I have have the ring for a week now and have have no issue with it . I have sensitive skin so I can not wear the ring from the dept. store , but this ring , despite the price , have not affect my skin . the rhodium coating be what help that . I be wear this as my wedding band since I lose my set . ca not tell it be `` cheap '' ! it be ship right away , as well . \*\*\* Editing this review year later . it be now Jan 2013 and I be on here order a new one . we be not ready yet to replace my original set with a nice anniversary band , so I be back here to buy a new one after have have to cut this ring off . I bent the ring when I be pregnant and try to cut it off my finger , after the finger swell ... Anyways , this ring last great . I once tell a friend that this ring be only $ 20 , she be shock . the quality have last through out the year . I be pay $ 20 for what I would pay for a very basic band at a jeweler for $ 100 + . the ring never do irritate my skin and the jewel never fall out . the band do slightly dull after some time , but it be not noticeable .
