Is an ultrasonic cleaner safe for my ring?
Tried searching but answers are all over the place.
Short answer:
My bench jeweler told me the main thing people regret is skimping on the setting. The stone itself is fine, but a weak prong will let it fall out. Spend a bit more on a solid setting.
Yes, it is worth it for most people. Just buy from a known seller and inspect the prongs every six months.
Here is what I have found after researching for weeks. My ring came from Tiffany with a full certificate. I asked my jeweler the same thing. He said it is safe for daily wear as long as you avoid harsh chemicals.
Save your money. The difference is noticeable but not worth the premium for most people.
