Regardless, I would still buy another if needed. Wasnt so keen on it Im not sure what the high priced Apple buds can do that these cant, but so far they are comfortable and the sound is better than I expected. If I would have purchased 7-8 Im scared they would have been too big. Im glad i finally got it. ) Overall, its still an ok fit, and very happy with this Pediped. I just wasnt expecting to have to screw the hooks on, it does come with little spots marked where you are supposed to attach the hooks. Containers hard to remove I am 6 and 190Lb. Very strange for a US-based company.
