Bought this for my husband who has painful callus on bottom of his feet. Dont like the removable insole but Ill see if they smell less cause u can wash them and put back in! The two hooks I have are in the kitchen, attached to the side of my island near the dishwasher and sink. With a few minutes work, I enlarged the hole so that the volume keys are no longer touched. It has very thick rubber gaskets that inspire confidence in the IPX rating. These beads are tiny, which is exactly what I wanted for making eyes for fly tying. I ended up not using it. The lack of pressure sensitivity means this is not a good choice for artists but it should function just fine for notetakers and children. Dont buy if you have a bigger than average head, the headset will not fit you. They are very comfortable to wear.
