Greater than one weekIve owned a pair of Porta Pros since 1988. I have used the Koss lifetime warranty several times in that period, and every time its been just fine. On one pair I had even soldered on my own replacement plug, and I called Koss to make sure they would still be covered. The man on the phone said, You could chop them up into a million pieces and mail the pieces to us in a bag, and wed still send you a replacement set. Now thats customer service!

> 3 daySounds great, very clear, very comfortable. Love the retro look, and its quite compact. Really like the clasp which holds it together when you fold it up. 1 star off because I wish the provided case was sturdier. The Portapro is made out of aluminum and plastic and it really needs a hard shell case if anyone wanted to throw it into their bookbag. Maybe Im being picky, but still

> 3 dayFor $50 or less its hard to find headphones better sounding than this pair. The balance between the bass, mids, and highs are superb. One word to describe the sound would be vibrant. However, these are absolutely horrible headphones for travel and use in loud environments, they essentially allow 100% of sound in and out. In terms of comfort, these arent the most comfortable, but in no way are they uncomfortable. Only the metal band becomes annoying after hours of use. I also love the 80s aesthetic because theyre so stand out. Build quality is okay, but you cant expect too much for such a low price. As long as you dont sit on them they shouldnt break.

> 3 dayI happened upon the review for these PortaPros on CNETs Web site from a few years back and was very interested. I really wanted these headphones to be the end of my search. Unfortunately, they were not. While the sound quality was good, it wasnt much different from the earbuds and noise-cancelling headphones I currently use. The comfort of these on-ear headphones was quite good, but they didnt blow me away.

Greater than one weekI ordered these in 2021 from this seller. I was shocked at how flimsy these headphones were. The headband was cheap. The cord was so thin it would break without much effort. However I never got to use these to find out how long they would last. There was only sound coming out of one side. I ended up throwing them out, complete waste of money. I regret buying them.

> 3 dayGreat sound quality for a low price -- less than $30. The instrumentals and vocals all have wonderful depth and clarity. Very lightweight and comfortable as well -- I dont like earbuds or over the ear cups, so these on-ear foam pad speakers are perfect. Incredibly comfortable. Well worth the money.

Greater than one weekI absolutely love these headphones! Ive been a runner all my adult life. I run 5-6 times a week. The biggest issue Ive had was finding the right headsets. Earbuds didnt work for me and I tried a bunch of different designs. Earbuds never stayed in my ears and I was constantly struggling with them throughout my runs. Wow, what a difference the Koss PortaPro Headphones have made! They sound great and are comfortable to wear. No more worrying about my headsets. I should have switched to these a long time ago. I just bought a second pair for my wife! Also, you cant beat the lifetime warranty on this product.

> 3 daySimply Amazing. The sound is so clean and smooth that I hear things in my music I had never heard before. I listen to a lot of different styles of music, and these headphones do well with all of them, especially the base-heavy electronic music. In addition, these are very comfortable to wear and very light. I highly recommend. Best headphones Ive ever owned, period.

> 3 dayVery handy pair of headphones. I have a much fancier gaming headset with all the high tech bells and whistles, but its just to bulky to travel with. These headphones easily collapse, and still sound VERY good. Very impressed with them considering the price. Not very comfortable if you use them for too long.
