I own an electric drumkit and wanted to make it completely silent by reducing the thumping noise of the kickpedal and hi-hat controller. At first I did not want to buy the noise eaters because of their high price. But I quickly found out that there were no other alternatives. Eventually after some hard thinking, I decided to buy the noise eaters.
When they were delivered to my house, they were surprisingly heavy and bigger than I expected. I could tell this was a quality product, but it still did not live up to the high price. After some testing I can confirm that the noise eaters were able to dampen the thump heard downstairs. Roland claims to reduce the noise by 75%, but in my experience it was not this big of a change. I would say it will help reduce the thump up to 50%. The noise eaters do not wobble as much as I imagined. The kickpad remained relatively stable.
Because of the high price of 26 EUR per piece, I do not think I would recommend this solution. The price is not worth it for what it does (or claims to do).

Expensive, but stops the downstairs neighbor's visits!
I use these under my hi-hat stand with my e-kit. They're a bit expensive, and can move a bit, especially with a lot of foot work, so you might need to adjust every so often. But, in conjunction with Noise Eaters for the pedals they stopped my downstairs neighbor from knocking at my door, so it's well recommended - I let myself practice even during late hours now, guiltless ;) Good investment considering they give me a much wider practice time window. You'll need a bunch of them plus the pedal NEs!
