There’s a Sneaky Way to Save Up to 58% Off Premium Bose Headphones and Earbuds

Save more than $200 on this temporary sale of top-rated refurbished products.

Bose makes some truly excellent headphones and earbuds, with several of its pairs earning a spot on CNET’s list of the best headphones for 2025. They certainly don’t come cheap, however, with some models listing for $400 or even more. Discounts pop up occasionally, but shopping for refurbished models is the way to go for the steepest savings.

If you’re on the hunt, take a peep at sale we just spotted at Woot offering a selection of certified refurbished Bose headphones and earbuds for as much as 58% off. This sale runs through Nov. 3, but there’s a limited supply available, and it’s likely inventory will sell out before then. We definitely recommend acting fast if you don’t want to miss out on these savings.

It’s important to note that these headphones are listed as certified refurbished, which per Woot’s description is «as close to new as you can get without technically being ‘new,’ but may show very slight signs of a previous life.» Regardless, they’ve all been inspected and ensured to be in full working condition, and are backed by a one-year limited Bose warranty.

If you’re a fan of over-ear headphones, these noise-cancelling QuietComforts are a steal at just $150. They support high-fidelity audio, boast an impressive 24-hour battery life, and this deal saves you over $200 compared to a new pair.

Or, if you prefer the convenience of earbuds, you can snag a first-gen pair of QuietComfort Ultra buds for 46% off, or for $160. They support spatial audio for seriously immersive sound, and have top-notch noise-cancelling capabilities.

There’s also the Bose Ultra Open earbuds, which are designed to let you enjoy your music without sacrificing awareness. They’re clip-on rather than in-ear buds, and are great for working out with an IPX4 sweat-resistance rating. You can get this refurbished pair for just $160, a $139 discount.
