 They break easily Feb 19, 2009
This is a love-hate relationship.
I bought my first set Oct 1, 2008 and loved it. All the comments above apply. The fact that they stay in my ear, hang around neck when not in use and the fabric cord cover....
BUT...In March one channel stopped working. I contacted Rivit and they sent a replacement. I was happy again.
Then I decided to buy a spare in case it happens again.
Long story short...I was the proud owner of 5 (FIVE) DEAD earbuds and the company wasn't responding to my warranty requests for replacement.
So, I took one apart to see if I could fix the problem (I said I liked the product, right?) Found the problem to be the wire connection at the plug. I've re-soldered mine and put a different strain relief on it and all is fine.
One weak point on an otherwise fine product...own one if you can solder or know someone who can.
Decent earphone for $20, no way for $60 Sep 25, 2008
So I've gone through 3 sets of these. First set cost me $10, second set cost me $20, third set $35. Each set I had has broken such that:
a. one earbud no longer works
b. mic button no longer works
c. cord snaps off at button
I'd be willing to continue to get this at the original price, 'cause I like the way they fit and the lanyard design is very convenient, but $60 is way outrageous for a product that is just ok.
 Broke after a couple of months Jul 21, 2008
I really liked these headphones before they broke. They fit well, the sound was fine by me, and I like the lanyard design. But eventually they broke, now the sound cuts out at the slightest movement of the wire, rendering them useless.
I loved these 20 buckers while they worked! Jul 17, 2008
I really love these earbuds but they are already broken!
I've been using them daily for a month and really love them. They sound is as good as a pair of $20 earbuds can.
However, the connector has already started shorting out. Too bad - I like these way better than the iPhone earphones.
I'm very rough on earbuds but most brands last me 6 months before they get to the state these are in.
Still, I may buy another set since there are no other inexpensive options yet.
Mine was defective and the manufacturer did not care. Jul 16, 2008
I got this and loved it for a about 10 days until one ear bud stopped working. It had a bad connection and would work if I played with the cable. I got it on sale for under $10 and decided not to bother returning it to Amazon. I contacted Rivet through their support email and never got any response.
