Have only used it for about 10hrs. flying a restored Stinson L-5 with a 190 Lyc. (a loud a/c inside) but so far, I'm very satisfied with the performance of the headset.

Great value. Sound quality is perfectly adequate. Has worked flawlessly so far. Makes a great spare/passenger head set.
Cons
Certainly not as comfortable as my David Clark set, given that the ear peices are made from fairly stiff foam, but really not uncomfortable by any means.

Picked up a pair for the rare occasion that I have a backseat passenger. Didn't want to spend a lot of money. Very impressed, these are good enough that I would consider them for myself if I was looking for a replacement right now! Compare quite favorably to units costing twice as much!

Comfortable and LIGHT as advertised. Surpassed my expectations as an entry level headset.
Cons
Felt a bit loose at times, needs to be on the exact right way in order for noise cancelling to work most effectively. Earpieces maybe a little too small.
General Comments
Good for a starter set, but that's what it is. It exceeded my expectations but if you're looking for something more than starter quality, go up a level.

I'm a student pilot and wanted a good inexpensive headset. This seems to fit the bill. No problems noted. Comfortable to wear, good clarity with both receive and transmit.
