I use these in the gym primarily. They don't block out all the noise but they block enough that I can read while I am working out. I used them on one plane trip and they were great. My wife said the plane was one of the loudest she had ever flown and it was almost silent for me. They do much better an low sounds than high ones. And I think they block out enough sound to be useful without making it dangerous to have them on.

I chose these headphones after reading multiple reviews on them on different web sites. I needed noise cancelling headphones in order to concentrate at times here at work. My cubicle neighbor has the equivalent Bose model. We tested them out and neither of us could tell the difference in sound quality.

Rating: - If these aren't as good as the QC-3 they're awful darn close.
I have wanted a set of Bose QC-2 headphones since I used them a few years ago, but could never get myself to spend the $400. I've been using the JVC HANC80 phones, which are effective (much better than no noise cancellation) and very attractively priced ($35, if I'm not mistaken).
However, after spending a few days with my HANC250's I can say the noise cancellation is much better than the HANC-80, only a little more expensive, and a far cry from the price for the QC-2/3.

Rating: - Perfection, you are JVC Headphones...
I looked thoroughly through the reviews and features of all sorts of noise-canceling headphones on amazon.com and decided these were the best for me. They absolutely are. I got them for Xmas and tried them out already. I am so pleased. I was so afraid that since I hadn't tried them out at a store that I'd end up paying for an overpriced piece of junk that would break in five seconds. Not the case. These headphones have a very simple and elegant design. They aren't huge and clunky. The noise canceling ... Read More

I admit I have not tried high-end, high-priced models, but am totally satisfied with the price, performance, and comfort of the JVC 250 headphones, they are awesome. Some have complained about changing the batteries, I have no issue with this and find the batteries also last a long time. These over the ear models are comfortable and very effective. Great product, perfect price!
