What's great about it: They are the strongest headphones brand i ever liked.
What's not so great: ???

"Well i already bought one of these and they broke because my dog ripped the wire out so i came to BB to buy a new ones and these are still my favs.

They are strong as i said in my other review and these are some really good headphones all you gotta do is take care of them and they would last really long and the sound would still be perfect.

What's great about it: sound, comfort and price
What's not so great: an ear goes out after long use

"I've had 3 of these, but overall it's worth it if you dont use it too much. I'm actually about to get another one cause mine just broke today, but I wish it would last a little bit longer. I think they should strengthen the cord towards the end by the plug, so the tiny things inside won't rip apart or something. I guess you could just add tape?"

What's great about it: Comfortable, sound is decent for price
What's not so great: Nothing so far, I just hope they don't blow out

"I can't set a rating for durability because I just bought it. I would say overall for the price this product is great. The bass lacks a little, but sound is pretty clear. No sound isolation or canceling like my other headphones, but they're really just for back up. I just don't want to turn my ipod all the way up because I'm scared they might blow. I got to say though for JVC, I'm impressed."

What's great about it: Awesome variety of colors, great price, decent sound quality, comfortable.
What's not so great: Ear buds cut out with excessive use.

"I use my ipod at least once or twice a day, and I've gone through two pairs of the Gummies in a year. I was charmed by the variety of colors, and the price, but after winding and unwinding the earphones around my ipod, the base of the chord was bent and the left or right earphone would cut out(It's happened both times). I would certainly recommend these to anyone who doesn't use their music player all the time, like I do."

What's great about it: The material (soft plastic-like/silicone) makes it so comfortable; for its price, it is actually very high quality
What's not so great: The sound quality lacks bass, and almost sounds scratchy; the cord frays easy because its secured poorly

"PROs:
1) The earbuds are so comfortable that you barely notice them while wearing them. It's not really that gummy like you'd expect from the reviews, but it is still extremely comfortable and wearable. Unlike many earbuds set at $10, they do not fall out often.
2) They are very good for the price tag. Also, there are some vibrant color choices - Example: I preferred black to match my iPod Touch.
3) The cord is perfect length, and has a little thing that you can move up along the headphones so they do not tangle.

CONs:
1) The first thing I noticed was that the sound quality was not very good. There was almost no bass, and it sounded tinny; then again it is all I expected from a product with such a low price tag. Plus, I have to admit the sound quality is still better than the standard Apple iPod earbuds.
2) The cord is connected to the jack exactly in the same manner as the Apple earbuds. There is almost no reinforcement around the cord, so if you wrap the cord around your music device like most people do, make sure you leave room between the cord and the jack. Otherwise, the edge of the cord tends to fray off and break.

dfgdfggg   03/25/2009
By rtgrfgdf from gdfgfdg, IL

What's great about it: df
What's not so great: dfgfdgfg

"Was looking for a decent, cheap pair of headphones and saw that these were rated 5 stars by everyone, so I bought them. I don't know how anybody rated them 5...The sound is average at best (but what I would expect from a $10 pair of headphones). I have to either constantly readjust them or put them back in my ear because they just simply do not stay. The cord is also fairly short, and if my ipod's in my pants pocket or even jacket pocket then it's kind of a stretch. I'm 6'2 so maybe that's why, but I don't know why they don't stay in your ear. I can't wait to return them, pony up an extra five or ten bucks and get a pair of sony's i had previously that were perfect. Stay away from these, you will be disappointed.""

feel good   03/23/2009
By Gibhunter from Bangor, Maine

What's great about it: STAY IN
What's not so great: dont fall out...

"These blow my ipod earbuds away. They sound better both bass and treble wise at higher volumes than ipod buds can handle. the rubberized coating keeps them in my ears like no other ear buds. That is the only reason I even went out looking for earbuds, the ipod ones just dont stay in. PERFECT, great price. Stock up, they are great presents in all their colors! Ive been wearing them for 3 hours straight and they dont hurt, that is a first!"

Absolutely horrible   02/13/2009
By Mike2727 from New York, NY

What's great about it: Sound is ok, ten bucks
What's not so great: Constantly falls out of ears, cord is too short.

I don't know how anybody rated them 5...The sound is average at best (but what I would expect from a $10 pair of headphones).

whenever i need new headphones, i get these...   02/03/2009
By Will2392 from Brooklyn, NY

What's great about it: different colors, reliable and cheap
What's not so great: if your rough with them, they will die quickly...

"i got through roughly 5 sets of headphones a year.

get this straight though, its not the headphones that die, its my fault.

its always either me chewing on the wire and not realize what im doing, or ill pull them out of my ears and let them hang, and ill manage to step on them, either crushing the earphone OR trying to pull it while my foot is still on it, thus ripping the cord from the earphone itself....or ill have it in my computer and ill get up to walk away and ill manage to crack the jack inside my computers headphone jack...im an idiot, i know.

but when im not rough on them, theyre great!

perfect sound

different color variations

and cheap.
