Hi,
I’m trying to buy a wedding band to fit my 1.25 CTW engagement ring. (.75 center stone and two .50 side stones).
I wanted to know if the deal on James Allen is worth it versus Jared’s deal on their .50 CTW 5 stone wedding bands.
I read all your articles on if Jared’s is a good deal, if James Allen is a good service and weighed out the pros and cons but at the end of the day I still just don’t know if it’s worth getting a higher clarity and color is better than the Jared’s ring. I wanted to get your take on the two I’m looking at:

14K WHITE GOLD FIVE STONE WIRE BASKET RING ( 0.50 CTW.)
Thanks in advance!
Looking at the two rings you sent me, the difference in price is not that significant, but the difference in quality could be like night and day. James Allen uses high-quality melee diamonds for all their settings and whenever we’ve tested companies for pre-made jewelry (be it studs, pendants or fashion jewelry), JA’s quality has always been on top.
Awesome! I ended up buying the James Allen one!
Thank you!
That’s great news! I’m glad I could help you.
