Hey guys. As you can see there are a lot of trolling comments about these rings. I'm not sure why people are so offended, but these juvenile comments don't matter to me, and shouldn't matter to you either. They're great rings; if you pick one up and love it that's great. If not I totally respect your opinion, and thanks for watching.
Its not trolling, its just a dumb idea. I'm sure yoy put a lot of thought into your product but i just dont see the purpose. You're trying to replace gold with a rubber band.
If your doing anything that could cause an avulsion you shouldn't be wearing any jewelry anyway. Is there any benefit to using a silicone ring other than making your hand look more feminine and pretty? Whats its function? I just don't understand.
As a former paramedic years ago I responded to a high school, student was somehow engaged in horseplay at check board he slipped and fell down his hand caught the tray and bottom eraser metal tray holder area his class ring caused quite a mess to his ring finger. Ring avulsions and/or degloving injuries aren’t a joke! We carried ring cutters and most they were pretty useless on bigger or bulkier rings. My sodium retention and finger swelling lately has me searching for flexible silicone rings. I am quickly becoming overwhelmed comparing them all!!!!
Everyone commenting on this video saying these are a waste are just being close minded. You can't deadlift without scratching your metal ring, you cant grapple with a metal ring, and I'm sure other people have separate reasons. Just open your mind and realize everyone doesnt live the same life you do.
Dang, I can’t believe some of the comments on this thread! I’ve tried both Qalo and Groove Life and I definitely agree the Groove rings are so much better. I’m willing to pay the extra $5-$10 for a nice low-profile ring. For all the other people who say it’s worthless to buy because you just shouldn’t wear a ring: Some of us are happily married and want to display that, and also this video is obviously not for you, so move along :)
Its good to show that you're happily married, but its not safe to wear a metal (or any kind) of ring to a job site. Have you seen pictures of what happens when your ring gets caught in a grinder? Yeah, not good... Also that's a 100 to 10,000 dollar ring just ruined. If it were me I'd ask groove to make a fancier wedding ring, the ones they have kinda suck on the aesthetics side.
TY for the review!! I am currently waiting for a Groove Life ring in the mail, and am considering purchasing a Qalo ring. TY again for the honest hands on review!!
I'm a man who REALLY works hard in civil and military construction in a region of very high humidity (Brazilian Amazon) and I bought four Chinese rings for less than US$0.50 and I wear them 24 hours a day even swimming... In the first week there was even a region of peeling skin (just like an expensive 22k gold ring also gets...), it doesn't get that way anymore with use and I don't see why paying more than US$1.00 for a silicone ring because ALL ARE ABSOLUTELY EQUAL. Spend money wherever you want! I even thought about buying a more expensive silicone ring, but as deliveries weren't available in my region, I decided to test the most beautiful "xing-ling" ring I could find and... I really liked it!! Besides, as a man, I don't think it's good to wear things that are so ornate and full of Don't-Me-Touch, I need a nice, resistant and sober color like black, olive green, night blue or gray. Why pay dearly for something I can buy 4 x US$0.50 with free shipping???
There was an incident at my work where a guy was jumping out of the back of a truck and caught his wedding ring on an edge. It de-gloved his finger, meaning it pulled the tissue off leaving only the bone attached to his hand. I think these will become pretty routine to see people wearing given incidents like that aren't completely uncommon.
I just decided to give the Groove Life a try. I have seen this for a while now and after many years of not using my wedding ring for different reasons I am getting one. My wife and I have a good relationship we do not need to flash our weeding rings everywhere we go, actually I haven't wear mine in a long time (10 year) mainly because I play percussion (congas, bongos and such) and metal rings get in the way, also because when I workout and I started doing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai so there is no way I can use a metal ring. People complain these are overprice (yes) but I rather pay $35 for a cool rubber band than $2K for a metal ring that is worth $200 right outside the store.
Awesome comment. I agree 100%. I totally see how a metal ring would be a problem with instruments or martial arts; had not thought of that. I hope you like your ring.
A wedding band is NOT A FAD, these rings fill in very nicely for some people’s expensive rings. Great idea An I personally can say groove rings are a great quality product with an unbeatable warranty.
I want to buy a silicone ring because I am in the military and when I am out in the field I don't want to wear a Tungsten ring, especially if a workplace injury occurs. Heck, I know that when Im on ruck marches because of the weight on my shoulders (im not quite sure the science behind it) my blood circulation is affected in some way and my fingers tend to swell up. I want to wear a ring because I want to love my soon to be wife with a symbol of our marriage everywhere I go. If I can wear one into the field that would be a huge plus to me.
The groove ring is awesome. I've had mine for a while and love it. I guess some people are just looking for a way to entertain themselves with their own comments, but these are good quality and very comfortable. Buying my wife one now...
or you could be looking for a way to waste your money, if so I gave some bread ties for sale at $19.99 per tie, then I was thinking of starting to sell the rocks in my garden, interested.
This "fad" has been going for years people. When I joined the army in 2011 people were wearing silicone rings already so I highly doubt this is a fad. I just bought one because my $1500 ring kept dropping the diamonds and it is actually right now getting fixed again. I got a silicone ring for work, workouts and just to wear around the house now and use my gold ring for going out with my wife on our dates or stuff like that. Never was a fan of the silicone rings but gave it a shot and oh man. It feels great, looks good and you even forget you have a ring on. I recommend people to try one before judging. Calling people names because of what they like and it's not your style is just childish.
Totally makes sense Derrick. I definitely understand there are special occasions when a traditional ring feel more appropriate. For day to day stuff the silicone rings are a more practical and comfortable alternative. Thanks for the contribution.
With doing these rings reviewers usually forget a very viable reason for wearing silicone rings; when having long term medical issues ie lupus, M.S., M.D., arthritis, (awful horrid rheumatoid arthritis) cancer tx, preggers, autonomic nueropathy, these rings are very appreciated since the medical tx of these situations may cause swelling or intense pain that prohibit wearing any traditional metal rings. my Embnn rings are so important to me; i miss my original 💍 ring, but the idea (for us) just wearing a ring is what matters. My husband wears his out of respect and consideration to me; i am the one who can't wear my traditional ring any longer after 31y. He took his off and switched to these the same day i got mine while in an IL hospital for chemo tx. ☕ It really matters as a statement of our marriage and believes. M. IL.
Really excellent point 😀 I am actually a nurse, but had not thought about this. I'm sorry to hear if you have had some (or all) of medical issues, but I'm glad these rings help in a small way.
I was on the checkout page of Qalo, because of your old Qalo review video.. now im glad I decided to do one last scan for reviews. It costs more, and will have to get it shipped internationally, but maybe the extra costs of Groove Life will be worth it
As a mechanic, if brakeclean hits my qalo ring it instantly makes it expand and I have to remove it for several days till the material returns to normal. Gonna check the groove out next.
Mine and my wife rings are supposed to be unbreakable but they broke .... So we’re going to give this a shot. I love how many options you have with them: I’m not the richest person alive but not the poorest either, it seems to me that people have a lot more hatful things to say than nice respect things so thanks for your video man. I hope we like these things. Lol I love the way they look. Always wanted a black ring. Looks good on pale skin I think.
Nice. I hope that you like them. Groove has sales on pretty much every holiday. There's a lot of haters, but it can still be good conversation, and I don't take them seriously. I hope your rings work out 😎
I work in the HVAC field and cannot wear standard wedding bands for fear of my finger being burned off. So, silicone rings are awesome! I didn’t even buy a traditional wedding band. I just have two silicone ones while my wife has a traditional one. Highly recommend
fuzzypandas89 conductivity, I’ve seen guys that got their fingers burned while working with the wiring inside a a/c system before. It depends on the type of ring and what it’s made out of, but gold is very conductive.
My boyfriend got me 7 different rings from Enso. They are my engagement/wedding rings. He wanted me to be able to have the option to mix and match my rings. I have three of the stackable rings now. He used as my engagement set for when he Proposed to me. I have 4 more coming in the mail this week. One of them is from the infinity collection and it’s also engraved. But I Don’t Know what the engraving says yet.
Hey better life reviews you should try out fixate designs xf-8 x vent rings they are thinner and breathable I have 3 qalo and 3 fixate perfect for my job
Thanks. Im constantly taking my wedding band off at work due to the risk of burning my finger or causing an arc or worst shredding my finger. I hate not being able to where my ring at work. My wife hates it too. She says I'm not "representing" lol. Didn't really know which silicone ring to get. But now I think I know which one and she can be happy now that I can "represent".
I am looking to get a ring. As a fireman I never wear my ring at work, but then usually forget to wear it off duty. I am wondering if the thin Groove ring would work better to keep the finger dryer, even more than the original wide version. I am curious how it would look on a guy's hand.
I checked out the "thin" ring collection on the Groove Life website. I didn't see any pictures of them on guys. The thin is not available on Amazon; there would probably be pictures there. In my opinion the thin would probably be a little better for drying, but would look kind of small on guys hands, especially a fireman. I love my Groove Original Ring, and wear it almost everywhere, but I have not tried the thin. Are you intending to wear it fighting fires? I think the silicone would definitely be better than metal, but still would melt at a certain temperature. Then again, you would have bigger problems at that point.
I would wear it 100% of the time. I agree, if the ring melts on my finger at 500 degrees...shit has gone really bad. We have the same discussion when guys bring up the "I don't want to wear my synthetic underwear in case it melts". Thank you for the response. I will try to find them in a store to see in person.
Haha. Definitely. Don't stress too much; they have some good sizing guides, and will exchange if you get it wrong. groovelife.com/pages/silicone-ring-sizing-guide
Wow, I didn't get far in the comments but I can see people are being very opinionated about this for some reason. I am happily married and have a beautiful wedding ring but it is very expensive, flashy and big... I love to wear it but its not convenient for my work as a fitness instructor and beekeeper. I am always sweating teaching classes and practicing hot yoga and would have to take it off for work as it just gets in the way and I would be so upset if I lost my ring or forgot is someplace at work. However unfortunately working in fitness people can make unwanted advances if they see no ring and think maybe you are single so I got a Qalo ring for most of my usual daily activities.I just got it today and wore it all day and think it should work well for what I wanted it for. Thanks for the review I will check out the groove life ones now too!
Holly. Thanks for sharing. Yes. People are very opinionated, but I'm glad that the Qalo ring is working as a solution for you; you're definitely the kind of person these rings are perfect for.
Good question. You can wear the rings for whatever purpose you want. They can be casual, or to signify marriage. They could be worn on other fingers if you are concerned about the meaning. They offer several fun and custom rings (i.e. sports teams), which would probably be worn in a more casual sense.
Thanks for this review. I am about to make my first purchase of a silicon ring for work. On another note, can you tell me what kind of watch is that you're wearing and where did you purchase it?
Nice! No problem. The watch is a Garmin Epix; I bought mine on Ebay for $400 a few years ago. It was down around $200 on Amazon, but is now closer to $400.
Check out the sizing sheet link in the description. I personally go down by one to two sizes for the traditional Groove rings, which are more stretchy.
My wife and I used the Groove cheatsheet when we purchased our rings. Both of us luckily got the correct size our first order. Been wearing the ring for four days straight with no finger discoloration.
I workout 5 times and week and am a mechanic, can't wait for this ring to arrive in the post... Also to all the haters, open your mind, not everyone is a pencil pusher.
"Open your mind" you mean don't be practical and waste your money. If you're working, just take it off. If someone flirts with you, tell them you're married.
I have been wearing a #QALO Ring for almost 2 years without taking it off at all, I swim very often and have never, ever had an issue with water getting trapping underneath. I have also had it replaced free of charge when it broke after a year, and I am very active! They also have "THE FOREVER WARRANTY" that applies to amazon orders as well.
Sorry. This got held for review. This is all I could find on the Qalo warranty: help.qalo.com/hc/en-us/articles/214788103-Lifetime-Warranty-on-our-Rings-and-Dog-Identification-Tags. This says they will replace the ring one time. I remember this being different previously. I'm glad your ring is working out well; they are both good rings, just different.
Desn D. They definitely do break, and are less harsh overall. Here's the best I can find now: Groove Ring force to break: bit.ly/2vGZbCi Video of another ring breaking: ruclips.net/video/3SJ2fhq7-_k/видео.html
I don't have a problem with silicone rings, or people wearing silicone rings. What I have a problem with is a company, like Groove Ring, who think that charging $30 dollars for a piece of silicone is a fair price. You can get similar silicone rings, with great reviews, from Wish.com for $1-$2 dollars. I just feel like the mark up is completely unfair for consumers, but hey, it's not my money being spent.
I bought an Qolo ring a Hibbets sports store I wear a size 10 and that the size Qolo ring I got it fits perfect. I just ordered the try on set from groove life and I'm gonna see how they feel and work i almost had my finger ripped of a few times with my metal band and I will never go back to metal again.
That's awesome. It's definitely great that you can try on Groove rings to get the right size. That's crazy; I've haven't had that problem personally, but would definitely like to keep my fingers 🤕. Best of luck. Let me know which you like better.
If that is the case your an idot. For that to happen to you more than once than you are at fault not the machine. Go bake a cake and get out of the shop where men who have half a brain still know to respect the machine and follows the tool instruction manual that clearly tells you how to avoid personnel Injury.
Pretty sure the problem most people have is trying to represent a lifetime commitment with these super sturdy rubber vape tank bands . (just screams commitment)
Pretty sure the diamond industry (and many others) formulated a master advertising plan over many years to trick you into thinking you can't be married without them.
@@BetterLifeReviews Im gonna say the same thing to you as I did to adam from adam ruins everything. Wedding bands were first seen in Egypt in about 4000bce and while I agree that diamonds are a joke (excluding some legitimately 1 off natural color variants like red), a diamond dosent make a wedding ring. There are plenty of precious and semi precious stones available and essentially only diamonds are monopolized by a few major producers. Maybe before you try and defame jewelers/miners/cutters and their work look into how difficult certain things actually are too find..... a perfect example being Montana sapphire (maybe 30g of a kilo of rough will be able to cut above a carat stone) so nobody is supprised when 1ct+ stones of that source pull a premium
@@SushikiIIer Wow. Serious response. I won't claim to know the in's and out's of the jewelry industry. This is an endless debate with many factors, but I see your points, and you have my respect for providing a valid rebuttal.
Better Life Reviews Oh Lancaster, my cousin lives there haven’t been in a while. I’m from Philly. On and I Just bought the groove life ring. Thanks for the review!
Great video buddy... I’ll be showing the wife as soon as she gets home! My biggest complaint about the ring I wear now is that my fingers hurt! I can’t wear it all day, really no more then like 7-8 hours before my fingers hurt and I take it off... (She doesn’t like that) So hopefully this ring will fix the issue! I’m very hopeful it works out... I will let you know when I get it and if it works for me... Thanks, BIG-D (NORTHERN CALI)
Shit, this ring is perfect for me! I’m always a safety first kinda guy so Im without my wedding ring quite often. Problem is, the bitches just flock to me when I don’t have it on! It’s not their fault I’m a sexy mfer. But now that I’ve found this, I can’t think of any activity I couldn’t do with one of these on, which is great because I really hate having that fight with my wife.
I got a Zeus ring by Groove Life a few weeks ago. Good quality. Even better quality than my other silicone ring by Barbell. I like silicone rings. It gives a finger a break from metal rings. I own a Tungsten Carbide ring. However, I only wear it on special occasions.
Definitely a safer choice than any metal ring for people working in certain conditions. One example being mechanics. I am sure those who have experienced ring avulsion probably wish they had something like these on instead of metal... and Jimmy just had a freak accident, it can happen to anyone. Plus IMHO, good marriages hinge on more than just a ring... Great review!!

@@BetterLifeReviews No I was saying if you feel we are crazy for buying rubber rings then maybe you'll feel better saying you bought a extended warranty and the ring was free. I just bought my first groove rings and they are really growing on me.
I wonder if everyone commenting realizes those fancy rings you buy from the jewelry store immediately lose their value when you walk out with it. What's so smart about trading $2000 for $1000? It's a rock/metal that serves no function. I'd rather be out $25 then hundreds/thousands of dollars lol. People don't realize those jewellers make money which means the customer is losing much more.
I agree that real rings lose a lot of value. I'd understand the argument to not wear a ring at all. But anyone buying these kinds of things are being ripped off way more than someone buying a gold ring. Do you realize this "ring" costs literally 2 cents to make, just like the plastic ring you get from the kids quarter machines? At least gold has inherent value. Plastic doesn't. You couldn't pay someone to take a silicone band from you. If you want to make a statement about commitment without as much money, get a tattoo around your ring finger.
@@BetterLifeReviews I can see that. I'm sorry for my manners. I myself don't see any real use for this product, besides it looking cool and wanting everyone to know you're married as you do busy work.
The problem I see with these is they are whats they word I'm looking for temporarily. There is a reason why metal rings have lasted thousands of years. Rubber no matter how good it is does not last. Just look at the tires on a car.
rascalMatt17 yes that is why I made a whole statement saying how these are not long lasting.... Guessing you didn't learn what an obvious statement means..
I totally disagree, their customer service is amazing and so are their rings. This tool advertises for Groove and everything he says about Qalo rings is not true so this is definitely not an honest review.
People crying about the price, think of it like this. You buy cheap condoms which you are going to use for a few minutes and throw them away. Let one break and see how much 18 years of child support and lawyers cost. I'm buying one because I dont want a finger ripped off or get zapped by 4160 volts from 10 feet away! Dont want one? Then dont buy one. To each his own!
The markup on these is like 30,000% - people are buying them because they're not very bright and it's a fad, you can find similar products for 1/25 the cost or more
This "fad" has been going for years. When I joined the army in 2011 people were wearing silicone rings already so I highly doubt this is a fad. I just bought one because my $1500 ring kept dropping the diamonds and it is actually right now getting fixed again. Never was a fan of the silicone rings but gave it a shot and oh man.

Derrick Cruz- WELL SAID GOOD SIR! I CANT BELIEVE ALL THE SALTY HATERS IN THIS COMMENT SECTION! IM TOTALLY ORDERING ONE TONIGHT WHEN MY WIFE GETS HOME! ITS AN AWESOME PRODUCT THAT IS MUCH SAFER THEN MY PLATINUM/DIAMONDS GETTING CAUGHT AND BREAKING MY FINGER OFF! OR LOSING $10Gs ALL AT ONCE! ALL THESE OTHER GUYS ARE IDIOTS... BIG-D (NORTHERN CALI)
I tried a qalo ring and it was alright just idk just dont wanna wear some cheap rubber ring. I spend a lot of money on a nice gold ring and just cant bring my self to not wear it. I have haven't had an issue with my gold band and while these silicone rings are a great idea its just not for me! Women wear nice gold diamond rings with no issue and to wear a cheap rubber ring that symbolizes my love for my wife is just disrespectful! There isnt anything wrong with a good quality gold or silver tungsten ring!!
Thanks for a well though out, rather than offensive comment. I think this is somewhat a matter of convention, and somewhat a matter of personal choice. For me silicone rings are a more comfortable, less abrasive, expressive & safer way to still express that I am married. My wife actually bought me my first silicone ring because I was having trouble with a rash and discomfort associated with my cobalt ring. She is happy when I wear the silicone ring, and recently got her own that she wears to the gym. It can be a compliment to a metal ring if you want that, or if you think it appears unprofessional. I'm not sure why so many people watch the review if they feel so strongly about silicone rings, but I appreciate the discussion and views. If you go to the Groove Ring website you will see that a lot of people do in fact purchase these rings. You could say they are expensive for rubber, but there are differences in quality and design among rings. Metal rings are also very expensive for what they are, and diamond ring prices are just insulting clever marketing over time. However, to each their own, and thank you for your opinion.
Appreciate it! I do see the logic i mean it gets caught you will prolly just loose the ring and you can get another one. At the end of the day do what makes you happy and fits your lifestyle and maybe one day ill try it again idk. Great video way to be very professional and understanding of why one wouldn't wear a silicone ring!! Ill give yall a like!
Honestly this is going To be my choice because of my profession, I work in the oilfield, so the money isn't the issue, keepn my didgets is lol had friends loose their fingers out here and I Wana keep all mine
Seems to be a pretty common opinion if you read the comments. I love mine, so does my wife, and a lot of active people buy and love these rings. It's a personal decision, and you are free to have your opinion.
@@BetterLifeReviews No. The problem is you act like non metal rings are new or these are hard to make. They are not as long as you have the lazer equipment.. I've done similar with wood. They are advertising something that happens to less than .01% of humans on a level passed extremely minor discomfort. They are a fucking gimmick for morons. You're literally devoting your life to silicone rings they've had for kids for 30 fucking years. Go put these rings with your silly band collection and enjoy a short fad. Literally brain dead marketing taking advantage of below average IQ diet eaters. Smh. 90% of their designs are unseeable unless the ring is off.. I picture these fucking mongoloids walking around taking their ring off to show everyone their rings THAT HAS BEEN OUT FOR YEARS. It's literally not practical for 99.99% of people anymore than a fucking ring from a toy dispenser for 25 cent is. It's a 10 year old type fad for adults. Pathetic.
It's a Garmin Epix. A little older by now, but still one of the only watches with GPS, mapping, advanced running dynamics, etc. If you can find it on sale it's a steal compared to the $800-900 you would pay for a Fenix with similar capabilities.
@@tesladrew2608 my 7 year old daughter has cooler rubber bands than that one give me a break lol... her's cost less too and are just as durable. Only different is they aren't marketed to dupes. lol What can I say.. a sucker is born every minute!
@@miraak542 that has nothing to do with my point? So that's a logical fallacy. Your education is showing and it isn't pretty. Also silicone is technically called Silicone Rubber just so you know. Silicone and Rubber are both elastomers. So yea she has rubber and silicone bands etc big deal. So essentially your comment is a logical fallacy (Red Herring) and also not to mention a weak criticism as no one cares if it's rubber or silicone. That doesn't help your argument (or lack of one) So try again. Your education is showing and it is definitely not pretty.

@First Last I've been wearing the same ring for 20yrs and nothing ever happened. My great-grandma wore hers for 70yrsor more and nothing ever happened to her.
I wear four stainless steel rings on each hand for a total of 8. They are awesome rings and they are really comfortable. I would never replace my steel rings with cheap silicone rings. I can't imagine anybody else making the switch neither because it doesn't make sense.
Better Life Reviews All my rings fit the same theme. The eight rings I wear are the Batman logo, Superman logo, Green Lantern logo, The flash logo, Legion of Superheros, Spider-Man face, Deadpool logo and Star Wars logo rings. They were made by a company called Sales One and sold at the time by one of their subsidiary companies Inox. They no longer sell the DC rings but they still sell Marvel and Star Wars jewelry. I also wear a Batman bracelet on my right wrist and a Star Wars one on my left. I bought a bunch of necklaces from them to. They have DC, Marvel and Star Wars pendants on the chains. Bodyvibe which is another one of Sales Ones subsidiary companies is selling the the jewelry last I checked.
@rascalMatt17 doesnt make sense. You're in a hospital around all those germs. Germs stick to rubber. You cant clean it like you can metal. I bet it starts to stink and eveything. Full of bacteria
Im just confused how a regular wedding band is a problem for a man. Its low profile just like this rubber band ring except its gold. Gold will last through almost anything (heat, cold, dirt, oil, etc) this rubber band wont. I also see people saying their ring can get caught in something.... how??? What??? What can get under your wedding band that cant also get under this rubber ring? Its not like men wear big stones in their ring.
Personal preference and lifestyle. To answer your questions. Metal will last longer, but Groove Rings have a lifetime guarantee, and cost a lot less. Most are not as low profile. They separate when they snag and object, and are tested to break at a certain tension point. Metal rings do not. You could snag a ring rock climbing, on a counter (Jimmy Fallon), working on a car, etc. I also work in an ER, so I'm seen quite a few ring problems. Rings have gotten cut off or broken for swelling in the hands due to burns, trauma, fractures, wounds, etc.
Slappy McPunchy how many times do you need to hear the story of a fool who paid thousands of dollars for a wedding ring that will most likely not stay on your hand for 10 years because of divorce lol
Why the FUCK would i buy something for that kind of stupid money when i already bought one 35 years ago in a vending machine at K-MART when i was 8yo! lol get real!
If you work a dangerous job, why not just wear your real ring on a necklace or something while you work? This cheap silicone band isn't anything that a normal person would recognize as being a wedding band because it's obviously a ultra cheap disposable piece of silicone that cost pennies to mass produce. If you feel obligated to have something encircling your ring finger all all times even while you're doing dangerous things, why not just buy a pack of o rings at the auto parts store? Or A rubber band? Or piece of twine? Probably the safest of all is to draw a circle around your finger with a sharpie until you put your real ring back on?
Hey guys. As you can see there are a lot of trolling comments about these rings. I'm not sure why people are so offended, but these juvenile comments don't matter to me, and shouldn't matter to you either. They're great rings; if you pick one up and love it that's great. If not I totally respect your opinion, and thanks for watching.

Dang, I can’t believe some of the comments on this thread! I’ve tried both Qalo and Groove Life and I definitely agree the Groove rings are so much better. I’m willing to pay the extra $5-$10 for a nice low-profile ring.
For all the other people who say it’s worthless to buy because you just shouldn’t wear a ring: Some of us are happily married and want to display that, and also this video is obviously not for you, so move along :)
Totally agree. Pretty ridiculous. That's the internet for ya.
Wow there are people who have opions that dont match yours. With a little attitude you tell them to move along. Man you are a special snowflake.
Its good to show that you're happily married, but its not safe to wear a metal (or any kind) of ring to a job site. Have you seen pictures of what happens when your ring gets caught in a grinder? Yeah, not good... Also that's a 100 to 10,000 dollar ring just ruined. If it were me I'd ask groove to make a fancier wedding ring, the ones they have kinda suck on the aesthetics side.
Randall Sarka you’re literally the snowflake of you can’t see ppl blowing their top and being disrespectful because THEY don’t agree with him.
This is a great statement. As a married lady thank you for being willing to stand up acme be counted. And my husband thanks you. M
TY for the review!! I am currently waiting for a Groove Life ring in the mail, and am considering purchasing a Qalo ring. TY again for the honest hands on review!!
I'm a man who REALLY works hard in civil and military construction in a region of very high humidity (Brazilian Amazon) and I bought four Chinese rings for less than US$0.50 and I wear them 24 hours a day even swimming... In the first week there was even a region of peeling skin (just like an expensive 22k gold ring also gets...), it doesn't get that way anymore with use and I don't see why paying more than US$1.00 for a silicone ring because ALL ARE ABSOLUTELY EQUAL. Spend money wherever you want! I even thought about buying a more expensive silicone ring, but as deliveries weren't available in my region, I decided to test the most beautiful "xing-ling" ring I could find and... I really liked it!! Besides, as a man, I don't think it's good to wear things that are so ornate and full of Don't-Me-Touch, I need a nice, resistant and sober color like black, olive green, night blue or gray. Why pay dearly for something I can buy 4 x US$0.50 with free shipping???
Nice thorough review!
This looks like a great channel, I'm quite impressed by the production quality.
My Outcast State. Thanks so much👍. Thanks for subscribing. I plan on continually improving.
Haven't tried a Groove ring yet, but I have been using QALO and i absolutely love it.
There was an incident at my work where a guy was jumping out of the back of a truck and caught his wedding ring on an edge. It de-gloved his finger, meaning it pulled the tissue off leaving only the bone attached to his hand.
I think these will become pretty routine to see people wearing given incidents like that aren't completely uncommon.
Thanks for your contribution. That sounds nasty. You never know what could happen.
You could just not wear the ring...
Your review helped me a lot in making a decision on which brand of silicone band to purchase my husband. Thanks!!
Amie Collins don’t turn him into a rubber lover, nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I just decided to give the Groove Life a try. I have seen this for a while now and after many years of not using my wedding ring for different reasons I am getting one. My wife and I have a good relationship we do not need to flash our weeding rings everywhere we go, actually I haven't wear mine in a long time (10 year) mainly because I play percussion (congas, bongos and such) and metal rings get in the way, also because when I workout and I started doing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai so there is no way I can use a metal ring. People complain these are overprice (yes) but I rather pay $35 for a cool rubber band than $2K for a metal ring that is worth $200 right outside the store.
Awesome comment. I agree 100%. I totally see how a metal ring would be a problem with instruments or martial arts; had not thought of that. I hope you like your ring.
A wedding band is NOT A FAD, these rings fill in very nicely for some people’s expensive rings. Great idea An I personally can say groove rings are a great quality product with an unbeatable warranty.
I want to buy a silicone ring because I am in the military and when I am out in the field I don't want to wear a Tungsten ring, especially if a workplace injury occurs. Heck, I know that when Im on ruck marches because of the weight on my shoulders (im not quite sure the science behind it) my blood circulation is affected in some way and my fingers tend to swell up. I want to wear a ring because I want to love my soon to be wife with a symbol of our marriage everywhere I go. If I can wear one into the field that would be a huge plus to me.
Steven. Thanks so much for sharing, and for your service. You sound like a great guy, and an awesome husband.
Almost lost a finger on a hydraulic ladder rack many years ago on a fire scene. Never wore a metal ring again! These are great.
I got an ad for this same exact thing on this video. Also the rings are pretty cool
They are using my video in some of their ads. They are pretty cool.
The groove ring is awesome. I've had mine for a while and love it. I guess some people are just looking for a way to entertain themselves with their own comments, but these are good quality and very comfortable. Buying my wife one now...
Nice. I love mine also. The new aspire rings are pretty sweet.
or you could be looking for a way to waste your money, if so I gave some bread ties for sale at $19.99 per tie, then I was thinking of starting to sell the rocks in my garden, interested.
Good review. Thank you.
This "fad" has been going for years people. When I joined the army in 2011 people were wearing silicone rings already so I highly doubt this is a fad. I just bought one because my $1500 ring kept dropping the diamonds and it is actually right now getting fixed again. I got a silicone ring for work, workouts and just to wear around the house now and use my gold ring for going out with my wife on our dates or stuff like that. Never was a fan of the silicone rings but gave it a shot and oh man. It feels great, looks good and you even forget you have a ring on. I recommend people to try one before judging. Calling people names because of what they like and it's not your style is just childish.
Totally makes sense Derrick. I definitely understand there are special occasions when a traditional ring feel more appropriate. For day to day stuff the silicone rings are a more practical and comfortable alternative. Thanks for the contribution.
Nailed it 👍
Where can I buy their steel wire fence! It’s beautiful
With doing these rings reviewers usually forget a very viable reason for wearing silicone rings; when having long term medical issues ie lupus, M.S., M.D., arthritis, (awful horrid rheumatoid arthritis) cancer tx, preggers, autonomic nueropathy, these rings are very appreciated since the medical tx of these situations may cause swelling or intense pain that prohibit wearing any traditional metal rings. my Embnn rings are so important to me; i miss my original 💍 ring, but the idea (for us) just wearing a ring is what matters. My husband wears his out of respect and consideration to me; i am the one who can't wear my traditional ring any longer after 31y. He took his off and switched to these the same day i got mine while in an IL hospital for chemo tx. ☕ It really matters as a statement of our marriage and believes. M. IL.
Really excellent point 😀 I am actually a nurse, but had not thought about this. I'm sorry to hear if you have had some (or all) of medical issues, but I'm glad these rings help in a small way.
Thank you so much!
I got the ring ad, on the FRKN ring video!
I was on the checkout page of Qalo, because of your old Qalo review video.. now im glad I decided to do one last scan for reviews.
It costs more, and will have to get it shipped internationally, but maybe the extra costs of Groove Life will be worth it
Groove rings are great, but I wouldn't overthink it too much. Both will serve you well.
@@BetterLifeReviews I actually bought a pack of Maui Rings. They are a lot cheaper and have been perfect so far
I have the same problem with the QALO. It gets itchy overtime.
As a mechanic, if brakeclean hits my qalo ring it instantly makes it expand and I have to remove it for several days till the material returns to normal. Gonna check the groove out next.
did you end up buying it? and if so how has it held up?
Why don't you just get a tattoo? That's more meaningful. Or just grab an O ring off your parts shelf and put it on while you're at work?
Hmm. That’s weird. I think Groove may do the same thing then, but hard to say. Maybe try the Groove Zeus since it has anti-stretch technology.
Mine and my wife rings are supposed to be unbreakable but they broke ....
So we’re going to give this a shot.
I love how many options you have with them: I’m not the richest person alive but not the poorest either, it seems to me that people have a lot more hatful things to say than nice respect things so thanks for your video man.
I hope we like these things. Lol
I love the way they look. Always wanted a black ring. Looks good on pale skin I think.
Nice. I hope that you like them. Groove has sales on pretty much every holiday.
There's a lot of haters, but it can still be good conversation, and I don't take them seriously. I hope your rings work out 😎
I work in the HVAC field and cannot wear standard wedding bands for fear of my finger being burned off. So, silicone rings are awesome! I didn’t even buy a traditional wedding band. I just have two silicone ones while my wife has a traditional one. Highly recommend
Can you explain why a standard wedding band would cause your finger to burn off?
fuzzypandas89 conductivity, I’ve seen guys that got their fingers burned while working with the wiring inside a a/c system before. It depends on the type of ring and what it’s made out of, but gold is very conductive.
@@lucien8476 I see. Thank you for the explanation

I particularly like how your voice drops at the end of every sentence as it makes you sound like you're reading every word.
You’re too kind
My boyfriend got me 7 different rings from Enso. They are my engagement/wedding rings. He wanted me to be able to have the option to mix and match my rings. I have three of the stackable rings now. He used as my engagement set for when he Proposed to me. I have 4 more coming in the mail this week. One of them is from the infinity collection and it’s also engraved. But I Don’t Know what the engraving says yet.
Wow! You're really a fan. Sounds like a cool setup. Congrats on your engagement.

Hey better life reviews you should try out fixate designs xf-8 x vent rings they are thinner and breathable I have 3 qalo and 3 fixate perfect for my job
Seems ok, but doesn't seems as cool or quality in my opinion. Thanks for the info.
No problem was just another brand that makes em I just got the groove brand for Christmas so we will see
Thanks. Im constantly taking my wedding band off at work due to the risk of burning my finger or causing an arc or worst shredding my finger. I hate not being able to where my ring at work. My wife hates it too. She says I'm not "representing" lol. Didn't really know which silicone ring to get. But now I think I know which one and she can be happy now that I can "represent".
Definitely gotta keep the wife happy. Glad to play some part in keeping you out of the dog house.
A happy wife is a happy life lol
The ad for this video was this video!
Haha. Yep.
Do you mean this video literally is a paid ad, an actual ad that sometimes plays before watching a video?
I made the video. They then reached out to me to see if they could use part of it. It is not a paid ad.
I am looking to get a ring. As a fireman I never wear my ring at work, but then usually forget to wear it off duty. I am wondering if the thin Groove ring would work better to keep the finger dryer, even more than the original wide version. I am curious how it would look on a guy's hand.
I checked out the "thin" ring collection on the Groove Life website. I didn't see any pictures of them on guys. The thin is not available on Amazon; there would probably be pictures there. In my opinion the thin would probably be a little better for drying, but would look kind of small on guys hands, especially a fireman. I love my Groove Original Ring, and wear it almost everywhere, but I have not tried the thin. Are you intending to wear it fighting fires? I think the silicone would definitely be better than metal, but still would melt at a certain temperature. Then again, you would have bigger problems at that point.
I would wear it 100% of the time. I agree, if the ring melts on my finger at 500 degrees...shit has gone really bad. We have the same discussion when guys bring up the "I don't want to wear my synthetic underwear in case it melts". Thank you for the response. I will try to find them in a store to see in person.
Haha. Definitely. Don't stress too much; they have some good sizing guides, and will exchange if you get it wrong. groovelife.com/pages/silicone-ring-sizing-guide
Wow, I didn't get far in the comments but I can see people are being very opinionated about this for some reason. I am happily married and have a beautiful wedding ring but it is very expensive, flashy and big... I love to wear it but its not convenient for my work as a fitness instructor and beekeeper. I am always sweating teaching classes and practicing hot yoga and would have to take it off for work as it just gets in the way and I would be so upset if I lost my ring or forgot is someplace at work. However unfortunately working in fitness people can make unwanted advances if they see no ring and think maybe you are single so I got a Qalo ring for most of my usual daily activities.I just got it today and wore it all day and think it should work well for what I wanted it for. Thanks for the review I will check out the groove life ones now too!
Holly. Thanks for sharing. Yes. People are very opinionated, but I'm glad that the Qalo ring is working as a solution for you; you're definitely the kind of person these rings are perfect for.
Someone please help me, can these rings just be random rings that you wear, or are these rings for like wedding rings
Good question. You can wear the rings for whatever purpose you want. They can be casual, or to signify marriage. They could be worn on other fingers if you are concerned about the meaning. They offer several fun and custom rings (i.e. sports teams), which would probably be worn in a more casual sense.
Thanks for this review. I am about to make my first purchase of a silicon ring for work. On another note, can you tell me what kind of watch is that you're wearing and where did you purchase it?
Nice! No problem. The watch is a Garmin Epix; I bought mine on Ebay for $400 a few years ago. It was down around $200 on Amazon, but is now closer to $400.
I'm not married but I liked this review! This is helpful info for when I'm looking for this kind of ring.
10freshz Thanks so much! Take your time, but I'm glad I could give you some info for when that time comes.

I clicked on this video and got this video as an ad for this video... Lol.
Nice, but sorry about the repetition.
I work as a CNA and they are definitely easier to clean
I’m a size 9 do you think that’ll fit?
Check out the sizing sheet link in the description. I personally go down by one to two sizes for the traditional Groove rings, which are more stretchy.
My wife and I used the Groove cheatsheet when we purchased our rings. Both of us luckily got the correct size our first order. Been wearing the ring for four days straight with no finger discoloration.
Awesome! Thanks for the update. I really like mine too. Sizing can be tricky, but the cheatsheet really helps.
I workout 5 times and week and am a mechanic, can't wait for this ring to arrive in the post... Also to all the haters, open your mind, not everyone is a pencil pusher.
Nice. You're probably pretty jacked then. Enjoy your ring.
"Open your mind" you mean don't be practical and waste your money. If you're working, just take it off. If someone flirts with you, tell them you're married.
So ? How is it after a long time ?
@@Ptit.clement Put a small rubber band on you index finger then you tell us.
@@studivan Please, you do it and then you tell us
I have been wearing a #QALO Ring for almost 2 years without taking it off at all, I swim very often and have never, ever had an issue with water getting trapping underneath. I have also had it replaced free of charge when it broke after a year, and I am very active! They also have "THE FOREVER WARRANTY" that applies to amazon orders as well.
Sorry. This got held for review. This is all I could find on the Qalo warranty: help.qalo.com/hc/en-us/articles/214788103-Lifetime-Warranty-on-our-Rings-and-Dog-Identification-Tags. This says they will replace the ring one time. I remember this being different previously. I'm glad your ring is working out well; they are both good rings, just different.
Is their really any proof that if these get hung up that they won’t rip off your finger like metal rings.
Desn D. They definitely do break, and are less harsh overall. Here's the best I can find now: Groove Ring force to break: bit.ly/2vGZbCi

Better Life Reviews Good enough for me , thanks and great review !
I've had the same qalo ring for 5 years and its just now broke. I dont get all the haters on these videos.
I don't have a problem with silicone rings, or people wearing silicone rings. What I have a problem with is a company, like Groove Ring, who think that charging $30 dollars for a piece of silicone is a fair price. You can get similar silicone rings, with great reviews, from Wish.com for $1-$2 dollars. I just feel like the mark up is completely unfair for consumers, but hey, it's not my money being spent.
I see your point. I believe that Groove rings have a superior design, quality, and warranty. To each their own though.
I just wanna know if it bends like bruh
How do you know if it fits or not?
Not sure what you mean. There is a link to the Groove sizing chart in the video description. You can also exchange if you get the wrong fit.
Watching reviews as I just bought the QALO ring smh
My Qalo ring does the same thing. Junk. I ordered the Zeus ring from Groove life
I bought an Qolo ring a Hibbets sports store I wear a size 10 and that the size Qolo ring I got it fits perfect. I just ordered the try on set from groove life and I'm gonna see how they feel and work i almost had my finger ripped of a few times with my metal band and I will never go back to metal again.
That's awesome. It's definitely great that you can try on Groove rings to get the right size. That's crazy; I've haven't had that problem personally, but would definitely like to keep my fingers 🤕. Best of luck. Let me know which you like better.
If that is the case your an idot. For that to happen to you more than once than you are at fault not the machine. Go bake a cake and get out of the shop where men who have half a brain still know to respect the machine and follows the tool instruction manual that clearly tells you how to avoid personnel Injury.
Pretty sure the problem most people have is trying to represent a lifetime commitment with these super sturdy rubber vape tank bands . (just screams commitment)
Pretty sure the diamond industry (and many others) formulated a master advertising plan over many years to trick you into thinking you can't be married without them.
@@BetterLifeReviews Im gonna say the same thing to you as I did to adam from adam ruins everything. Wedding bands were first seen in Egypt in about 4000bce and while I agree that diamonds are a joke (excluding some legitimately 1 off natural color variants like red), a diamond dosent make a wedding ring. There are plenty of precious and semi precious stones available and essentially only diamonds are monopolized by a few major producers. Maybe before you try and defame jewelers/miners/cutters and their work look into how difficult certain things actually are too find..... a perfect example being Montana sapphire (maybe 30g of a kilo of rough will be able to cut above a carat stone) so nobody is supprised when 1ct+ stones of that source pull a premium
@@SushikiIIer Wow. Serious response. I won't claim to know the in's and out's of the jewelry industry. This is an endless debate with many factors, but I see your points, and you have my respect for providing a valid rebuttal.

Great video buddy... I’ll be showing the wife as soon as she gets home! My biggest complaint about the ring I wear now is that my fingers hurt! I can’t wear it all day, really no more then like 7-8 hours before my fingers hurt and I take it off... (She doesn’t like that) So hopefully this ring will fix the issue! I’m very hopeful it works out...
I will let you know when I get it and if it works for me...

Yep. The company asked if they could use my video in their ad. Thanks for letting me know anyway.
Better Life Reviews cool 👌 always shows the quality of a review if it’s qualifiable to be an ad
Yep you're being paid so basically you're a tool pimping yourself out for money no matter what cheap product it is
Shit, this ring is perfect for me! I’m always a safety first kinda guy so Im without my wedding ring quite often. Problem is, the bitches just flock to me when I don’t have it on! It’s not their fault I’m a sexy mfer. But now that I’ve found this, I can’t think of any activity I couldn’t do with one of these on, which is great because I really hate having that fight with my wife.
Must be rough being that sexy. I'm sure your wife will appreciate it 😇🤔
I got a Zeus ring by Groove Life a few weeks ago. Good quality. Even better quality than my other silicone ring by Barbell. I like silicone rings. It gives a finger a break from metal rings. I own a Tungsten Carbide ring. However, I only wear it on special occasions.
Nice. Haven't tried out the Zeus yet. Glad you like it.
Definitely a safer choice than any metal ring for people working in certain conditions. One example being mechanics. I am sure those who have experienced ring avulsion probably wish they had something like these on instead of metal... and Jimmy just had a freak accident, it can happen to anyone. Plus IMHO, good marriages hinge on more than just a ring...

Are you saying you had a problem?
@@BetterLifeReviews No I was saying if you feel we are crazy for buying rubber rings then maybe you'll feel better saying you bought a extended warranty and the ring was free. I just bought my first groove rings and they are really growing on me.
Awesome! Glad to hear you are having a positive experience. Totally agree.
I wonder if everyone commenting realizes those fancy rings you buy from the jewelry store immediately lose their value when you walk out with it. What's so smart about trading $2000 for $1000? It's a rock/metal that serves no function. I'd rather be out $25 then hundreds/thousands of dollars lol. People don't realize those jewellers make money which means the customer is losing much more.
Good points. Jewelry is an industry that is way overpriced, but has corrupted our thinking with many years of clever advertising.
I agree that real rings lose a lot of value. I'd understand the argument to not wear a ring at all. But anyone buying these kinds of things are being ripped off way more than someone buying a gold ring. Do you realize this "ring" costs literally 2 cents to make, just like the plastic ring you get from the kids quarter machines? At least gold has inherent value. Plastic doesn't. You couldn't pay someone to take a silicone band from you. If you want to make a statement about commitment without as much money, get a tattoo around your ring finger.
I've seen these adds I honestly don't understand why is this a thing?
Totally cool. Not for everybody.

They should give themselves a big hand. Or wait.. they already did.
What is the ring supposed to do?
Show that you are married, or just as an expression if that's your thing (ex. camo, sports teams, custom designs).
The problem I see with these is they are whats they word I'm looking for temporarily. There is a reason why metal rings have lasted thousands of years. Rubber no matter how good it is does not last. Just look at the tires on a car.
rascalMatt17 yes that is why I made a whole statement saying how these are not long lasting.... Guessing you didn't learn what an obvious statement means..
@rascalMatt17 boi
QALO took my $27 and never sent my ring. Customer service is terrible. Never buy QALO
Zed Rollins. That stinks. What did they say?
I totally disagree, their customer service is amazing and so are their rings. This tool advertises for Groove and everything he says about Qalo rings is not true so this is definitely not an honest review.
People crying about the price, think of it like this. You buy cheap condoms which you are going to use for a few minutes and throw them away. Let one break and see how much 18 years of child support and lawyers cost. I'm buying one because I dont want a finger ripped off or get zapped by 4160 volts from 10 feet away! Dont want one? Then dont buy one. To each his own!

I tried a qalo ring and it was alright just idk just dont wanna wear some cheap rubber ring. I spend a lot of money on a nice gold ring and just cant bring my self to not wear it. I have haven't had an issue with my gold band and while these silicone rings are a great idea its just not for me! Women wear nice gold diamond rings with no issue and to wear a cheap rubber ring that symbolizes my love for my wife is just disrespectful! There isnt anything wrong with a good quality gold or silver tungsten ring!!
Thanks for a well though out, rather than offensive comment. I think this is somewhat a matter of convention, and somewhat a matter of personal choice. For me silicone rings are a more comfortable, less abrasive, expressive & safer way to still express that I am married. My wife actually bought me my first silicone ring because I was having trouble with a rash and discomfort associated with my cobalt ring. She is happy when I wear the silicone ring, and recently got her own that she wears to the gym. It can be a compliment to a metal ring if you want that, or if you think it appears unprofessional. I'm not sure why so many people watch the review if they feel so strongly about silicone rings, but I appreciate the discussion and views. If you go to the Groove Ring website you will see that a lot of people do in fact purchase these rings. You could say they are expensive for rubber, but there are differences in quality and design among rings. Metal rings are also very expensive for what they are, and diamond ring prices are just insulting clever marketing over time. However, to each their own, and thank you for your opinion.
Appreciate it! I do see the logic i mean it gets caught you will prolly just loose the ring and you can get another one. At the end of the day do what makes you happy and fits your lifestyle and maybe one day ill try it again idk. Great video way to be very professional and understanding of why one wouldn't wear a silicone ring!! Ill give yall a like!
Honestly this is going To be my choice because of my profession, I work in the oilfield, so the money isn't the issue, keepn my didgets is lol had friends loose their fingers out here and I Wana keep all mine
Ideas
About what?
50 bucks for something worth 5 cents,,,my 14ct gold ring has been fine on my finger for 30 years
Is your gold ring worth as much as you paid for it?
I feel the same way! They are only $1-$2 dollars at companies like Wish.com.
For 5 cents I can wear an O- ring, for 2 cents I can wear a rubber band. This is like the pet rock, a fad that will never last.
Seems to be a pretty common opinion if you read the comments. I love mine, so does my wife, and a lot of active people buy and love these rings. It's a personal decision, and you are free to have your opinion.
@Slappy McPunchy lol!!!
You can sell just about anything to Americans
@@BetterLifeReviews No. The problem is you act like non metal rings are new or these are hard to make. They are not as long as you have the lazer equipment.. I've done similar with wood. They are advertising something that happens to less than .01% of humans on a level passed extremely minor discomfort. They are a fucking gimmick for morons. You're literally devoting your life to silicone rings they've had for kids for 30 fucking years. Go put these rings with your silly band collection and enjoy a short fad. Literally brain dead marketing taking advantage of below average IQ diet eaters. Smh. 90% of their designs are unseeable unless the ring is off.. I picture these fucking mongoloids walking around taking their ring off to show everyone their rings THAT HAS BEEN OUT FOR YEARS. It's literally not practical for 99.99% of people anymore than a fucking ring from a toy dispenser for 25 cent is. It's a 10 year old type fad for adults. Pathetic.
kinda watch is dude sporting?
It's a Garmin Epix. A little older by now, but still one of the only watches with GPS, mapping, advanced running dynamics, etc. If you can find it on sale it's a steal compared to the $800-900 you would pay for a Fenix with similar capabilities.
Congratulations. You just paid to wear a rubber band. lol
A cool rubber band 😎
@@tesladrew2608 my 7 year old daughter has cooler rubber bands than that one give me a break lol... her's cost less too and are just as durable. Only different is they aren't marketed to dupes. lol What can I say.. a sucker is born every minute!
@@Alligators_in_the_sewer its a lot thicker than rubber bands
Congratulations, you don't know the difference between rubber and silicone. Your education is showing, and it isn't pretty.
@@miraak542 that has nothing to do with my point? So that's a logical fallacy. Your education is showing and it isn't pretty. Also silicone is technically called Silicone Rubber just so you know. Silicone and Rubber are both elastomers. So yea she has rubber and silicone bands etc big deal. So essentially your comment is a logical fallacy (Red Herring) and also not to mention a weak criticism as no one cares if it's rubber or silicone. That doesn't help your argument (or lack of one) So try again. Your education is showing and it is definitely not pretty.
I just cant spend 30 dollars on a silicone ring. My brain won't let me do it.
BIG D holy shit people like you actually exist. I’m shook. Careful with that ego brother life ain’t about comparison.
Sean O'Bannon- SAID THE BROKE ASS CHUMP...

THIS ATTITUDE IS WHAT HAS MADE ME A SUCCESSFUL, RICH, BOSS... IM 35 YEARS OLD I HAVE BEEN FULL TIME SELF-EMPLOYED SINCE I WAS 23! NOW MY MONEY WORKS FOR ME! IVE ALWAYS MOVED WITH PURPOSE! PUTTING MYSELF IN THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME...
MY SUCCESS HAS NOT HAPPENED BY ACCIDENT!
SO “YES” PEOPLE LIKE ME DO EXIST! FAR AND FEW BETWEEN UNFORTUNATELY!
PEOPLE THAT AREN’T AFRAID TO GO AND GET WHATS THEIRS!
SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE!
Just the fact that you said all that proves you aint shit soooonn!!!
@First Last I've been wearing the same ring for 20yrs and nothing ever happened. My great-grandma wore hers for 70yrsor more and nothing ever happened to her.
Shoot I can't spend $500 on a gold ring knowing when I walk out with it it's only worth $250 lol.
I wear four stainless steel rings on each hand for a total of 8. They are awesome rings and they are really comfortable. I would never replace my steel rings with cheap silicone rings. I can't imagine anybody else making the switch neither because it doesn't make sense.
That's a lot of rings. You must be pretty into that.

What do you mean?

All my rings fit the same theme. The eight rings I wear are the Batman logo, Superman logo, Green Lantern logo, The flash logo, Legion of Superheros, Spider-Man face, Deadpool logo and Star Wars logo rings. They were made by a company called Sales One and sold at the time by one of their subsidiary companies Inox. They no longer sell the DC rings but they still sell Marvel and Star Wars jewelry. I also wear a Batman bracelet on my right wrist and a Star Wars one on my left. I bought a bunch of necklaces from them to. They have DC, Marvel and Star Wars pendants on the chains. Bodyvibe which is another one of Sales Ones subsidiary companies is selling the the jewelry last I checked.
Cool. Not something I'm into, but just shows that we all have different interests and needs.
@rascalMatt17 doesnt make sense. You're in a hospital around all those germs. Germs stick to rubber. You cant clean it like you can metal. I bet it starts to stink and eveything. Full of bacteria
Like. Safer, cheaper and breathable. Plus an honest company with Un-limited warranty.
This comment section is so fake it’s hilarious.
If you mean offensive and ridiculous, then yes.
Groove ring takes the whole point of rings away who cares about confort I rather put on a metal ring with spikes on the inside then a groove ring.
Sounds painful
Dude. This is all about having an excuse for a fake commitment. It's psychological warfare lol. Just take the fucking thing off when you're working.
Are you serious? Its a tap washer for goodness sake!
That sounds like a painful solution; just make sure you at least go stainless.
Im just confused how a regular wedding band is a problem for a man. Its low profile just like this rubber band ring except its gold. Gold will last through almost anything (heat, cold, dirt, oil, etc) this rubber band wont.
I also see people saying their ring can get caught in something.... how??? What??? What can get under your wedding band that cant also get under this rubber ring? Its not like men wear big stones in their ring.
Personal preference and lifestyle. To answer your questions. Metal will last longer, but Groove Rings have a lifetime guarantee, and cost a lot less. Most are not as low profile. They separate when they snag and object, and are tested to break at a certain tension point. Metal rings do not. You could snag a ring rock climbing, on a counter (Jimmy Fallon), working on a car, etc. I also work in an ER, so I'm seen quite a few ring problems. Rings have gotten cut off or broken for swelling in the hands due to burns, trauma, fractures, wounds, etc.
If any of yall bought a rubber ring for 40 bucks, you been scammed
A A yeah he's spending 40 dollars on something actually worth it. I could get a ring like this out of a gumball machine for 25 cents
Slappy McPunchy how many times do you need to hear the story of a fool who paid thousands of dollars for a wedding ring that will most likely not stay on your hand for 10 years because of divorce lol
my dad owns qalo
and groove life copied qalo
True on concept. Not true on design.
qalo has a lot more to offer tho
have you gotten any of there new breathable rings?
Why the FUCK would i buy something for that kind of stupid money when i already bought one 35 years ago in a vending machine at K-MART when i was 8yo! lol get real!
Or maybe not wear a ring at all. 😂
If it was a power ring, I'd wear that shit
If you work a dangerous job, why not just wear your real ring on a necklace or something while you work? This cheap silicone band isn't anything that a normal person would recognize as being a wedding band because it's obviously a ultra cheap disposable piece of silicone that cost pennies to mass produce. If you feel obligated to have something encircling your ring finger all all times even while you're doing dangerous things, why not just buy a pack of o rings at the auto parts store? Or A rubber band? Or piece of twine? Probably the safest of all is to draw a circle around your finger with a sharpie until you put your real ring back on?
So, your saying you don’t like the ring then 😜
