3.0 out of 5 stars
helpful, but not quite as nice as I was hoping,
This review is from: Ring Snuggies - The Original Ring Adjusters - Assorted Sizes (Jewelry)
I do end up using one of the ring snuggies that I ordered, but it isn't quite as nice as I was hoping it would be. (1) The PVC is pretty stiff, so it took some practice before I was able to get the ring snuggie onto the ring. (2) The description says that the ring snuggie "can be applied AFTER the ring is on the finger." In my case, the ring snuggie can ONLY be applied after the ring is on the finger because the PVC is so thick. (3) Even with the "variety of shapes and sizes", I still had to cut one of the ring snuggies in half to get one that was appropriate size for my ring. (4) Ring snuggies look like small cylinders made of PVC. When the description says "a variety of shapes and sizes", it means that the hole down the middle of the cylinder comes in a variety of different sizes. The cylinder wall is the same thickness for all of the snuggies in the package. I would like them better if some of the cylinders had thinner PVC walls. Other than those aspects, the ring snuggies are just what they advertise to be. The package arrived on time. The ring snuggie keeps my ring in place. The price was good.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Very pleasantly surprised!,
By Barb S. (NJ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ring Snuggies - The Original Ring Adjusters - Assorted Sizes (Jewelry)
I was skeptical about Ring Snuggies after reading all the negative reviews, but I ordered it anyway - and was very pleasantly surprised. These Snuggies work great! They are easy to apply when the ring is either on or off your finger. With the different sizes in the package, I was easily able to find a perfect fit for my two very different rings. If you use the correct size for your ring (very important), they stay in place and will never fall off. They are virtually unnoticeable and perfectly comfortable.
I have arthritis in my hands and enlarged knuckles. Also, since my fingers are sometimes swollen as well, the rings fit better on some days than on others. Therefore, resizing is obviously not an option for me. Being able to apply and remove the Snuggies as needed is a very convenient option for me - and one that permanent resizing would eliminate. An argument could be made that the Snuggies are too expensive for what you're getting - a few pieces of plastic tubing. But the last time I had a gold ring resized at the jeweler's, it cost me over $30, so being able to resize two rings for less than $10 definitely makes this an affordable alternative. Bottom line - Ring Snuggies are absolutely worth trying.

Creative use of a tubing,
This review is from: Ring Snuggies - The Original Ring Adjusters - Assorted Sizes (Jewelry)
I laud the "inventor/s" of the Ring Snuggies. That is a very creative use, they thought of, of a PVC tubing. These Ring Snuggies are nothing more than PVC tubing that has been cut into short pieces and then cut on one side lengthwise. For those who have access to flexible tubings (PVC, Tygon, etc.) of any kind (those working in labs), you can cut your own PVC tubing. Even if you don't work in a lab, these flexible tubings are also sold in hardwares and similar stores. I don't know how much they cost in hardwares, but when we buy these flexible tubings in the lab, they cost less than $1 per foot.
And, yes, the advice by other reviewers of heating the Ring Snuggies works. That works for most flexible tubing. Heating (place in hot or boiling water) them up will make them more pliable, thus easier to fit over your ring. It's practical but not very comfortable to have a tubing digging into the underside of your finger. In addition, if you wear your ring all the time (gardening, cooking, washing, in the shower, etc.), dirt/scum will eventually accumulate inside the tubing. Of course, if you make your own Ring Snuggies at $1 per foot, it's not a big deal to throw dirty Ring Snuggies weekly or every few weeks. I think I prefer liquid silicone that's applied on the inside of the ring. There's no hard thing protruding and digging into my finger. There's no tiny space between the ring and adjuster (since the silicone is painted over the inside of the ring) that will accumulate dirt.
