I bought this item as a new headset, used primarily for gaming on my laptop. It is by far the most comfortable headset I have ever worn. I gamed for hours and did not get any discomfort from wearing them. They are non-intrusive to to wear and I often forgot that I was wearing them. The sound is really good considering the type of headphones, but it could have a little more bass capability.
The microphone boom is located well and is not in my peripheral vision. They are completely adjustable and were easy to get positioned correctly. The back strap does not actually support the headphones, which was nice since it does not rest on the back of my neck like other sets do.
Another nice feature is the carrying case which comes with the product. I travel frequently and have a bag full of things. Previous headsets (even "laptop" headsets) have only had a way of folding up, but not a protective case. The case is rugged and I think will stand up to the pounding in my bag.
