Customer Reviews

If you buys these, get the product replacement insurance, and keep checking the buds. They're like little critters that will just want to get away from you. I had the same customer support response as Quandry when I reported that the earbud 'cushions' or buds fall off the Brookstone Sound Isolating Earbuds (with retractable cord). The telephone customer service operator was polite, but I was basically told that it was my problem I had not kept my receipt--my credit card statement was not enough 'evidence' of purchase. Brookstone's online customer support had not responded to my complaint after almost a week (hence my call). I too made my purchase at an airport, but at a Brookstone store. I purchased one set for myself and one as a gift. Unlike Quandry, I had very little problem with the cable (there were a couple of times the retraction didn't work properly but I got the hang of it and it worked well after that), and really liked the earphones. I made the purchase because, as a Brookstone customer for some years, I trusted the Brookstone name. In fact, I purchased another set as a gift in less than a week after buying my own set. But the product has a serious design flaw with the earbud 'cushion'. The extra sets that come with the earphones are different sized, and they all also fell off. The people for whom I purchased the sets as gifts have had the same problem. They each have one more set of the earphone 'cushions' or buds left, but at the largest size that does not really fit properly. For myself, I now have a useless set of earphones that cost $35 and which gave me less than two months' use. It's a pity, because the retractable cable is great for travel, and the sound was good.

I really liked the design and how these work....when they actually worked. I have owned 3 pairs of these things, and each time, within a matter of months they stopped working. Every time a wiring issue occurred which cause one or both sides of the earbuds to stop working. I'm finally giving up and getting a different brand of earbuds...these are simply unreliable. Thanks for the waste of over $100, Brookstone. I'll see if they similar $15 pair I just bought work any better.
