The Musicozy is almost everything I expected…almost. It suffers from some minor flaws here and there that could be perfected. The best parts of the mask are the main purpose, it blocks out light WELL, is very comfortable, connects more easily than I expected to bluetooth devices, charges quite fast and connects to and disconnects from charger cable very easily. Also has pretty good volume and sound transmission (overall…see below).
Except for the little electronic control box in the forehead portion and the small audio speakers and adjoining wires, the entire thing is made of superbly-soft material, very comfortable!! The speakers are perfect because they are pretty much thin discs that transmit sound AROUND the ears rather than penetrating ear buds that would present a threat to hearing over prolonged sleep hours. The box and the speakers sit loosely in their own built-in ‘sleeves’ in the well-designed cloth. The velcro strap on the back of the head is sufficient for a wide range of head sizes.
A bit of a problem arises because the speakers sit a bit loose inside their respective sleeves, causing them to sometimes fall a bit too far from the ear canals for good sound transmission while sleeping…and so one tends to tighten and adjust the whole mask portion to get the speakers to land just right. But in doing so, another little problem becomes evident in that the curve built in to slot around the nose, doesn’t curve in enough, and so the bottom edge of the mask will tend to cover the nostrils when trying to get the speakers to cover the ears. It’s a bit annoying but not unmanageable.
The tiny light indicators that emanate from the plastic control box inside the mask have to shine through very tiny holes cut into the mask, sometimes these don’t line up well because the box sits loosely inside its own little sleeve like the speakers do…so these lights are very hard to see, making it hard to know if its connected and charging, to make sure you have correctly plugged it in to charge or not.
I bluetooth into the mask via my ipad at bedtime. However, after getting up in the morning, when I sit at my desk, I notice my ipad refuses to play sound because it has not disconnected from the mask on its own, obviously since it doesn’t know that I have gotten up. But pressing the power button on the mask does not ‘shut off’ the mask or cause the ipad to disconnect from the mask. So I have to manually “Disconnect” from Musicozy in order for my ipad to play sound. It seems the power button on the mask really only serves to pair the mask to a device.
Again, minor issues IMO, little bits I have gotten past enough to say that I am very happy with how this product delivers what it claims to deliver. I helps me sleep much more soundly than I did without it.
