Amazon shoppers are raving about a £16.50 gadget, hailed as a ‘godsend’ for those who struggle to fall asleep. The unusual device, Amazon‘s Sleep Headphones, is earning high praise for its ability to aid sleep, even during flights – and is being hailed for saving people’s marriages.
This unique product combines an eye mask with a speaker, allowing users to listen to white noise, audio books or relaxing music without disturbing their partner or the discomfort of bulky headphones. The headphone eye mask, available in four different colours, usually retails at £21.99 but has been reduced to just £16.50.
This is cheaper than picking them up from eBay (£19.69). The Sleep Headphones boast a Bluetooth speaker that provides between 10 to 14 hours of music playback per charge, along with a super soft eye mask that effectively blocks out light. What sets this product apart is its comfort throughout the night, unlike ear buds or headphones which can cause discomfort over time.

Users can adjust the speakers near the ears to set the perfect volume and also adjust the size of the mask when necessary. With an impressive average rating of 4.3 stars from over 2,997 reviews, Amazon customers have praised the Sleep Headphones for improving their sleep by blocking out unwanted sight and sound, reports the Manchester Evening News.
One Amazon shopper raved: “Bought this as my partner snores quite loudly and I’m a light sleeper. I had tried ear plugs, headphones and nothing worked. After feeling really frustrated and having a few arguments, I decided to order this with low expectations. But it works, it’s very comfortable to wear. A lot of reviews say you can’t sleep on your side wearing this, but I can. I don’t find it affects my comfort in any sleeping position. The music function is really relaxing, I even think I would use this mask for mindfulness purposes too! Really great quality, and for the price you can’t complain.
“Only thing I wish was better is the Velcro strap, as I find it slightly irritating and my hair tends to get stuck in the Velcro when I first put it on. But other than that, I can’t fault this product.” Another happy customer titled their review ‘This saved my husband’s life’.
She added: “They are quite comfortable and last a long time so don’t have to charge as often as I think. In summer may be a tad on the warm side but once I pass out through the night I tend to be able to take off. And I have managed to buy on our joint account as this is helping me sleep and it’s helping him from not getting nudged throughout the night to shut up.”
A third remarked: “Over the last few years I have bought 5 Bluetooth sleep masks (not all from same vendor). Most lasted me 7 months or less. Charging was always an issue too – the actual ports/plugs in the masks were difficult to find and every night the headphone bits would constantly move about so I’d spend ages making it fit me again! But that one is the best I’ve bought! I love the material – soft and comfy and the headphones stay in place (although an be adjusted easily if need be). The charge port is really easy to find too! I use it every night and I just hope it lasts a long time!”
However, a less satisfied customer wrote: “This was my first foray into this type of product and I have to say they are a great idea. This product however left a little to be desired. Like others have commented the volume buttons don’t work – on mine it skipped to the next piece of music. It also made my face very hot when I used it. Finally gave up the ghost when after 2 months the velcro strap came off and now it’s pretty much useless.”
Another said: “Item arrived well packed in nice luxury box. Looks good as a gift. Eyes well covered, headphones in good position very comfortable to wear, sound good. But unfortunately my sleep music which I usually listened on wire headphones this time in this headphones which are using Bluetooth 5.2 caused me a headache.”
