What to do if the custom earplug is not comfortable?

Even an earplug made to measure does not always feel right from the first moment. Here is what is worth doing in that case. We come to your home or workplace, take an impression, and the earplugs are sent to you by post.

In short: first check simple things yourself: that the earplug is on the right side, that you inserted it as explained, and that it is the earplug for the right use. Then tell us what exactly bothers you, when it happens, and which earplug you ordered and when. Options for adjustment and refitting are checked case by case, and we do not promise a repair or replacement in advance.

Simple checks you can do yourself

  • Is the earplug on the right side? Sometimes the right and left earplugs get swapped by mistake.
  • Did you insert it according to the explanation you received? Try again according to the explanation.
  • Is it the earplug for the right use? If you ordered several types of earplugs, check that you took the right one.

What is worth telling us when you get in touch

  • What exactly bothers you. The earplug moves, comes out, or does not feel right.
  • When it happens. When moving, sleeping, swimming or at work.
  • Which earplug you ordered, and when.

Every detail like this helps us look into your case.
