Help Deciding Between Cushions

[riss]

These are all 1.7 - 2.0 carat hybrid cushions in my price range. I don't know if H vs G color matters for a cushion this big or if any of the inclusions will be noticeable. Appreciate any feedback!

Not a cushion expert, but of these options, I dislike the ASET on the ED one (and it looks a little hazy to me), and the BN one says "clarity based on clouds that aren't shown", which is potentially a problem in SI1 or SI2 grades. Something about the first JA option rubs me the wrong way--like too many of the facets "go dark" at once?

I'm concerned the 2nd to last option will have a window or have leakage.

My personal favorite is the last one, by far. But again, I am NOT a cushion expert by any means. Hopefully others who are more used to looking at cushions can chime in soon.

Can you get ASET images for any of the JA options?

Thanks! I'll post the ASETs I have soon. What don't you like about the ASET on the ED one?

You see all that white... leaky, leaky, leaky.

First corresponds with first link. Second corresponds with fourth link.

So you can't get any more images for the last (5th) option?
