Never heard of Tozo? Thousands of Amazon buyers are beyond impressed – and they’re raving about the company’s earbuds with nearly 30,000 glowing five-star reviews.

Here’s one from a customer who bought the A1s for his niece: “They stay in her ears and produce excellent sound quality and a great price! … These are durable and of high quality. The touch functions work great, she loves that she can control the volume and pause what she’s listening/watching without touching her tablet; this makes it easy to mount the tablet on the headrest so she doesn’t have to hold it on long car journeys… These are great earbuds especially for a first pair as if the kids lose or break them they will are not expensive to replace.”

In fact, one of the customers who gave the A1s a 5-star review was so impressed that he bought the slightly more expensive T6 earbuds for his wife: “She loves that she’s no longer tethered to the laptop… The earbuds are really comfortable and stay in place for her extremely well!… She used them to listen to music yesterday when she was out in the garden and says the sound quality is the best she’s ever heard these give a great all round sound and have great bass, especially if you set your sources EQ right! The business charges them once every three days.’

Even better, he notes, is how durable they are: “She dropped one in her cereal when she took it out of the charging case. We turned it off, washed it with soap and water and wiped it dry, turned it back on and it still works like new! These are very water resistant!”

This customer says the “bass is strong and resonant, the high end is very crisp and clear. The mids may be a bit hollowed out but it’s not bad. He adds that they “sound much better than any normal wired earbuds I’ve had, and it’s really nice not having a wire on the phone when you’re trying to listen to something and cook or do other tasks.”

“Virtually indestructible,” exclaimed one reviewer who put the T12 through its paces. “I’ve been a fan of Tozo for a few years…After today’s incident I’m never buying anything else again. I was at work listening to music and…my close colleague dropped it [the earbuds] in the oil fryer. By the way, our oil fryer is set at 350°F. They immediately panicked and drained the fryer… Believe it or not, but [the earbuds] played perfectly… Tozo T12 is apparently 350°F fryer oil resistant!”
