Palladium?

I'm really liking a palladium ring that I found. Does anyone have one and have any positive/negative reviews?

I know there is an old post asking this question, just wanted to see if there were any new opinions.

    My husband has a palladium band and he has no issues with it.

    I adore my palladium ring, and DH adores his too.  I'd say the only downside would be that it's gotten fairly scratched up because I do a lot of work with my hands, to the point where I'm considering not wearing it at work anymore.  It's less dense than platinum, so a lot of the more delicate and intricate designs I found weren't available in palladium.
    This is a neglected planning bio.

    Sometimes I feel like people think that brides are delicate little flower princesses who get all dressed up and pretty for one special moment of their dreams, when really they're just normal people who just happen to be getting married. Things shouldn't have to be sugar-coated for grown-ass women. -mstar284

    I work with my hands a LOT and palladium has held up very well for me. A lot of folks mistake it for platinum, but I keep mine very clean and polished.

    We got my engagement ring and wedding band through Danforth Diamond:

    I called them with lots of questions and they were very knowledgeable about palladium. Good luck!

    I have palladium.  FI got it because it won't yellow like white gold eventually will.  I have to say that this (if I had been there to pick it out) would be a big selling point for me.

    My e-ring is palladium and my wedding band will be as well. i wanted palladium because it is a naturally white metal so I would not have to worry about it being re-dipped in the future. I love my palladium so much that we are getting FI's ring in palladium as well. I highly recommend it.

    I have a Palladium E-ring,and Platinum wedding ring. Both are great, I've never had a problem with either one. They just have to be buffed every so often.

    My e-ring is also palladium and I love it. It is almostas strong a metal as platinium, but less expensive and much stronger than gold or white gold, and doesn't have to be replated. We got FI's wedding ring in palladium as well, although my wedding ring is white gold because we couldn't find a wrap in palladium and didn't want to pay the price to get it in platinum.
