It was easily broken and I lost my bike. Granted, this coating is probably more durable on the long run but with any coated cord it is stiffer, bunches and catches on itself and any surrounding furniture, and my cats LOVE chewing on that type of cord while not in use (the mesh snags their teeth and feels weird on their lips so they tried once and never came near it again, but it does slide effortlessly across the surrounding furniture if it does happen to brush against any when I turn to get up). She took it for a ride and came back smiling and declaring it, "extremely comfortable". Size fits much bigger. I was initially concerned about getting refurbished headphones but mine connected to Bluetooth perfectly, all of the buttons work, and there is no signs of physical wear on them, so Im really glad I saved $100 going refurbished. Es war eigentlich gut verpackt, nur bei Glas muss man manchmal eben damit rechnen. Other than that, its a really impressive speaker. Great slides for my son, true to size. As for the no tangle aspect, theyve been great so far. I returned to amazon and had to.
