“15 plus years and 3 pair later”

3/6/17

The company is great to work with. The reason I have 3 pair I lost a pair then found them after I replaced them( now they have service plans to help with that) and just recently up graded again. I see a couple of guys that have had trouble and I don't get it! Battery's are very inconsistent. 10 boxes all is good the next box 3 will be bad brand new and 7 will be fine. You can pay 3 times the money for less!

“Don't expect to get anytime soon”

Ordered 3 sets of GS Extreme hearing protection for myself and family members over a month and a half ago. The only thing this company does quickly is take your money. Every time I call and finally get ahold of someone I'm told they'll be there next week. Now I find from other reviewers they're not that great anyway. Save your time and money, go elsewhere for your hearing protection needs.

Terrible company to do business with. They more than doubled the quoted lead time, and then the plugs did not fit me correctly. They made my ears ache after a short period of time. Months later, I was finally able to get a refund, but I was out $200 because of a 10% restocking fee, there was nothing I could do to get that money back. Very very frustrated working with them, will never do business with them again, and we'll make sure that no one I know ever buys from them

I'm going to make the short and sweet.
Bought the best pair they made at NWTF. Got them in the mail 4 weeks later than they were suppose to arrive. After I got them I'm pretty sure they didn't design them for my heating needs as I had trouble with them from day one. So I made three attempts to get help with them with no response. So I packed them up and sent them back asking for a refund. Guess what I had a response immediately. All they wanted to do was say how I had not tried to reach them and that the 30 day return policy had come and gone. I tried to be reasonable but they had no interest in working with me. All they wanted to do was blame me and all but said I was out of luck. Because they wouldn't respond I ended up going a different direction with a local company which I recommend you all to do. This company will not stand behind their product. If you look hard you will find many reviews just like mine. Wish I had done my homework.

I ordered a custom set of hearing protection. They were supposed to cut through background noise at work and protect my hearing on the gun range. I emailed customer service when I received the product (I interpreted the instructions incorrectly), and it took a week to get a reply.
I was told to ship them back and they would reprogram the devices. I got them back and one does not work at all now.
I called customer service and was told I'd get a call from the "expert", but apparently customer service doesn't have the same sense of urgency that I do.
Please save yourself $$$ and frustration and stay away from SportEar products.

Bought a set of ghost strike hearing protection and they wouldnt even last 3 months of hunting. I had them a few years and every year i had issues, when ever i got them back from repairs they either sound fake, or the volume was to low, sometimes they have this faint machine gun noise going all the time, batteries sometimes wouldnt make it a half a day. One time i had issuse they sent me a new ghost strike to use till mine got fixed and it even stopped working after a few weeks. Each time u send them in they charge u 69 dollars so after i had almost 700 dollars into them i said im going back to walkers game ear they seam to last longer with alot less issues. I wouldnt recomend buying these i can tell u for sure they have not been feild tested. There reveiws that i saw online i can say r made up. I tested these in cold weather and warm weather and i garrentee u these are not the ones for hunting unless u carry regular ear plugs along for backup,
