Here is my honest take after owning one.

My Setup

I wear mine every day, including to the gym and to sleep. After a year and a half it still looks brand new.

What to Watch Out For

  • Buy from a reputable seller, not a random listing
  • Ask about the color grade before you order
  • Get a certificate of authenticity

My only regret is not sizing up slightly. It fits snug now that winter is coming.

Short answer: I compared Brilliant Earth and Blue Nile before deciding. This is totally normal. Mine did the same thing for the first month then settled.

Not worth the risk in my experience. Spend a little more and buy from a real store.

After trying several options myself, I went with Amazon on Etsy and saved a lot. Short answer: no. I switched after a few months and never looked back. The upkeep was not worth it.
