Negative Positive
Title: Fragile - suitable only for the Bubble-Boy, not frequent flyers
Review: I am on my second pair of Bose QuietComfort 2 headphones - and like so many in the other reviews here both mine broke. The first time they broke I paid $100 for a replacement pair, and the replacement then started to crack in the same place as my first pair! So I quickly pulled out the black electrical tape and effected a repair before they completely broke again. My self-back-patting was shortlived however when they broke completely at the swivel joint, while I was wearing them. I treated these headphones with the utmost care and they still broke. I fly a lot and the noise cancelling really helps reduce the fatigue from the engine roar so I will try another manufacturer, probably Sennheiser. I always found the sound quality to fine, not great but when you're on an aircraft you don't expect much. But I do expect something that costs $300 to be able to stand up to the rigours of everyday life.
Is the review positive or negative?
