Not a Perfect Solution in every case but mostly a Good Fix for a Good Price
I have purchased a couple different packages of these in what I believe to be every size that they make. My rings range in size from extremely thin to probably close to 1/2" (engagement, wedding, 1st anniversary all welded together). I have had, by far, the most success with my wider rings. Here are some tips to keep in mind when using the ring noodles:1. Wider rings where the two sides of the opening on the ring noodle don't quite touch seem to go on the easiest and stay put while you are wearing them. However, if you happen to be able to match up the amount of size change you need with the width of your ring band then ring noodles work quite well and aren't terribly uncomfortable once you get used to them.2. As stated by the seller, the ring size change varies with the size of the noodle. So if you need a reduction of 1.5 - 2 sizes for a tiny ring it might be best to look elsewhere. Due to medical reasons my fingers frequently change sizes from one day to the next. I keep three different types of ring sizers in multiple sizes on hand to deal with this. The RinGuard (http://www.amazon.com/RinGuard-Ring-Size-Adjuster-Sizes/dp/B00PI0T25Q?ie=UTF8&psc=1&ref_=sxr_pa_click_within_right1) works really well for thin bands although I've had to trim the ends in order to avoid it rubbing against adjacent fingers. Ring Magic (http://www.amazon.com/Ring-Resizer-Magic-Safety-Assorted/dp/B011W7X1PK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1463406997&sr=8-2&keywords=ring+magic) I think might work best for people with smaller fingers. I wear and 8 on my ring finger and a 9 on my middle finger. The sizer is basically an elastic contraption. I would say it virtually guarantees your ring will not come off. The problem is that it compresses your finger which makes the ring appear to fit even looser and flop around a bit (up-and-down not around). However, if you have small fingers, only need to resize a tiny bit and/or have a particular concern about losing your ring in water it might be a good choice. The only other kind I have been able to find are these - http://www.amazon.com/Ladies-Guard-Sizer-Filled-LADIES/dp/B00Y2MP5AC?ie=UTF8&keywords=ring%20sizer&qid=1463406690&ref_=sr_1_12&sr=8-12 - but I haven't tried them yet.3. I saw some comments regarding problems with rubbing against adjacent fingers. I would imagine that could be a problem if you either have small fingers (and the noodle is simply too long) or if the noodle is too loose (and moves around). Sometimes, you just can't get the right fit (i.e. size adjustment doesn't match up with band width) but in the case of small fingers I would say you could trim the end of the noodle a bit with sharp scissors.4. There were some comments regarding difficulty when washing hands. I will say that in my own experience this is absolutely not a problem IF the noodle fits perfectly. The poorer the fit the greater difficulty I have with rings sliding around after washing my hands.5. I have also seen comments about buying less expensive "noodles" at stores at the small. Well, let me say, if you think the ring noodles don't work all that well those are much worse. The ones I bought were straight tubes rather than being preformed to the shape of a ring. I couldn't even get them to stay on before putting the ring on my hand.Anyhow, bottom line, these can work pretty decent if you get the proper size. After trying two other alternatives I am beginning to think its time for some rings to either be permanently resized or possibly have some sort of semi-permanent fixture installed by a jeweler.

Works for now.
This worked for me, but I wish it came in wider thinner diameter noodles. I need a slightly larger one to encircle my band that tapers in at the sides, but the thicker tubes don't work since I only need a 1/2 to 3/4 size adjustment. I don't love how there's a gap in the back, which does cause a little pinch from time to time. I will say that this works much better for me than similar spring-looking versions of sizers, so I kept it. I am looking forward to getting my ring sized for real, but until then, these provide me peace of mind.

It's ok. I like that I got all different sizes for wide rings or skinny rings and they do what they say just annoying to wear
I have a couple of rings that are too big for the finger I want to wear them on so I bought these thinking it would be great and I could carry on with my life...but I have to say I don't love it. It's more annoying than I thought it would be and catches hair easily especially when I'm trying to fix my daughter's hair. I knew I would feel a bump there but it's too much of an annoyance for me to be able to suggest it to anyone else. Only if you are waiting to get your ring in to get sized would I suggest it. Plus everyone can see it and so I felt embarrassed. That's just me.

Works well.
I tried using the smaller size noodles as most of my rings have thin bands. They work better than some of the other types of band reducers. For me they are not very comfortable for more than an evening out. That's better than not being able to wear my rings all so I'm happy with them.My knuckles are big compared to the base of my finger so after having my rings sized they still spin. This is a good enough alternative.They are easy to get on the band while wearing the ring.

irritates back of finger
The noodle does make your ring tighter however the hard plastic does rub on your finger and if you wipe your face with the palm of your hand you could scratch you face. I ended up taking it off and just dealing with a spinning ring. I can't go another size down otherwise it will be to tight.

A simple idea that works
It's a very simple idea - a set of differing sized transparent soft plastic siphon tubes that have been cut into small lengths and then slit lengthwise. Pick the one that fits over the ring that you want to wear and insert the ring through the slit. now your oversized ring won't fall off your finger!Pros: quick and easy to use, works well enough, comfortable, saves money on ring re-sizingCons: considering these are only very short lengths of siphon tubing cut lengthwise it's fairly expensive for what you get

This is a good quick easy fix for your rings. I recommend buying the multipack since the thickness of rings varies. I also take the ring guard off when I'm not wearing the ring because I don't want it to lose its shape, they are a hard rubber. The only complaint I have is because it is rubber it can get a little uncomfortable meaning a little sweaty. But it's a good value for the money.

Works well
These ring noodles keep my rings from sliding around my finger, so they do what they are supposed to do. I'm using the widest one around two stacking rings. They do make a little bundle in your palm that catches on things - just a little snag and very slightly uncomfortable. I may try to shorten the noodles or shave the ends to an angle. I love the all sizes pack since I didn't know what size noodles would work best.
