Only complaint it is tuning dial very touchy. The earmuffs work very good for hearing protection.

Peltor Work Tunes 22 (not 09545)
I just recieved my PELTOR WORK TUNES 22 (not the 90545 model). The two models most likely have the same inside components. I selected the Tunes 22 because they are a little more compact. I do residential mowing with a 52" SCAG and these radio headphones work great. I was VERY skepticle before the purchase. After mowing, weed wacking and using a back-pack blower for several hours, I totally recommend this brand to anyone considering these. Fathers Day is right around the corner...A MUST for anyone who needs ear protection and enjoys music while you work!

These are just great
If you are looking to protect your hearing, theses are for you.
I could hear people talking but could not hear the tractor. I tend to play my music loud but these would prevent that. The volume is fine for my needs. Sometime I cut my lawn for 3 to 4 hours( 2 acres) and I use to be tired when I was done. I found out it was the noise that was making me tired. All I can say is buy them NOW!!!! ... Read more

If you work on your knees all day, you know how critical it is to find a pair of knee pads that not only protect your knees but also feel comfortable while doing so. Bucket Boss Air-Gel knee pads do both effectively. Designed to work like a running shoe for the knee, the Air-Gel conforms to the contours of the knee to reduce pressure and help prevent injury. A special lining moves sweat away from the skin for added comfort, while the straps curve away from the back of the knee to eliminate bunching and binding. Even after a long day's work, the result is more comfortable knees. --Carl Thress ... Read more

• Super-resilient Air-Gel padding conforms to knee

Disappointing
It is hard to avoid the conclusion that the people who designed these knee pads never wear knee pads. They are very disappointing, although it would be very simple to make them better. The problem is that the curve of the knee pad is very shallow, and the gel pack is a single pack, not molded to the shape of a knee. Consequently, the knee rolls around on the pad which is almost as hard on the knee as not wearing pads. If the gel pack were shaped so as to cup the knee snugly, they would be fine. As it is, they are little better than a simple pair of pads that I bought for $9.00 in the garden store.

Gift for Dad who has almost everything
My Dad went into landscaping late in life and it's a job he loves. He also loves all the toys that go with it. Minus the knee pads he could never find a pair that stayed up or in place.
Or that the rocks didn't pierce the gel and for that part his knees. Every day he uses his knee pads theres a call on my machine how much he loves them. They're truly a wonderful product if they can withstand the torment of my dad. He uses them on cement to gravel. He even uses them to weed in to ease the pressure on his knees. There a great product. Sue Bolis

Not for me
Contrary to the other reviews I couldn't use these. I am used to well contoured foam filled knee pads that stay put. I was looking forward to the ultimate with the new gel backing. Sadly the gel is put in as simple pillows and sewn around the edges. This fills what appears to be a very well made and contoured shell with mounds of gell, which I kept rolling off of, with my knees ending up to the side on the sewn seams. I tried everything but couldn't correct this. Since I can't work without pads [all day] I went back to the old ones and sent the gel pads back. Reluctantly. It wouldn't take much to contour the gel to solve this and they would be wonderful. I noticed at least one of the other reviewers mentioned slipping off to the side also. Great idea, not well engineered

excellent product
Very comfortable. Can work for hours on concrete floor and not have any pain. Highly recommended.

Best I've seen yet
I normally spend one or two days a week installing Pergo flooring and have been desperately looking for knee pads that wouldn't do 3 things:

1. Make my legs sweat like crazy 2. Pull the hair out of the back of my knees 3. Fall half way down my shins every other minute

These knee pads fit the profile perfectly. After a 10 hour installation, I only had to adjust the pads twice. Both times they shifted to the side. The only knock I have: The pads are a little too hard and slide a bit on the Pergo. They could use more grip for leverage. Otherwise, they were perfect "off-the-shelf" kneepads for the price. ...

Outstanding in noise reduction and more
Put these on and turn on your shop vac and you will be amazed how much noise reduction these earmuffs provides. In addition, the ear pieces are very soft and extremely comfortable. Wear them to be near any machinery or mowing your lawn and your ears will thank you.

WHAT? I can't hear you! Oh, yeah, I can't hear ANYTHING!
The Peltor H10A Hearing Protector ear muffs really do the job! I ordered them to help eliminate the annoying whine of my computer tower. You know the kind of sound...very slight, but so high-pitched it goes straight to your ear drums and drills a hole til you can't STAND it anymore!! Why am I SHOUTING!? Well, you can see how I had to do something to preserve my sanity.

I received the Peltor set and man, oh man, does it eliminate sound!! What pc whine? What pc! This headset completely elimates those little sounds that drive you crazy. I recommend it for those who have noisy neighbors or roommates, barking dogs, drippy faucets, etc. It is amazing. Loud noises can still be heard, so the headset does not interfere with normal life and is not a safety hazard. They are comfortable on the ears, are fairly lightweight, and fit very(!) snugly.

If you can't concentrate due to small, annoying noises, you would probably benefit from using this headset. The price is very reasonable, considering the benefits.

Excellent Hearing Protection
These earmuffs are extremely comfortable. They are fully adjustable and I even can wear them over a baseball cap. You won't believe how quiet it is with these on. My air compressor is the loudest in my shop. With these on it is only a whisper.

I order the best because I wanted to want to use them. I am very satisfied. ... Read more

Cleverly called the Forearm Forklift, these handy adjustable lifting straps make carrying heavy and hard-to-handle furniture and appliances remarkably easy. Using the Forearm Forklift, two people can carry large, heavy objects at a low center of gravity, only inches off the ground. As a result, you don't have to bend way down to pick up the object, and you don't have to stoop awkwardly to clear doorways. The Forearm Forklift also helps you move objects over sensitive floors--such as wood, vinyl, or tile--without the same risk of causing scuffs or damage. ... Read more

• They're the first and only moving tool ever to be OSHA accepted
• Make moving heavy items easier

• These patented moving straps are adjustable to carry any size furnishings

BAD
This ad is false. This is not the only moving system to be OSHA accepted. I tried the product and it was absolutely horrible. It made my arms start to tingle like they were falling asleep.

The Forearm Forklift was felt extremely dangerous on stairs. This product is just plain bad and claims to be much more then it is. Don't Buy It!!!!

Strong, secure and fast
We bought these to help deliver furniture at my store. They're great for all of our inventory, even the super heavy stuff. In fact, they make it feel lighter. ???
FYI-for furnishings with legs, we just put them underneath. But, for the flat bottomed pieces we cross the straps once underneath and we've never had them slip out. They're even good on stairs.
Not only do they keep our dollies off our cust.'s floors, but they also work to get in and out faster. Use them if you can. I recommend them cause they work!

Forearm forklift helped in a jam
Not to long ago I moved into a new home. I used the forearm forklift many times. I found it was ideal for moving big items, for example my 65" projection tv, which weighs roughly 350lbs. Without the forearm forklift it took 4 men to move, with the forearm forklift it took 2! The only downside to this product is using it to go up or downstairs with big items. It is not easy almost scary, I found it to be safer to not use the straps then pick them up after the steps.

Dad and brother to the rescue
I just graduated from UNLV and had tons of heavy, rustic furniture that I had accumulated over 5 1/2 years. My Dad's a little older, but my brother told him about these straps he bought here a while back apparently. Since they helped me move this summer my Dad has been telling all of my uncles. HOW COME IT MADE IT SOOOO EASY FOR THEM? At one point they even let my no exercising self carry around my huge armoire.
Guess what Dad's getting from X-Mas? I can't wait till he opens them.
By the way, my bro actually works as a flooring guy and says he uses them everyday or so. How cool! I recommend them.

Limited uses, but works great for large, heavy items
A bit overpriced...but handy. Used these for my husband and me to carry a thick queen-sized mattress and box springs up 2 steep flights of twisting stairs on a recent move. Usually I'm a wimp when it comes to carrying heavy, unwieldy things, but was able to be of real help with this item - made it easy and maneuverable. Can't figure out where to get them, but I wish I had the "X" carrying strap that the manufacturer describes in their package, however, since that seems very necessary to use this to carry smaller items without legs (like bookcases) without having the straps slip off. ...

WorkTune Radio makes mowing less of a chore
As I've been getting older, now 36, I am beginning to notice that noises bother the heck out of me more. This year the noise of my riding lawnmower was driving me insane as allergies are extremely bad this year as well. I asked my wife to buy this for me for father's day. It works great, I no longer am bothered by the noise of the riding mower or push mower. The only complaint is that the tuning knob is to small and that it is hard to fine tune in a station. Also, once a station is tuned in, it gradually fades out, and you have to retune. But this is better than nothing. And hopefully, I am saving my hearing with its usage.

Delightful entertainment
I am a residential builder working solo. My problem is that the construction site had become an isolated cultural vacuum. I see walkers/joggers with light weight headsets but could not find them in retail. I have tried standard headphones but the tether is not appropriate for a work environment. I recently got the AOSafety labeled Pelter Worktunes (Model 22, not 90545). This definitely solves the original problem and makes the day much more enjoyable. The phones are reasonably light weight and seem to be constructed well of durable materials. Audio level does not crank up very loud, but is acceptable and safe. Other observation is that, since they are worn continuously, sweat and heat is a slight problem. My negative impression is with the tuning. I am amazed that we can still buy a radio with analog tuning control. This is sensitive and imprecise. Please give me an up/down button to lock in the stations. And one picky point...it isn't clear which side is left and right. Even the merchandising photos aren't consistent. My overall impression is positive. The product is a worthwhile purchase. ...

Best darned particulate respirator around
This is the first "woodworker's" or nuisance dust mask that I've been able to wear for more than 5 minutes without wanting to tear it off, throw it to the ground, stomp on it, douse it with gasoline, and set a match to it.
The rubber mask seals completely around my face, even against my beard, without being so tight as to cut off circulation to my brain. There are no air leaks fogging up my safety glasses. The dual exhalation valves really make the mask more comfortable for extended wear.

Add to all this the industry-standard round filter elements and this mask just can't be beat. ... Read more

Soft but knees go to side
The concept of Gel in kneepads is good but something must be done about the design so that my knees do not move to the side. Basically no matter what I do, my knees always end up on the side of the pads because of the hard face. What needs to happen is like the older foam type pads. Your knees must be cushioned but also allow the pad to compress under your weight so that your knees do not rotate to the sides. Basically, you use these with your knees never in the middle unless you keep your weight perfectly centered over your knees (legs have to be together). Obviously, you could not work like this.

can't keep them on
these pads may be fine for stationary work but will not stay on when you move

On hands and knees all day.
I am a tile setter by trade and spend on an average of six hours a day on my knees. As any tile setter out there would know, COMFORT is a big priority and these knee pads are very comfortable!! After my first full day in them my knees felt great! The only problem with them is that there seems to be almost too much padding as the cap of the kneepad seemed to turn sideways as I worked. Not alot that it was a problem and certainly not enough to be a nuisance. Anyways I would definately buy them again and would recommend them to any tradesman that spends a good part of there day on their knees!!!

Good, but not for everything.
I use kneepads for many different tasks, from polishing the pickup wheels (parked on gravel), to gardening in loose dirt. Almost all the pads I've tried will provide adequate cushioning.

I have two criteria that I use for assessing kneepads: comfort and security. By security, I mean staying attached where they are supposed to. The Nailers have a lip at the top that catches your kneecap as you stand and walk. They also use only one strap, rather than two. It seems that the upper strap on most pads pulls the kneepad down your leg when you stand. The Nailers don't tend to slip as much as many others I've tried. They still leave a little to be desired in that area, though. I'm not sure that anyone has yet built a kneepad that stays put reliably.

The gel provides great comfort, but the hard cap is a bit wobbly on uneven hard surfaces, such as a ribbed pickup bed. Like most thick pads, they cause my legs to sweat under the pads. That's to be expected, but I wish it didn't happen.

All in all, these are very nice pads for a reasonable price. I'd buy them again.

Gel kneepad
found the pad really comfortable to walk in as well as when working on my knees. My old 2 strap pad hurt when I was in any position the single strap seems to help make the pad more comfortable. Lots of cushion that seems to keep its shape over time. I would buy it again. well made. ... Read more

Nice Unit, Poor Sound
Well made, comfortable and attractive. Good protection from outside noise. The sound quality is disappointingly poor. FM broadcast voice sounds muffled and hard to understand. The sensitivity to pick up all but the strongest FM stations is lacking. Returned as unsatisfactory.

Not too good for the hard of hearing
This is a well built product, but the treble roll-off of the radio is severe and makes for very muffled listening for those of us who already have some high frequency hearing loss. Otherwise, the noise protection is quite good and the radio is sensitive in both AM and FM ranges. Tuning is a bit ackward and it could use digital tuning, or at least a rough frequency indicator on the tuning knob. ... Read more
