Logitech Noise-Canceling Headphones Review

I received these as a gift back in November 2007; he got them through TigerDirect. I used them daily at work, an office setting, until, like others, the left swivel attachment broke. As a temporary fix I taped them until it just got on my nerves. The packing slip said that the 1 year replacement was for AFTER the manufacturer's warranty was up; doing my research on Logitech I saw that that period was for 2 years. So I was golden, right? WRONG. I called Logitech and simply because I removed a STUPID little round sticker with a P and three numbers on it from the actual headphones, it voids the warranty. NOWHERE could I find anything telling me NOT to remove this stupid little sticker. And besides, how long would something like that really be expected to last, anyhow?!I'm really fed up with Logitech. Don't give them your money. (Indeed, TigerDirect cannot replace them until November 2009; called them to be sure)

Good sound and features, but poor construction -

Like others, I had the issue with these breaking at the ear piece swivel. This is from normal (light) usage. Having only used them on a few plane trips over the course of 6 months. These headphones are discontinued. So all Logitech could do is offer me a refund.
I also was beginning to have an issue with the sound going in and out on the right side prior to the breakage described above. Too bad about the poor construction.
The sounds was good, and nice features while they worked (which was not long). The noise canceling worked well to reduce airplane noise and passenger chatter. The ability to work as normal headphones once the battery is dead, which is a nice bonus. The case is nice as well, which has pockets for the (enclosed) 2-prong airplane jack adapter, and even a pocket for an iPod. I really did like these headphones, too bad they did not last.

I purchased two sets of these headphones, one for me and one for my wife. One set arrived dead on arrival due to a broken left earpiece. Other reviews commented on earpieces breaking, but I thought how flimsy could they be? Pretty flimsy. You have to be very careful rotating the earpieces. Don't pull on the earpiece when trying to lengthen or shorten the head band to adjust the fit to your head. You're liable to break the swiveling connection on the earpiece. Apart from that weak point, the headset seems nicely constructed, comes in a very nice carrying case that protects them when not in use. They are comfortable to wear. The noise suppression is pretty good. It doesn't shut out all external noise, but it does reduce the volume considerably. The sound quality is fine to my ear. It is heavy on the bass side, but I like that. It sounds deep and rich. For the price, it is certainly a good deal compaired to Bose. Just wish those earpiece connections weren't so fragile.

I've been enjoying these headsets for a couple of months. The sound quality is very good the battery lasts a long time and the thoughtful carrying case is perfect for my complete traveling audio needs. They seem to perform almost as well as my *very* expensive headsets I use when flying.
One day an ear piece broke off somehow (I don't know how) and on examination, I found that the swiveling attachment point is a very small and lightly built piece of hollow plastic trough which the wires pass. I glued it all back together and the earphones still work well, however they will no longer fit in that nifty case. Too bad.

I had these for 6 months and they worked well BUT, the right speaker broke off. Since it was Logitech, I figured they'd stand behind their product but, after several emails it was sorta resolved. This is the feed back I got from Logitech's help desk...
"I have been informed by the Warranty/Replacement Department that the Noise Cancelling Headphones are refund only."
So BE CAREFUL if they break on you, you'll be paying shipping costs again.
