 A couple things to keep in mind Apr 20, 2010
By coolreviewer1
"coolkayaker1"
I won't reiterate what others have said, but just make a couple pertinent points:
This is the best constructed headphone/ear protection I own. A have several by Peltor, and the one most comparable to the T3 is the Peltor H10A. The Peltor is not as well made; the over-head piece on the T3 is much better--it actually clicks into place and does not move. The Peltors are all wire, and move easily. I would say, if many people are going to use same headset (such as different shifts at a worksite), Peltor might be better as it's easily adjusted by just sliding on the wire. The T3 are better at a single set for your head size and it does not move.
The Peltor H10A might actually be a tad more comfortable for my head hat size at 7 3/4. The T3 is tight, and cannot be adjusted out for looseness. I'd rather wear the Peltor H10A for a protracted period of time than the Bilsom T3. If my head were smaller, I think the T3 would be fine.
The Bilsom T3 blocks sound better than any Peltor I have owned (I have owned about three models of Peltors). It's as simple as that.
Both have, because of the larger ear cup size (compared to lower profile, usually less protective for hearing, models) the ability to keep your head straight when dozing on an airplane. You know how people use the cervical neck pillow U-shaped things so they won't kink their neck to one side when they sleep on a plane? Well, you won't need that with a high-profile larger cup size sound protection like these---they stick out from your head enough that you will sleep with head straight ahead regardless. This is a "plus". And no need the lousy "noise cancellation" headsets for six times the price, plus batteries to charge, etc. These are great for air flight.
The Bilsom T3 is slightly wider on each ear cup than the Peltor H10A. Both, however, are not good to wear around your neck when not in use. The ear cups are too large and they will hit your chin. If you plan to wear and remove to "dangle" around your neck, like a rifleman might, you;d better stick with the lower-profile "shooter" type headsets...these are too wide. They will hit your chin, unless you have a super long neck.
The weight of each is about the same. I'd give the nod to the Bilsom for sound protection capability and quality of build (the wire overhead piece on Peltors can get stretched or bent--no chance with Bilsom) over the Peltor high-end models, having owned both. But, with my head size at 7 3/4, and certainly if your noggin is larger than mine, you'd better stick with Peltor. The wire can be bent to accomodate the jumbo cranium better than Bilsom. Thanks. Hope this helps you.

 Does the job well Oct 04, 2008
By J. Livni
After checking the specs on a bunch of noise protectors, I got the Bilsom T3 and am quite satisfied with it. They are on the large side but they do a very good job of cutting down noise levels. My Bilsom T3 (NRR 30) is comparable in performance to the Peltor H10-A (NRR 29), which I have also tried. I use the T3 when shooting photos at weddings and events where I have no choice but to work in very loud surroundings, sometimes even right in front of blasting speakers. The Bilsom T3 cuts noise down to comfortable levels. They are comfortable to wear, even after hours of use, but can become a bit sweaty after a while. They seem durable, though being kind to the all-plastic construction will probably help.

Just a Great Product Apr 28, 2008
By WLF
"An Amateur Renaissance Man"
I bought these for my wood shop. Based on other reviewers comments, these were reputed to be comfortable - better than my current "head vise" earmuffs.
Used them in the shop. Yup, they are ok....BUT.......
then I powerwashed the deck, my garden shed and house. WOW - I wore them for 5 hours and actually forgot I had them on. While I could still faintly hear the dogs bark or my wife call, these were completely comfortable and effective.
Wonderful product, excellent price - buy them!!

Excellent earmuff Jun 15, 2007
By N. Yu
Works as advertised. If you don't like earplugs, this will work for you. You can hear sound through the front and rear so you don't have to take it off to hear someone directly talking to you.

 Not as quiet as others, but had the space for the largest ears Sep 15, 2011
By Earth Watcher
Note: I have posted this same review to the product pages of all the products listed below.
I reviewed the following products, and have listed them in my order of preference:
1. Howard Leight R-03318 Leightning L3 Shooter's Premium Earmuff ([...])
2. Bilsom 1010970 Thunder T3 Earmuff NRR30 ([...])
3. Pro Ears Ultra 33 Passive Hearing Protection ([...])
I put them on and snapped my fingers. 1. was definitely quieter than the others. 2. and 3. were about the same, but 2. had space for larger ears. As such did 3. have the largest dampening number, but that didn't correlate to actual sound dampening.
