Lobie™ customer reviews

August 12th, 2011, Reginald from San Francisco likes Lobies: I really enjoy the experience using the lobie earbuds!  Lobies are comfortable since they do not sit inside of the ear and the soft material used in its construction.  The design of the lobies also allows me to use them during my running workouts.  I was skeptical at first, but they work great for exercising.  Lastly, I love the ability to use almost any earbud on the lobies.  This is very cost effective for any person that goes through many earbuds or a person that can never get that perfect fit.  Thank you!

August 6th, 2011: WOW,I love them!  I have been looking for a solution for my earbuds.  I don't like to have anything in my ear, it causes pain.  I looked online and voila! I found Lobies.   They are perfect.  They fit my ears and I can adjust them.   They don't fall out while I'm running and are super comfortable.  My daughter likes them, too.

August 6th, 2011: I had a problem wearing regular ear buds because they would eventually hurt . They would also push whatever I had in my ear canal deeper into the ear canal. Making me very susceptible to ear infections. Now that I have my lobies, I don’t have to worry about what I’m putting in my ear. The lobies don’t enter the ear canal at all and are very comfortable. Thank you for a great product.

August 3rd, 2011: I love how I can now wear the original earbuds that came with my phone!  They are so comfortable and easy to put on!!!  I was afraid that since they didn't go into my ears that the sound would not be as good but that wasn't the case at all!!!  I LOVE LOBIES!!!!!

July 29th, 2011: I LOVE my lobies! I have tried everything under the sun to refrain from sticking oversized earbuds into my tiny ears. I happened upon Lobies by chance on a google search and I am so delighted. They are so comfortable, lightweight, and properly priced. I will be telling lots of my friends and family about this product.

July 25th, 2011: I purchased a pair of you lobies and i am very satisfied with my purchase. They are comfortable and easy to use. I don't like the way earbuds feel in my ears, and this is a great way to be ale to use use earbuds.

July 21st, 2011: This is EXACTLY what I was looking for!!! Not only are they super comfortable and sturdy, but they're stylish as well. What I enjoy the most about my Lobies, however, is that they prevent my earbuds from resting against my eardrums, which allows me to comfortably listen to music for hours to an end. Completely satisfied!

July 19th, 2011: I Love them!!! These work great for me, especially when  I listen for long periods of time (audiobooks). Earbuds hurt my ears instantly and Lobies are a great solution. I'm so glad I made this great purchase!!!

July 18th, 2011: So far I love my lobies!  They are soft and comfortable and make my ear buds usable.  The colors are fun.

July 17th, 2011: I really love my lobies. Just got them and I really am enjoying them.
The sound is so good and I never have to push those ear buds into my ears.

July 15th, 2011: I recieved my lobies yesterday and I love them.  I wear hearing aids and now I can listen to my Ipod without the ear buds falling off my ears.  They work great and are comfortable too.

June 27th, 2011: I just got my lobies and they are everything you said they were and more. When I wear them they are so light and even after shaking my head to test them they still stayed on. I will be replacing all my headsets with ear buds just so i can use my lobies. I will be proud to wear them on my walks just to show them off.

June 21st, 2011: I like the Lobies because they are soft, and work well with my eyeglasses.

June 16th, 2011: I Love them! I found you as a result of a Google search after a very irritating run where my stupid earbuds kept popping out.  I even tried TAPING them to my ears!  What a great invention!!  I just came back from a run using the Lobies and it kept my earbuds anchored comfortably in place.  Thank you SO much!!!

June 14th, 2011: I recieved my Black Lobies today and absolutley love them. I wore them at the gym and to cut my grass and they are great. I've never been able to keep my iPhone earbuds in my ears and now they stay great. Thank you.

June 12th, 2011: I received my MyLobies & they're great.

June 10th, 2011: I received my Lobies today, and I walked with them with my iPod earbuds.  I had pretty much given up on using my earbuds especially while I walk 2-3 miles.  The reason is that I can’t keep them in my ears, and therefore, I can’t hear my music.  Without the Lobies, the earbuds are worthless to me.  With the Lobies, I can now use the earbuds.  Thank you very much for enabling me to again use my earbuds.

May 21st, 2011: I used mylobies going grocery shopping. They were wonderful. Keeping the sound volume moderate I could still hear everything going on and listen to my music clearly. A call and text message came while listening to my iPod. The ear buds stayed easily and comfortably in place. No more ear buds falling out. The Lobie rests on my ear softly.

May 17th, 2011: I just received my new Lobies this afternoon and couldn't wait to try them out! WOW! They are so comfortable, and I can actually HEAR. I have an iPhone, and the ear buds are huge. If I wedge them into my ear canal they are painful, fall out when I move at all, and if I can keep them in, they pretty much close off my hearing. So forget that! These Lobies are terrific! Off to the gym!

May 3rd, 2011: I recently purchased two pair of Lobies for my wife and I to use while working out. I was tired of my ear buds falling out while working out and having to constantly adjust them and shove them deeper into my ear canal. They (Lobies) look different, but they fit great and the sound is incredible, much beter than sticking a small speaker into my ear. They are comfy and I have already had several other folks at the gym ask me what they are and where to buy them. Thanks for making such a cool product. Guess what all my friends are getting for Christmas!!!! FD

Best product ever, April 27th, 2011: I was looking for a remedy for ear buds falling out during movement, such as biking or walking,, or even doing chores around the house. I had about decided I needed to go with a new headset with behind the ear holders, or even a bluetooth setup.  There is no fidelity like standard ipod earbuds, but they just wouldn't stay in my ears if I moved around too much.

Then I stumbled upon the Lobie.com. Pop your ear buds into the soft Lobies and go run a marathon if you want. They are soft and not intrusive, very affordable, no charging and battery drain like with bluetooth headsets, no huge outlay of money for some other, since they are only 12 bucks a pair and come in many different colors.  Thanks MyLobie for a great product that actually does what it claims to do. Thank you Lobie for a fine product that actually solves problems.

Great Over Ear Solution. I hate jamming earbuds into my ear -- they don't fit, they pop out and they hurt. I googled over ear option, found the Lobie, reasonable price plus free shipping and think they are a practical solution. Trying them on a plane today so we'll see how they work with engine noise, but so far, so goo

What I Needed. I HATE ear buds. I can never get them easily to fit into my ears. Even after I finally get them on, they fall out. NOT with "Lobies"! They look huge, BUT... once you get them on, it is like they are not there.

These work great! Amazingly comfortable! . This product is great! My Lobies eliminated the pain I get from wearing my earbuds. They are amazingly comfortable and they fit every pair of earbuds I own. Great purchase.

I received my Lobies and really love them. August 26, 2010: I will tell all of my friends about them, they are a great invention. Thank you again for your excellent customer service, I am very appreciative. By mshene

Works great with my HP laptop earbuds!!, August 12, 2010

Unbelievably comfortable, July 2nd, 2010: Happy 4th of July everyone. For those of you who struggle to keep the ear buds on ipods in your ears (and I know many people do), take a look at http://www.mylobie.com/ I just bought a pair and love them. I have two pair if anyone wants to try them out. They may not be the latest in fashion accessories, but they are so unbelievably comfortable and only $12 with no shipping fee.

The product was perfect., May 14, 2010

Great product for little ears, March 2, 2010: By Jennifer Settergren "MomofGirls"
This topic has been on my mind for recently. My kids don't use headphones very often, but when they do I worry about how loud it is in their ears. Most ear buds are too big for them. They sometimes complain that they make their ears hurt.
We will be heading to Florida for Spring Break and that means Nintendo DS and Ipods on the plane. I set out on a better alternative.
They are soft, moldable for each kid, and regular ear buds go into them. I think that the they are going to like them. I bought the pink and purple glitter ones for the girls.
Both of my kids are using them as we speak and love them! Highly Recommend!

Worth it!, December 25, 2009: By revcamilla

"I have always had problems with the earbuds that come with the ipods and other devices because they were very uncomfortable and did not fit my ears well. MyLobies solve all those issues. They are very comfortable (I even fell asleep in them one night!) Sound quality is good for everyday listening. It is easy to hear your music over the outside noises, but those noises aren't completely blocked which is good if you need to be aware of your surroundings (like when out walking the dog or listening for the kids). I plan to buy another pair for my husband!"

Love my Lobies, December 9, 2009: By Beth Olson (Michigan, USA)

"I recently bought an iPod but soon learned the earbuds did not stay in my ears and were uncomfortable. I looked into solutions for this problem online. My search brought me to Lobies website. I thought I would give them a try. They are remarkably light weight and even though they look bulky, I didn't find them to be so. They hold my ear buds right where they need to be without them falling out of my ears even when moving about. I love them. Great idea!"

LOBIE EARBUDS - WEAR THEM FOR A DAY AND YOU WILL LOVE THEM!, November 30, 2009: By C. Meloche

"I first thought the Lobie was too bulky, so I cut one of the the sides in half and wore both sides for a day. At the end of the day both sides were equally comfortable and I didn't even know I had them on. I don't like jamming the earbud inside the ear, so these are perfect. I now wear them everytime I use my Ipod. I can hear the amazing sound from my Ipod earbuds and still pickup conversation if someone speaks to me. Great product. I highly recommend it!"

It works!, September 1, 2009: By Robert A. Goldstone "drbobgold" (Glen Rock, NJ USA)

"The earbuds from my new IPhone 3GS would fall out with the slightest movement of my head. I tried in-ear adapters, but they didn't help. The Lobies are comfortable, stay in place, and the sound from the phone through the buds is excellent. I am very happy with the product and intend to buy some spares for my computer and for airline travel."

These covers are awesome!, January 26, 2009: By Sami W. Moran (Austin, TX)

"I've tried more earbuds than I care to count and can't wear them for any length of time because they are so painful. I ran across the Lobie while searching online (again) for some kind of earbud that I can tolerate because I listen to a lot of audiobooks. I ordered a pair of Lobies, and they work great!

When used with the Lobie, earbuds sit gently on top of the opening of the ear --- they don't fit INTO the ear at all --- and loop over the ear similar to eyeglasses. On me (adult female), the Lobies go all the way around my ear and end about even with the bottom of my earlobe. I haven't tried them with bulky earrings, but they work fine with simple stud earrings.

Lobies are very flexible, so they should be comfortable for both kids and adults."

These are the best!!!, June 13, 2008: By Mark Boley (Melbourne, Australia)

"I have an HTC Tytn which i regularly use as both my phone and my mp3 player. You can buy comfortable headsets for music players, but you cannot buy any comfortable headsets with microphones for use as both a handsfree for your phone and a headset for stereo music playing. The only option (so far) is the big bluetooth headphones which need separate chargeing and are large to carry around - or earbuds... and I hate earbuds. We tried surgery to meld a handsfree to a headset - we weren't clever enough to make it work. So we were very hopeful when we found the lobie advertised. Now it's here and in use and I am extremely pleased. It's comfortable, it's functional and it's not that hard on the eyes (I got the clear). I highly recommend this product to anyone who wants to make their handsfree earbuds as comfortable to use as a high priced over the ear stereo headset. Thanks Lobie!"

Work great for me!!!, May 14, 2008: By Jenny

"These work great for me, especially when listening for long periods of time. Earbuds hurt my ears after a while and Lobies are a great solution. Great purchase!!!"

"Oh my gosh...these things are absolutely amazing! For the first time, ever, I can use my earbuds and they even enable me to use them in my cellphone earbuds for hands-free talking while cooking dinner and driving or walking the dogs. They are so comfortable my daugher has to remind me to take them off and I just love the colors available. For anyone with issues keeping those crazy earbuds in their ears these are a must-have. Thanks for a great product."

"I just received my first pair of Lobies and I love them! Its an amazing product, and exactly what I've been looking for since I wear hearing aids...it's truly exciting for me to have these! I will be ordering another pair. I'm a big fan!"

"I do love them particularly at work where I don't have to take them off just to have a conversation and can still hear some of what is going on around me if I choose to. I recently ran with them for the first time and was really surprised how well the stay on."

"I really like MyLobies. It is a rare product that has two very practical solutions in one...Holding your earbuds in place during movement & keeping the earbuds a safe listening distance from your ear canal. I am so happy I can listen to my music AND workout. I had trouble even finding stereo headsets that hung on my ear AND were compatible w/ my phone. I look forward to receiving another pair of Pink Lobies for my friend. She needs them! And, I will continue to spread the word!! "

"I really dig MyLobies I recently purchased. They are the exact solution I was looking for & they work great. After loading a decent amount of music on my phone, I realized I couldn't use it to workout because my earbuds kept popping out while running, biking, etc. I also had trouble finding stereo headsets that hung on my ear AND were compatible w/ my phone. I went online to search for a solution & MyLobie.com came up and I am very happy. It was easy to order. Even though I live in the Pacific Northwest, they arrived in a timely fashion. Thank You very much!"

Hearing Aid Compatible Headset - "I have been looking for YEARS for headphones or anything that were compatible with my hearing aids, and inexpensive Lobies made the iPod earbuds into exactly what I needed all along. I've used Lobies in the car as well, and they hold the earbuds so perfectly against my hearing aids that the music comes through loud and clear. I really am one of your biggest fans."

"I bought my wife some Lobies last year for Christmas and she loves wearing them around the house when she's cleaning. I'd like to get a pair so the music won't be so loud like it is with in ear buds."

"I really love my Lobies. They are very comfortable, and never fall out of my ears when I'm working out at the gym. Thank you for such a great product!"

"LOVE my lobies! I wear them when running and working out and my earbuds never fall off like they used to."

"The lobies are fabulous! I use them for running - very effective. I think that they are a great alternative to head phones. "

"They are so comfortable I forget I am wearing them."

"Love the Lobie, I thought I would never be able to use my earbuds, they wouldn't stay in my ears. The Lobie kept the earbuds perfectly secure in my ears,and they are so comfortable I fell asleep with them on. I have different earbuds for different devices, I wish I had a pair of Lobies for every device."

"I like to wear them while playing video games. I also like to go sleep listening to music and Lobies feel good when I lay my head on my pillow."

"They are extremely comfortable."

"They are very light weight."

"They are awesome and fit comfortably."

"I think that Lobies are a clever solution to earbuds falling out. They'd be really great for jogging & exercise."

"It is definitely a new experience. My ears are not throbbing after I use them."

"They are very comfortable and they do not interfere with my glasses."

"Lobie ROCKS!"
