Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Other Opinion Comment: I have read the other reviews about the weak metal, and the fact that people can't put the ring back together. My husband bought this ring for me and I could not even take it apart. Puzzle rings in general are thinner so they break and bend easily if your not careful. My husband bought it a lil too small, so I had it resized... the jeweler didn't want to until I said that I didn't care about the fact that it would never come apart. I love it and it is a great sign of love between us. Customer Rating: Summary: An enjoyable piece Comment: While not an exceptional ring, this is still an enjoyable piece for fans of either the Claddagh or puzzle rings in general.
Both my wife and me wear a Claddagh for our wedding rings. The puzzle rings came this afternoon and while my wife hasn't dismantled hers just yet I simply couldn't wait. This, like most puzzle rings, is tricky and requires a certain amount of dexterity and patience. After playing with it for a couple of horus I succumbed and found a very useful video tutorial by Googling '4BDS Puzzle Ring Solution Video'
While I feel like I cheated some; the solution, once you've learned it, comes pretty readily to mind.
The only reason I held back on 5 stars is the metal bands have become somewhat warped in my frustrated gropings! The inside of the bands will appear damaged and tarnished - I imagine this ring may be silver plated. From other reviewers' mention of allergic reactions, don't be fooled in thinking this is a sterling silver ring.
Customer Rating: Summary: Watch out for sensitive skin Comment: I purchased this ring for my girlfriend for Christmas after she mentioned having a claddagh ring before that broke. I think it is a really cool design and thought she'd enjoy the fact that it is a puzzle ring. And while she was really excited and likes the ring a lot she can not wear it for long periods of time due to the fact that it causes her to get blisters on her finger due to something in the metal. After later doing research on this I learned that there is a sizable number of people allergic to nickel which I suspect is present in this ring. Customer Rating: Summary: Very Nice Ring Comment: This is my fave ring of all time. It comes with a string around it so it won't fall a part when you take it out of the box. Although, mine has to never come apart. It doesn't just fall apart like some of the looser knots do. I got a size 9 & it is a heavy ring so if you don't like heavy rings this one might not be for you.
I love this ring & the company has a video you can watch & learn to how to put it, & other puzzle rings, back together. The indviual bands are thin & can bend so you have to be nice it, but it is well worth the money. Customer Rating: Summary: Claddagh Puzzle Ring Comment: Nice ring for price. We have found the silver to be a little soft. Bends easily. The instructions on the Internet are not ring specific for this item, therefore we are afraid to even take it apart. Needs better instructions written for specific rings.
