I had no great expectations since my reference headphones were the ones that came with my ipod and did not intend to spend much money on a new set. The reviews were positive so I figured they would be okay.
The Gumy name implies a soft, comfortable fit but that is not the case for my ears. Any shift or head movement and they move around and the volume and clarity drop off substantially. Even without a perfect fit the sound quality is decent but I cannot give them more than three stars because fit and comfort is so poor. I assume they fit other people quite well based on the other reviews.
What's great about it: price
What's not so great: fit and comfort

I returned these once I opened the package. I prefer the silicone tipped ear buds that go into your ear canal, this type is hard for me to wear. The packaging was not easy to see what type they were and once I opened them I returned them for a different style.

I bought these for running which in hindsite was not the best use for these. They are too loose in your ears for hard working out. But for the price the sound and comfort are great.

The only thing I did not like is the ear piece is too big for my ears.. Best feature 's are the ability to control the volume of the headset without having to touch my computer and the sound quality is excellent!! They are the best headphones I've purchased at such a low cost.
What's great about it: Excellent sound quality
What's not so great: ear piece is too large

As earbuds go, these are fine - very good sound quality for the price, but I use them only at the gym to listen to TV as I exercise. Have not tried them with higher-fidelity sound sources. My other earbuds (free from an airplane trip) were tinny by comparison. Not enough time to rate durability.
What's great about it: Comfort, sound quality (for my limited use)

These headphones work for about 3 months, then one or both sides stop playing. If you buy the $5 warranty, you can get a replacement at Best Buy. This has worked well for us.

I listen to podcasts every day at work and all in-the-ear headphones fall out eventually. This pair stays in and is very comfortable. As far as sound quality the treble is ok but there is little to no bass response.

What's not so great: bass sound

For the price the headphone has a pretty good sound. The only set back is over time the wire near the audio plug will develop a short(from continuous flexing) and one earpiece will lose sound. But what do you expect for the low price.
What's great about it: The comfort in the ear and the sound.
What's not so great: Wire especially by the plug is frail.
