Does anyone know of an affordable tool for cleaning diamonds like the pros do??? I'd like to get my wife something for her birthday to help maintain her diamond. She's a teacher and the chalk dust is constantly building up on her new ring. Does anybody know if this machine works well? http://www.jeweljet.com

I have an ultrasonic and a jeweljet. Love them both. Don't kill me here . . . but I don't have time to clean my ring everyday so I clean it about 2-3 times a week. It has only been a few weeks but I can always tell the difference when I clean the ring, it is so shiny. As long as there isn't something too delicate about the setting, using an ultrasonic followed by a steaming with the jewel jet would be a good way to clean a ring with chalk dust. Most PS women clean their rings everyday I think, which is what I would do if I had the time

If you could only choose one, the ultrasonic or jeweljet, which would it be? Which gives a better clean?

If you review the old threads, it seems that the ultrasonic is the cleaning tool of choice for most people, with the Sharper Image ultrasonic being a clear favorite. If you do have a lot of pave, be careful, don't put it on high, and don't use it everyday. You'll be fine as long as the pave is well done.

sorry, I don't have anything to add but I love your screen name I heard people like the one you posted and the sonic cleaner. Some in a thread I read had both and think they both clean great! Here is topic on the Jet http://www.pricescope.com/idealbb/view.asp?topicID=45988 http://www.pricescope.com/idealbb/view.asp?topicID=40194 and http://www.pricescope.com/idealbb/view.asp?topicID=43288 Sonic cleaner http://www.pricescope.com/idealbb/view.asp?topicID=34606 Skippy  "The only things that stand between a person and what they want in life are the will to try it, and the faith to believe it's possible" Rich Devos |

I do love my Sharper Image ultrasonic! Got mine refurbished and it's been over 2 years now, no problems!

I have the SI Ultrasonic and I LOVE it! I clean my ring every morning (sometimes at night too if I'm going out). I'm very anal about keeping it clean. I do notice, however, that even if I've just cleaned my ring, if I then have it steam cleaned (at a jewelry store) it makes a big difference (to me at least).

if I had to choose one and only one . . . I'd get the jewel jet and precede the steam cleaning with a rub down in soapy water, a cold water rinse and a HOT water soak for 10 minutes. The Ultrasonic just does all that in one go . . . there are a lot of threads on this so doing a search will give you lots of opinions.

I chose to have only one and chose the JewelJet, and it works great. It's also quicker and uses no chemicals.  |
