Sennheisser HD201s, any good

Last pair of headphones died when the Hoover sucked up the cord mangling it in the process.

Looking for a new pair; not an audiophile, tone deaf and getting on a bit so tend not to hear the ends of the spectrum .  However as I use the computer to watch videos etc instead of watching the wife's shi^w crap on the telly I am looking for over ear, wear all day, comfortable ones.

  Reading about, the cheapest comfortable ones I can find is the Sennheisser 201s (these are ultra cheap probably have laughable sound production but then I am not looking for quality sound anyway).

   Anyone any knowledge of these, the reviews seem too good to be true ?

they HD201's were my first set of cans, I loved them! they survived getting caught on my dog and being dragged outside violently...
Because the the faux leather cups they did get a little hot after a few hours but I wouldn't say they're uncomfortable. 
they sound a little flat and don't have much low end, for the price point, they were a really good buy

I'm on my second pair and like them just fine (i broke the jack on my first pair). They're cheap but sound decent. I use them for recording and gaming too.
