"Way too fragile for everyday use"

I was enjoying the headphones on my business trip for a few weeks. Then after a couple of months I tried them again and some plastic parts on both the right and left headphones got broken almost at the same time. After a little research I found out that it's not worth while sending them to get the warranty repair money-wise. So I used some tape to fix them as the they sound really quite well.
My understanding is that these headphones could be good for traveling but they are too fragile for everyday use.
"Great Headphones"

First set of headphones I have owned that actually have me reaching for them. I bought these headphones for my wife, when I got her an iPod. Since she cannot tolerate earbuds. The sound on these headphones is wonderfull, super clean and very deep. The headphones themselves are very light and comfotable to wear, she is always using them at the gym with no problems. Considering the market, I think these are an affordable solution to most peoples needs, If your not a DJ or a Studio Tech, these should work just fine. They are very resiliant and fold in a case when your done.
I had my first set of open air white plastic Sennheiser headphones in the early seventies; would run the 150' cable from the stereo down to the beach and listen to Cat Stevens, et al, for hours. Now, in the day of the mp3 and xm player, I have a pair of basic Sennheiser ear buds with a convenient volume control slide. I purchased these PX200W phones simply to see if I could get a little more 'oomph!' in the playback. I'm pleased with these phones, like the white finish, and, as another reviewer commented, 'as soon as you figure out how to wrap them up in the convenient carrying case without destroying them...' you are home-free. I'm a dedicated Sennheiser fan, and use these new phones as an alternate to the very convenient buds.

I've had the PX200s for just 3 months, and the right wing just snapped, dropping the earphone out of the adjustable holder.
I've loved these headphone; they deliver excellent sound and provide a tight fit to minimize outside sound interference. I very much enjoyed the fold-up feature, exercising care w/ the folding and placing into the provided bag for carrying. I'm not hard on these things or careless in their care. Upon investigation, I learned that the cost of repair/replacement from Sennheiser is nearly equal to the cost of a new set. I'm disappointed because the sound is really good. Duct tape to the rescue.
"Doesn't live up to the Senheiser name"

Relying on the great Senheiser name, I confidently recommended this purchase to a family member. When I took it home and tried it out... I was less than impressed. Maybe it's a lemon of the bunch or something, but sound quality has little depth. Also, if I try to play anything with deep bass, it begins distorting. The first 10 minutes out of the box, I kept on checking to make sure that I didn't miss a switch that allows for bass boost...The phones are also noisy when there is no signal going in- always a hiss. Maybe I am too used to using exceptional earphones (several from Senheiser I might add), but I doubt it.
On the plus side, it is very comfortable, and the folding design is very neat, and even comes with a case for the folded phones! But the case does not change the fact that Senheiser didn't do so well with this one. I would say if you are looking for a pair portable MP3 headphones, the PX 200 has a little edge over the stock Apple earbuds as far as sound quality goes, but the noise and level of distortion kicks it back. Have a look at other Senheiser phones. From my experience, I do not recommend these.
"Nice headphones for the price"

IMHO the sound quality provided by these headphones is excellent. They collapse down very easilty and can be stored/re-stored in the really cool case that they come in. They seem to be well made and are adjustable and very comfortable.
