Hello all! I have now been engaged a week (well at midnight tonight it will be a week lol) and I was wondering how often I should get my ring cleaned… Along with the protection plan they threw in lifetime cleanings, so my question is how often do you bees bring your Ering to be cleaned?
Oh and how long does it take? I hope they wouldn’t take my ring away for like a day to do this… lol so new to this!

@annasaf83: I have to get mine inspected at the store twice a year, so at least that often.

@strawbabies: This. And any time we end up near the jewelry store it’s from and the guy we bought it from is there. He’s more than happy to pop it in the cleaner for us. I usually just clean it at home, though.

I clean mine every other week. Inspections are about once a year for my e-ring (purchased from James Allen) and once every 4 months for the band (Ultra Diamond). The difference is due to the two stores differeing policies.

only if I need my ring to be inspected, which is probably going to be only once a year. otherwise, I just clean it at home with a toothbrush. I’m not too fussy about it.

I clean my ring once or twice a week, but I’ve been traveling lately, so it’s been neglected. I just use the cleaner the store gave me, as well as an extra soft bristle toothbrush and voila! Done.

I have to get it cleaned every 6 months for inspections, but with that being said, we will have been engaged 6 months next month & I’ve already had it professionally cleaned twice & I’m planning on going again in two weeks to get it cleaned before we take our engagement pictures.

I clean mine every week at home and a jeweller cleans it every 6 months when they check the stones (I have a lot of pavé in my set) 😉

I clean it at home maybe once a month and have it cleaned maybe once every 6 months at the jewelry store at the mall where Darling Husband always gets me presents (he ordered the ring online, but since we’re frequent customers at the mall store, they’re always happy to clean it).

I get mine done every 6 months when it is inspected. I clean it myself at home most everyday though with jewelery cleaner.

I have had mine for 4 months and have already had it professionally cleaned 3 times. It takes just a few minutes. My jeweler has told me stories of ladies brining their rings in once a week to get professionally cleaned!! I’m going to keep going in 1-2 months to get it cleaned. I’m a little obsessed as well. lol! I will clean it at home often too.

I’ve gotten mine cleaned probably every couple months. The jeweler said steam cleaning it would not hurt it so don’t be scared to bring it in whenever! Its free to get rings cleaned there so he encouraged me to come in more often!
