I got this case for my new (expensive) Bose earbuds. Unfortunately, I could not wrap them around the plastic center with the StayHear ear tips on them (thus the 4 star rating). So, with a little patience and force I popped out the center piece (which was just glued in). Now it is just an open, hollow case and now I wind them tight and they fit in beautifully! I don't advise everyone to modify the case, but I really liked the fact that this is a hard shelled case with a keyring and it did not look like an earbud case to deter people from taking it. I have mine hooked on the key leash in my backpack and everyone who sees it thinks it is a pill case.
