Alpine SleepSoft review

Alpine SleepSoft is the simpler sibling of SleepDeep. Instead of three sizes, it comes in one universal fit that Alpine lists at 9 to 12 mm in diameter, and the company rates it at 25 dB of average attenuation (SNR), two points under SleepDeep. Alpine pitches that level as enough to cut snoring and street noise while leaving an alarm clock or doorbell audible, which is a fair goal for parents and anyone who cannot risk sleeping through an alarm. Alpine says the plugs can be reused up to 100 times, and the box includes a storage case and an insertion sleeve. ANSI and CE certification are listed on the page. The odd part is the price: at $16.95, SleepSoft costs a dollar more than a single-size SleepDeep pair, so once you know your size, SleepDeep is the better buy. SleepSoft makes most sense for people who do not want to guess a size and prefer a softer, less deep fit. Alpine's 100-day satisfaction guarantee applies.
