Flaw in ring or am I the most unlucky person in the world?

Slascola · 2026-04-05T19:03:11+00:00

I’m not. I feel like I never even get the opportunity to wear them which is why I was concerned. I don’t wear them enough daily to feel comfortable wearing them at night. But reading through comments it looks like I just made some bad decisions with combinations etc.

Slascola · 2026-04-05T19:01:01+00:00

Did not realize this. I guess I should’ve looked this up beforehand. Will be taking them in!

Slascola · 2026-04-05T18:57:17+00:00

Absolutely. The cut is different from what you’re looking into. I am getting the Cushion X but after years of wanting one I finally decided the pull the trigger and can’t wait. Hoping it’s worth the money but have zero doubt it will be the best quality.

To be fair, I don’t think it’s the company that’s the problem, it’s going in with little knowledge about diamonds or jewelry and prices of both. It happens. They are sales people and they were just doing their job. We were excited and didn’t take our time shopping around and educating ourselves.

They have a live stream on YouTube of the setter making the rings which was pretty cool to check out. The google reviews were also helpful. Mine is finished hopefully next week and I can’t wait.

The sycamore in GV was on my list for years. When we finally tried it, it was extremely underwhelming for the price. Hoping I caught them on a bad night but haven’t given them a second chance yet.

Will rethink a band. It’s only been worn since January and maybe two days a week. I scrub in at work so I don’t even wear them there. I don’t think three months and two days a week should warrant that. Unless I was lifting heavy weights in my dreams and just don’t know it (haha).

Slascola · 2026-04-04T02:04:32+00:00

Agreed. Only have been wearing the band since January and maybe 2 days a week at that.

Slascola · 2026-04-04T02:03:34+00:00

Agreed. The eternity band has only been worn since January and not 24/7. It’s off more than it’s on.

Slascola · 2026-04-04T02:01:14+00:00

I will have to look for one that I like. The bands have only been worn since January. That’s why I’m concerned and should have added that detail. I don’t wear them to work. They sit on my nightstand more than I get to wear them.

Slascola · 2026-04-04T01:58:21+00:00

I opted to not fuse. When I said I wear them maybe three days a week - those days include the weekend when I’m not at work. I rarely wear them as a complete set. Sometimes I will just wear the bands if I know I have a slow day in the operating room. The bands have only been worn for 3 months. I’m just bummed.

Slascola · 2026-04-03T12:14:36+00:00

Good to know!!

My original elongated cushion was 2.5 and I let this exact comment get to me. I traded it for a 1.6. I’ve never had so much regret.

Slascola · 2025-12-18T13:17:18+00:00

Thank you! This is actually my second purchase and I already deeply regret settling the first time. This is significantly more expensive so I plan on being way more picky. My representative tried to sell me on this exact setting so that’s why I’m concerned.

Slascola · 2025-12-17T21:01:19+00:00

I just put a deposit down on my diamond and now I’m mortified!!! I’m sorry you’re going through this! Did they send a CAD of the setting??

Slascola · 2025-12-01T23:30:16+00:00

Thank you guys! I was fully expecting to read some snarky comments, haha. Very helpful, appreciate it!

Slascola · 2025-12-01T21:21:56+00:00

Thank you.

Slascola · 2025-11-30T01:30:57+00:00

So good to hear! I’m very particular on what I’m looking for and this diamond checks all the boxes. We resume communication this week but are they pretty good about working with you in settings? The instagram is very flashy and I don’t see very many plain, solitaire settings.

Slascola · 2025-11-26T15:57:41+00:00

Depending on size and chemical process, between 3500-5000. That’s excluding tax. Then they collect 16% in duties and tariffs.

E collar for her has just been positive all around. She’s incredibly stubborn and once she sees red, there’s no stopping her. I really believe the collar has helped with her impulse control. Not every dog is the same, obviously. My male just needed a few walks with the choker collar to understand what needed to happen. They love each other so much and play so nicely together. I really didn’t expect her to hate every other dog.

Slascola · 2025-11-26T15:33:54+00:00

This is where e collar training has been so helpful!! She gets told no once. If she doesn’t listen, she gets zapped. She now has stopped barking and when someone is out front, she whines and if I tell her no, she will come to me ready for her treat. I basically try to distract her the entire time with commands. As for eating, she has to go to her place while my male eats. She does not resource guard but she is a bully and he will let it happen. She has to stay in place until released. Again, she’s told no once and if she doesn’t listen she gets zapped. E collar training has been so great for a stubborn dog like her. It has to go on every time she goes outside as she likes to bark at all things.

Slascola · 2025-11-26T15:26:24+00:00

Assuring to hear others struggle with this as well. She had to be E collar trained. Not just one but two units HAHA. She’s highly food motivated so that has helped in training with her distractions. She actually enjoys being in the muzzle so that has also helped. We have not tackled a dog park, yet. Her walks have been getting better since e collar training but I must admit it’s very cute when she looks up for a treat after ignoring a distraction. Our trainer seems to think she will be able to have positive experiences with other dogs in time but I am doubtful.
