Here is my honest take after owning one. I ordered from Charles & Colvard online. I would say yes, especially if you are on a budget. I have had zero problems so far.
This is totally normal. Mine did the same thing for the first month then settled.

I will give you the straight answer. I have heard good things about James Allen, but I personally used Charles & Colvard. I would say yes, especially if you are on a budget. I have had zero problems so far.
Not worth the risk in my experience. Spend a little more and buy from a real store.

Good thinking asking this before buying. I compared Charles & Colvard and Pandora before deciding. I asked my jeweler the same thing. He said it is safe for daily wear as long as you avoid harsh chemicals.

Honestly, it depends on a few things. I went with Tiffany on Etsy and saved a lot. I would say yes, especially if you are on a budget. I have had zero problems so far.
Short answer: no. I switched after a few months and never looked back. The upkeep was not worth it.

I have had mine for over two years now. I have heard good things about Charles & Colvard, but I personally used Amazon. Yes, I have had mine for two years and it still looks great. Just clean it regularly with soap and water.
I would say yes, especially if you are on a budget. I have had zero problems so far.
