VXI Blueparrott Roadwarrior B250-XT Bluetooth Headset
Review this product
Blueparrot Roadwarrior B250-XT Bluetooth Headset
I bought this headset for my son, who is a truckdriver. I have spoke with him many times before on his old bluetooth headset and don't know what kind it is but there was always a lot of background noise from the motor, road, etc. After getting him the Blueparrot Roadwarrior, I couldn't believe when I spoke with him that he was in his truck driving down the road. There was no background noise (zero background noise) at all - nothing but his voice. I think I chose him a great birthday present. He did say the only thing he was concerned about was the headset wasn't as tight on his head as the old one was but the new one was very comfortable and he hadn't experienced any problems at all with it so far. I think he had it about a week now.

The first headset that works for me
I am hearing impaired and have tried dozens of headsets. I can not wear my hearing aides with an in the ear device and can not hear on most of them anyway. I could hear perfectly and everyone could hear me. No one knew I was using a headset. A great headset!

Great for Diesel Truck Owners
The B250-XT lived up to the expectations I had from the reviews I read prior to purchase. It take a little getting used to weight and fit. But if you own a diesel pick up and want a hands free that works, this does the job.

A must for all Truck Drivers...you won't believe it
This is an amazing product. I am raving about it at work, at every stop and delivery. It is unbeatable. My wife never complains she can't hear me or even knows if the druck is running or stopped.

Used daily for more than a year...
...And still going strong. I only have a cell, no landline and I use my headset whenever I make a call. I never have problems hearing people even when I am on the phone in the car with the windows down. People on the other end of the line can never tell if I am home or in the car because the call quality is so clear. Granted, it is bulky and not fashionable, but all other blutooth devices fall off my ear. This one actually stays where its supposed to! Also, it is very easy to use. I bought one as a gift for a friend but her husband liked it so much he got a second one for himself. You don't have to be a trucker to get good use out of this headset. It's great for daily use by the average person. It's the perfect headset for anyone who uses their cell phone as their primary phone because of the ease of use and sound quality.

Headset called a Blueparrott B250-XT
It arrived quickly, my husband took it to the store and had the girls show him how to work it. He charged it up and all this week has been using it in the big truck. I keep asking him if he has his headset on as it is so quite. He as used it until it had no more charge. Glad we got this so far he is perfectly satified.

Best I've used
I've tried several different models over the years in a truck, and this is by far the best. I've been told that I sound like I'm on the land line and right next to them. Plus, the clarity of receiving is outstanding. No longer having to shove the bud into the ear to hear the other party. Excellent product.

I like this headset. Sound on both ends is great and the noise canc. feature works very well. Fit is good and holds a charge quite well.

Amazing bluetooth, wow!
My husband is a semi-truck driver and we were having a hard time hearing each other over the road noise. This headset cancels out 99.9% of all the noise, it's amazing! We can have long conversations and I have no idea that he's on the freeway with the window down, it's great!
Posted By: Marie - Apr 16, 2010
Excellent
Our drivers are reporting that they really like the headset.

Best noise cancelling headset you can buy!!!!
This my second Roadwarrior headset that I have purchased from you website. What can I say, absolutley amazing!! Very comfortable. Voice quality, clarity and volume are outstanding both on the incoming and outgoing voices. And very tough. I have a Pit Bull that has used it for a chew toy on several occasion and it wasn't until the fifth time that she got ahold of it that it finally gave up to the damage (which was quite extensive). If you need a high quality, noise cnacelling product, look no farther.

Love this Headset! Wish I would have found this product years ago. Great noise cancellation on mic and fantastic volume levels. Will be telling my trucker friends about this one!
Posted By: Jeff - Mar 3, 2010
best setup yet
As a trucker, this thing is great. I can be driving and on the phone at the same time, while being in total compliance with new laws about not using a cell phone while driving.
Its totally quit, and cuts outside noise.
I love it.

One of the best headsets to keep outside noise at a minimum. Get comments from people I'm talking to about how clear the communication is.

I like the fit, however I am still trying to get the hang of it, with being fully charged....hope to figure it out soon....

GREAT ! Best headset I've used
Overall an excellent product. Great sound, great noise cancelling. Without this headset, I do not even like using my cell phone. I have a blackberry curve and it's like having a pop-tart stuck to your ear, ...don't even use it without this headset. I like them so much, I own 3 sets, one for the car, 1 for the office and one for home.

the product works great. I like the background noise blocker. what I would like to see is something smaller that works as well. my only complaint is the product is bulky and cannot be worn under a cap.
Thank you so much for this great product keep up the good work..

Hi, my name is mike I bought the blue parrot two weeks ago and this is the longest I have ever kept a blue tooth on my ear. The blue parrot is real comfortable,no irritating piece in the ear and you still can't hear.I wear the bluetooth when Im driving I can hear over my loud engine with no problem ,I have Already had about six coworkers to ask me wear I get it from and they ask me the same thing can I hear over the engine. I recommend this Bluetooth to all truckers.

Great for a truckdriver
I bought this for my husband since he is a truckdriver. It works well with an Iphone. It works all around the back of his truck so he doesn't have to take his phone out of his truck. Well worth the money.

Great Headset, needs minor tweaking
I have had half a dozen bluetooth earpieces and none function as well as this one. If you have to have a tiny cutsey headset, don't get this one. If your priority is functionality, this is the one for you. Volume is sufficient and it will adjust louder than is comfortable. It has adequate range for me. I like it.
Major con - It utilizes a coaxial power plug for charging. It is not a proprietary or uncommon plug but I hate having to keep up with a collection of chargers. My other devices, particularly my cell phone have standardized using the USB jack for charging. It would be very helpful if this headset used one as well.
Minor con - Like most (or all) bluetooth headsets, this one uses a few buttons for a bunch of functions. I guess that is unavoidable to an extent, but I would appreciate a connect-disconnect slide switch and a small hard to hit pairing button.

Excellent Product
I have only had this headset for a few days but the sound quality is excellent. Volume is loud and clear. It feels very durable but not heavy while wearing it. The buttons are large enough for a man`s finger to utilize while driving. Battery life is great. A home and 12 volt charger are included in the package. The only problem is the flashing blue light while the headset is on, but you know about that going in. The Bluetooth Store sent the product out quickly, without a hitch.

This is my 2nd Blueparrott headset. It is an awesome product, the best I have ever used. The only reason I bought a new one is for the longer battery life. I still have my original 150.

Great unit!
Came to BlueToothStore to decide on my first Bluetooth headset, torn between the Joby Zivio with retractable boom mic (really cool looking!) and the VXI Blueparrot Roadwarrior B250-XT (really functional!). After discovering on the Joby site (myzivio.com) that the Zivio has been discontinued, it was clear that I should get this unit. After all, as anyone who drives a Jeep Wrangler knows, they ain't quiet, whether using a soft or hard top or neither. Besides, "looking cool" is secondary to being heard on the phone.
Setup was very easy, so top marks there. The acid test, though, was to call my friend, who always knew when I was on the road because he clearly heard the sound of rushing water, as though I were standing with my Blackberry on a riverbank next to the rapids.
I called him on the Blueparrot from the highway going about 65 mph with a noisy tractor-trailer in the lane immediately next to me. His first comment: "I'm glad you're not calling while you're driving, but why are you yelling?" We heard each other very clearly, and he heard no background noise.
I highly recommend this unit if noise is an issue.

Excellent Product - 2nd Unit in less that 6 days
Pros: -
Purchased 1st unit about a week ago, liked it so much I got a 2nd for my employee. I use it both in office and in vehicle (have a noisy Hummer). This is ONLY headset that I have ever used that is flawless when it comes to sound rejection and ease of understanding.
Con: - it is a bit bulky if out in public but that is very minor

Service
I am very happy with the Headset,but am extremely impressed with your customer service. Due to a promlem with Fed-Ex the headset was shipped back to company. I contacted Dan in your customer service & explained the problem & he sent a new headset immediately, without waiting for the original to arrive back at your facility.

HEAVY DUTY
THIS IS NOT A LIGHT AND DAINTY HEAD SET,BUT IT IS RELIABLE.#1 VERY LITTLE ROAD NOISE,#2 CONTROLS ARE LARGE AND SIMPLE TO USE. THE BLUE LIGHT CAN BE A LITTLE DISTRACTING AT NIGHT, EVERYONE IN THE CAR WILL KNOW YOU HAVE IT ON. YOU WANT WALK AROUND IN A STORE WITH IT ,EVERYONE WILL THINK YOU WORK FOR NASA. BOTTOM LINE PEOPLE ON THE OTHER END CAN HEAR ME CLEARLY AT ALL TIMES, AND I CAN HEAR THEM. I CHOSE BULKY RELIABLE OVER SMALL UNRELIABLE UNITS I HAVE OWNED IN THE PAST. ONE MORE NOTE THE UNIT HAS A LONG TALK TIME.CAUTION DO NOT PURCHASE FOR YOUR TEENAGE DAUGHTER.

It's a gift for my husband. He's an owner/operator of a semi. Other truckers told him that this one is the best so he asked Santa for one!!

Terrific Blue Tooth Headset
If you are not put off by its bulk, the sound quality and control buttons are the best of any wireless headset that I have ever used. Unfortunately, my dog chewed up the first one that I had.

Use of B250-xt in heavy duty trucks
I work for a freight company,that requires the drivers be hands free.I have never been that way,but when I discovered the Bx-250xt,this changed.This unit works extremely well,in all conditions.There is no background noise,when my window is down.It is very comfortablef for wearing all the time.I would recommend this unit for anyone who is looking for a great headset.

Awsome Head Set
I drive heavy construction vehicles and work in noisy enviornments all day long. This headset is BY FAR the best I have ever owned. If you are looking to be fashionable than this isn't for you. It is a bit bulky, and I look like I work in a fast food joint but I could care less because the sound quality on both ends is excellent. The site was easy to navigate, the shipping was quick; the sound clips helped in making my decision as well as reading the reviews.

Blueparrott
The Blueparrott I received did not work. I charged it for 12 hours like stated but it did not work. I am waiting on a replacement from the Blueparrott company because the bluetoothstore.com does not have a person to speak with on the phone. If you call you have to leave a message. Hopefully the replacement will work. I hope to enjoy the product if I can receive one that works. So far I am not satisfied.

A must have if you want to be heard...and hear
After trying many headsets I jumped in with the B250-XT. The reviews I read, both here and other places, were the deciding factor. I am not so vain as to be more concerned with looks than performance. As a salesman being able to hear and be heard, under any and all conditions, is paramount. It is in performance that this unit shines brightly. The loudest earpiece I've ever heard, with the best noise cancelling microphone. I tested it by making a phone call at 70MPH in a Corolla with all four windows down, speaking in a voice that was so soft I couldn't hear myself. The party on the other end said they could only occasionally hear something other than my voice. They were so impressed they bought one, giving up the Jawbone II that they were using. The only thing I've observed that is not up to the hype is range. I suppose you could get 60' or so with line of sight clear, but with walls and other obstructions in the way I cannot. However, this headset does stay connected much further away that any other headset I've tried.
If you're riding the fence on this one, don't. Just jump in. You will not regret it!

BluetoothStore is Tops and Headset is Great!
I ordered a B-250-XT and it came in very short order - seems to work great too! Thanks BluetoothStore for a great buying experience!

Can you hear me now?
I first saw this headset at your site earlier this year but was hesitant due to it's size and cost. So i replaced my deceased Jawbone with the Jawbone II. That proved to be a very disappointing choice,
My hearing is steadily getting worse and the noise in my work van adds to the problem. I really needed something which would allow me to hear a conversation while driving.
While the name causes me some confusion- i mean, there wasn't a blueparrott in the movie was there? Never mind. I am very happy with this headset, it does everything as advertised. If you have ever found yourself listening so hard/ concentrating so much to understand a conversation that you have lost focus on driving, this headset will end that problem.
Yes, the size can cause it to be a bit cumbersome. However the noise canceling mic and the very effective earpiece/speaker more than make up for the small inconvenience of extra bulk. Battery life is impressive, charging time is short and the controls are easy,even for me to use.
Buy it- tell people that you got a gig as sports commentator or that you are part a special ops mission- whatever, you will hear 'em loud and clear!
Now, about that name. . . . . . .

Best Headset on the Market
The blueparrott has to be the best bluetooth by far. I've had three of them(because the previous models had faulty batteries) and they still were the best ones ever. Besides being a bit big, wearing the blueparrott in the shopping mall makes me feel like im on a lunch break from mcdonalds or something. other than that it has the best noise canceling from any bluetooth. The Plaintronics voyager 510 comes in a close seccond.

Love It
I purchased this item for my husband who is a professional driver. He loves the the fact that it doesn't interfere with the ear part of his glasses like the old one did. And, he sounds so much clearer on this headset. Before we both had trouble hearing each other. Love it.

Blueparrott Roadwarrior B250-XT Bluetooth Headset
We are not a new customer. We had the B150 before. My husband does not like having so many control buttons on the B250. He likes the fact that being hard of hearing, he can hear well with this product. He is a truck driver and depends on his phone.

Works with Top Down
Like many others, I've tried every headset that claimed to cancel noise. Actually came here to get the Zivio, but the reviews on the BlueParrot were convincing. Bottom line: technology doesn't beat having the mic in front of the mouth! I can hear and be heard clearly with the top down on the highway. Now I just need a big enough place to store it in my Miata...

Blueparrott Roadwarrior B250-XT Bluetooth Headset
I like both the mic and ear piece. Sound is clear on both ends. The head band could be a little longer. Maybe I just have a fat head but I have its fully extended and it's a little uncomfortable. A model that covers the entire ear might also be better for hearing.

Blue Parrott
This is an excellent product. You already know that. You should try to get Blueparrott to make this in a wired version that will fit into the 3.5 mm hole that is in all of the Blackberrys. What a home-run that would be. Some people don't like worrying about charging headsets. So, a Blueparrott wired version would be great. Thanks. By the way, what sold me on the Blue Parrott and your company was the video you produced on Your Tube.
Posted By: E. Mart - Aug 5, 2009
Excellent headset
I work on cell sites, both indoors and outdoors. It's a pretty noisy enviroment with all the fans going, etc. I've tried most of the bluetooth headsets available, but this is the first one I've found that actually works while I'm on site.
Posted By: John - Aug 4, 2009
This headset is a MUST for all truckers. I have tried everything out there in the "small in the ear" variety at all price points and none even come close to the Blue Parrots performance.
I have gone over 14 hours of talking and it was still not dead.
I have stood next to my tractor engine with the hood OPEN and talking to someone and when I asked if they could hear the engine, the response was "why are you shouting?". I couldn't hear myself talking but on their end it was like I was in a quiet room. I have yet been on ANY environment where the
other person could hear anything at all besides my voice.
Those are the strong points and what sells this headset. Those two features. (battery life and noise cancelling)
The downside is that you look like you are ready to say "would you like to try our new value menu burger meal?" at any moment. However if you are in a truck stop you will blend right in. Let's just say it's the type of headset you typically leave in your vehicle.
Also, I noticed after about 3 hours of talking my ear started to sweat a little but nothing terrible. Minor issue at best.
The bottom line is this. If you want to hear the person you are talking to and you want them to hear you like a land line AND be able to use it ALL day long, this is your headset. Trust me, I'm particular and l'll never use a different headset driving my rig again.

Excellent product
I purchased the Blueparrott for my husband. He is a truck driver and we have had a difficult time finding anything that did not have a lot of background noise. The Blueparrott has worked wonderfully. He has already had several of his friends purchase the same set from your website too and they are just as pleased.
Posted By: Leigh - Jul 29, 2009
I've Tried them ALL in my truck
After trying almost EVERY headset out there from Jawbone to Plantronics to Motorola, I was convinced that there was no such device that would provide excellent noise cancellation AS WELL AS excellent battery life. Well....
This headset not only gives 16 hours of talk time, but the noise cancellation is like nothing on earth. I stood next to my tractor trailer engine running with the hood OPEN and the person on the other end of the phone could not hear anything at all but my voice. This headset is truly amazing. I even tried driving 65 with both windows down and the stereo at a pretty high volume and still, the other person only heard my voice. Bottom line is this. If you are tired of people not hearing you or you not hearing them (this headset is so loud you will need to turn it down) or of your background noise interfering, or of it dying out, GET THIS HEADSET. PERIOD.

UGLY but FUNCTIONAL
Excellent product - ugly (looks like a telemarketer headset), but very functional. If your looking to set a fashion trend don't buy -- if you want an excellent bluetooth that works in noisy or windy environments this is for you. I own and drive a semi and this is the best bluetooth I've had after trying six different ones. Would definitely recommend the product to anyone in a noisy environment. After getting used to the fit, the product did more than what was expected. The earpiece speaker had to be turned down and everyone I've talked to has commented on the clarity of the transmission.
Posted By: Rod - Jul 24, 2009
Works great
As others have commented, not the most stylish headset, but it works great. Top-down in a Jeep Wrangler at 70 mph and can easily carry on a conversation.
Posted By: Todd - Jul 8, 2009
The first headset would not hold a charge, but BlueTooth promptly answered our email and authorized us to return the headset. The new set arrived very fast and works superply. It is very clear. I drive a truck and I can hear my wife very clearly above all the noise. I am very pleased with my choice and your service.
Posted By: Richard - Jul 7, 2009
Keeps their promise
We've tried most of the other brands; cheap and expensive, but this one beats them all hands down. It's comfortable, ugly, bulky, and works like a dream. There's no background noise at all (even at 70mph with windows down). Easy to pair with phone. Just wish I'd found it sooner!!! Would recommend it to anyone on the go especially those working around trucks and lots of noise.
Posted By: Gordon - Jun 29, 2009
Excellent voice quality!
I've tried other headsets, most notably an expensive BlueAnt. Invariably, the sound quality was poor on both ends. The sound quality of this headset in unbelievable! The caller's voice is crisp and clear and I've not had one complaint about the sound quality of my voice, either. Granted, the headset is not small, compact, or easily hidden like other In-the-Ear headsets and you probably wouldn't want to be seen walking around with it (you'd look like a walking telemarketer!), but if you're looking for great quality over being 'fashion-forward,' this is the headset for you! BlueTruth.com also offered this headset at a better price than anyone else on the Internet. Almost $50 cheaper, including their extremely low shipping charges. And shipping was fast. I had the headset within a few days of ordering it, and that was using standard shipping! A great product from a very reliable company!

The B250-xt is great

Love my blueparrott
I'm an over the road truck driver and I have no problem hearing the person I'm talking to with the Blueparrott headset..no worries when shifting gears driving as the headset frees up both hands! My buddy also purchased one and loves his hands free abilities also.

The best headset I've owned, and I've owned a lot
I wanted to own this handset for several weeks before writing a review on it.
This is, hands down, the ugliest headset you will ever own. You will look like a throwback from the '80s. However, you will sound like a million dollars. Everyone I've called has asked me if I ditched my cell phone for a land line, it's that clear. I work with a lot of computers, and our data center is loud. People hear me without any problems, and I can hear them as well.
I have owned the Jawbone I and II, the Blue Ant Z9, various Motorola headsets and just about every Plantronics headset. This one, simply, blows them away with sound quality (incoming and outgoing).
The other day, I had to use my Jawbone (Version 1) (the B250 was charging) and everyone complained about how lousy I sounded compared to before.
The bottom line is this: if you want a headset that gives you as close to land line sound quality (or wired headset sound quality), then this is your headset.
Posted By: Scott - Jun 12, 2009
Bluetooth you can actually hear
I drive a convertible, often with the top down. While I might be able to hear OK using an "in-ear" device, the person on the other end of the line can't understand what I'm saying. The Blue Parrott B250-XT works exceptionally well for both parties.

Works good ina a loud UPS Package car
I have used as a package car driver at UPS. some of our oledr trucks are really loud, people I am talking to say they hear me better then ever. The head set seemed odd at frist since I have a medium size head, but it is comfortable and it stays in place while working hard. When climbing steps briskley the ear piece gets scratchy, but that may be because I am leaving the phone in the truck, as I make deliveries. Best quality sound after trying many phones.
Posted By: Bill - May 27, 2009
Just buy it, you won't be sorry.
After trying various Bluetooth units by other makers I finally have one that works. I drive truck and not one person can tell I am driving down the road even with the windows down. They all thought I was sitting still. I ordered it next day air on a Sunday night and it was waiting for me when I got home from work on Tuesday. Thanks BlueTruth for carrying this product.

Works great!
The thing that made me choose the Blueparrott was when talking to my truck driver friend, it would sound like he was sitting in his living room when actually he was going 60 on the interstate. The noise cancelling is wonderful. The headset is a little small for me, but I can find a way to make it comfortable. So far I have no realistic complaints!

The best Bluetooth headset I ever ever had!
I am a salesman and use my cell phone (an iphone3g) really mostly for work purposes. I am on the phone a million times a day so getting the BEST bluetooth headset "where I can hear..and be heard" is MOST important to me. What is not important to me is, STYLE..I don't care if my bluetooth is small and cute, or like in this case..looks like I should be flying an airplane as the Blueparrot is rather large. That being said I actually find this Blueparrot an attractive device..but people WILL notice you are wearing it, especially if you are just walking around. Long story short I have owned, or do own..the original jawbone..the Blue ant Z9 the one that talks,Plantronics Voyager,...a Joby zivio...an older Jabra. To cut to the chase without a doubt THIS Blueparrot is by far the best sounding bluetooth on both the listening end and transmission end by FAR. I guess you just can't beat a boom mic being where your mouth is...not something up by your ear...and expecting it to sound great to the party you are talking to. I find this Blueparrot to be well made..and so far it is the only bluetooth I have ever used that NEVER loses a connection. Honestly, I am old fashioned and would actually prefer an old wired headset like a Sure Quietspot..but it's impossible to find adapters these days as every cell phone has it's own plug..not just universal 2.55mm anymore. So Unless you NEED a small bluetooth I can't see anyone not LOVING this Blueparrot headset..btw the battery seems to last forever..very satisfied!

Roadwarrior Bluetooth Headset
Best automotive headset I've tried

Awesome product, weak instructions
I have received numerous compliments on how clear my voice is broadcasting when using this headset, and when does that ever happen. I love this product. However, the little instruction booklet falls short in helping me understand the blinks and buttons. It could have been written much better. I am still unclear on some of the functions.

A headset worth every penny!
This is the best headset I have ever spent my hard earned money on. I have a hearing problem so the earbuds don't work for me so well. I had to actually turn the volume down on this headset because I could actually hear what was being said. Great product!
The only thing that I would suggest is that Bluetooth live chat rep know their product better when contacted about problem solving. Helpful hint: By the way, if the connection from the bluetooth disconnects from the handheld. All you have to do is plug the headset back into the charger, place your phone next to the headset, wait 45 seconds and it will reconnect. It resets itself and works great after this little glitch is rectified.
Thanks for carrying a great product at a great price.

Awsome Unit
As a truck driver I have tried at least 9 different types of bluetooth units. The Blueparrott 250-XT is the only unit I can clearly hear out of and no back ground noise at all. I even have to turn the volume down itd do clear and a excellent battery life. Truckers this is the unit you need.

Blueparrott Roadwarrior B250-XT Bluetooth Headset
I drive truck and with the noise that is generated by the truck I could never hear any of the other headsets I have had. I love the range of the unit you can leave the phone in the truck charging and still talk on the phone while opening the doors on your trailer. It is by far the best unit I have found for the money.

I drive a truck and this headset is the best of the three I have previously tried. It sounds great and cuts out all noise.

Chad Larson Blueparrot Opinion
I work for a agricultural supply company, and I was chosen, since I am the salesperson who puts on 2,400 miles per month. We have tried the smaller "bluetooths", and "jawbones", and although compact in size, we ran into issues with noise. Customers would even say take that earpiece off and talk through the phone. Although less compact, the value seen in the "parrot" has been obvious, to me, and the customers on the other end. Good audio, and no one complains about not hearing me with background noise. I like how it automatically hooks in to the blackberry when I take it off the charger. And despite its larger size, it is comfortable to wear. Based on my input, they have gotten all the sales force your parrot. Thanks. Chad

Blueparrott review
I purchased this headset for a friend of mine who is a truckdriver. He is very pleased with it, and it is a perfect headset for noise reduction. Highly recommend and very affordable.

Greatest Headset ever
I'm a truck driver from Texas. In the past getting a phone call while driving was a nightmeire on any street. Now with my B250 i don't have to ask my customers to repeat anymore becouse I can hear thim loud and clear without anything pooking into my ear. In other words if you are a Truck driver or work someplasce very noisy IT'S A MUST HAVE HEADSET.

Finally, a bluetooth headset I can hear!
I drive a convertible and even when the soft top is up it makes too much noise for a bluetooth headset when I'm driving over about 45 MPH. That is until I found the Blue Parrott B250. This works perfectly and the volume is incredible. I usually have the volume at less than half its max and its plenty loud. I'm using it paired with a Blackberry Curve. I haven't had the top down yet but I'm expecting great things there as well. The headset came receommended by a Harley rider and he claims he uses it while riding down the road. I'm hoping to have the same luck but I'm just pleased it works with the top up, anything else will be a bonus!

B250
Headset has worked well. I have a big head (yeh, I know) and the headband holder seems a little small at first but when you get comfortable with it, seems to work good. Hearing, on both sides of the conversation is good.

WOW!!! Blueparrott Roadwarrior B250
I am a trucker driver and I just bought my B250 last week. I ordered it on a sunday and it arrived quickly on tuesday. I charged it the 12 hours and then called everyone. The sound is great. Everyone can hear me over the truck noise or window being down or the CB noise or music playing and I can hear them loud and clear. The battery life is great. Talk so far about 6 hours straight with no problems. I don't get the 66' feet range, but I don't intend on being that far from the phone anyway so no biggie. I will be telling everyone of Bluetruth.com and the Blueparrott. All truckstops were sold out, but BlueTruth.com had it and I got it fast. My next bluetooth for more smaller occasions will be from Bluetruth.com. I am your customer now. Thanks

NJ trucker
Well 4th times the charm. After buying 3 yuppie headsets, I found a keeper. The Roadwarrior B250 is what a trucker needs. After I recieved a $150.00 ticket on the NJ Turnpike for talking on my cell. I won't be without my roadwarrior again

The Best Headset
This the 3rd Headset I've tried, and will be the last. I drive a late model semi that's loud and proud and its like being in the same room while using this product.

Great Headset
Bought this to replace old Blueparrott that had been repaired through warranty twice. Very comfortable and sound quality is the best I've found in any headset on the market. Have never had a problem keeping it paired with my phone.
Ordered on Friday, and was delivered Monday morning. Thank you Bluetruth for great service.

I have tryed calling tech support and theres no help there CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP?!!! I am a truck drive and i dont have time to keep re-connecting this thing every few mins
Posted By: crystal - Feb 10, 2009
Works well for convertible's
It looks a little clunky, but is the only headset I've found that works when driving with the top down. My voice comes through loud and clear with hardly any wind or radio noise.

Great BT headset
My wife, and I both drive for a living. I purchased her a cheaper brand headset, and then purchased the Blueparrott Roadwarrior B250 for myself.
Both of our headsets are bluetooth, hers is a light weight over the head type, and it works great, but the battery life is shorter than mine.
I was happy to find that the Blueparrott came with both a wall charger, as well as a car charger.
The sound is great, I can hear every word spoken, as well, people I am talking to can understand me perfectly, no external noise.
I would highly suggest this headset for anyone working in the trucking industry, or any other type of work enviroment that has high noise levels.
It is a little bulky, but that is alright, it is worth dealing with for the sound quality.

Great Product
First of all, product arrived on time.
The Roadwarrior B250 is excellent in all aspects.
I can hear clearly without much effort. it was easy to pair with my phone. I was also complimented on how no noise was heard from my side of phone call. The unit is built sturdy but feels comfortable. This has to be the best unit i have purchased with competitive pricing. I will recommend it to other truckers that have been looking for a unit this great.

Just Love It
I just love this blueparrott, i am a truck driver, and it can get very noisy inside of the cab, with the headset a can hear someone call and talk to them and the sound is great, they also say that they do not notice i am in the truck because they cannot hear any noise, also i haul bulk plastic and when i load and unload i have to start a loud blower which is attached to my truck, i can still hear some calling and talk to them just like i am inside of a quiet building, this is a great product, and wish i have ordered it earlier, i had a plantronic from sprint and did not like it at all, keep up the good work

Happy Customer
The Blueparrott Roadwarrior B250 I purchased works great. Sounds clear and everyone I'v talked to on it say I sound fine. It is very comfortable even after wearing a long period of time. Other bluetooth devices have always botherd me after a short time. I did have a problem with the first one they sent me. I contacted the manfacture first and they were very helpful with trying to find the problem and sent me a new battery to see if that fix it, it didn't so I contacted BlueTruth and they promptly sent a new one. It works great.
Thank You for solving my handsfree comunication needs.

Great piece of equipment
As a truck driver, I was having a hard time finding a hands free phone system that I could safely use while traveling down the road. I tried a Plantronics Discovery which according to the sales person was top of the line and was supposed to have great noise cancelling abilities. It wasn't long until my wife told me that I really needed to do something with my phone, she could not understand me and that the truck noise was making it impossible to talk....I gave her the Plantonics and I went searching for another phone. I found the blueparrott on the internet, ordered it and got it in the next day. What a difference. Not only are the people that I am talking to, much happier, but so am I. Headset is heavier than the ear piece that I had been using previously, but other than that, I love this phone. Boom Mike knocks out all of the truck noise, even the CB and AM/FM background noise. I have asked people what they were hearing in the background, they say nothing. I have called my answering system at home and left a message so that I could hear what others hear. I was impressed, nothing but voice was coming thru, nothing else. Great phone.

Good
Works excellent, it is the first headset that I have to turn down. I can hear great, and others hear me fantastic. It was worth every penny, I wish they were cheaper so I could get them as xmas gifts for all family members.

Blueparrott Roadwarrior B250 - Road Tested
Since our company has gone to cellular phones as their primary communication method; this headset has been a savior both on the road and in the home office. They are so much more comfortable than ear buds and the noise cancelling features make the phone line sound as good as a landline no matter where you are.

Blueparrott Roadwarrior B250
Tried four other models before the Blueparrott Roadwarrior and this is the only one that sounds like I am sitting home in my livingroom. No one can hear the truck running in the background, and I like the over the ear design. It is really great, thank you!
Posted By: Richard - Nov 20, 2008
Yes!
I was looking for something just like this because I like over-the-head headsets, and was always complaining that Bluetooth headsets were all tiny. This fits great, and sounds just like my office headset, even with my cell phone! Awesome!
Posted By: Phil - Sep 15, 2008
It really is loud
I needed a bluetooth that was loud, and man does this fit the bill. When I first turned it on I had to turn the volume down, and it's great for in the car...but that's about the only place I wear it, it's not exactly a fashion accessory. Highly recommended.
