Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent value for the price
Comment: Very effective inside a plane comparing to the other noise cancelling headphone I have. Sound is ok for what it does. However, in a moving vehicle, it actually distorts the music which is a surprise. My other noise-cancelling headphone does not do that. It appears to have a relative long lag time in creating the opposite noise-cancelling wave. By the time the opposite wave applies to the music, the intruding noise is over. Otherwise, no complains.

Summary: Great value, low risk
Comment: I had mine for 9 months and loved them on plane trips. Very comfy on my ears for long periods, not TOO goofy-looking due to smaller profile, rugged folding mechanism, and satisfying noise reduction. The "low risk" part? I absent-mindedly left mine behind on my last flight to Germany. Do I miss them? Yes, so I will buy exactly the same ones again. Do I feel bad about having to pay twice? Yes. But I did not have to pay over $200 twice! I can lose them 5 times and break even with Bose. Oh, and be sure to bring a spare AAA battery on your trip. Even if you remember to turn it off there is only so much sound a little battery can cancel over many hours.

Summary: For the money, they work great
Comment: While these headphones will never rival Bose or any other more expensive brand of noice cancelling headphones, you are also not paying the hundred + dollars for these. I recently took my headphones on a business trip. I had played with them in the office, and found them to remove the air blower noise very well. The ultimate test was the plane trip. I found that they effectively removed to low hum of the airplane, and sufficently boosted the audio, to where the aircraft noise was no longer noticed.
The ear cups do get a tad hot, but truly, for the price, these are a great purchase.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Impressive for the Price
Comment: I've had my headphones for a couple of months and figured it was worth taking a chance based on the low price. I was impressed by the sound as well as the noise cancelling capability. I'd estimate the noise cancelling at somewhere between 6-12 dB on low frequencies... plenty good enough for 80% of music lovers. I suspect the Bose or Sony might be up to 20 dB noise reduction. BTW, each 6 dB is like 2x less loud. This is a well worthwhile purchase at $25 except for the true audiophiles.
