Gauge Taper Plugs Stainless Tunnel Reviews Summary

Quality and Material

Pros:

• "They are very thin (not the gauge) and shiny, a little expensive but it's because they are really nice quality."
• "The quality seems to be okay, doesn't look painted on."
• "These new stainless pieces have definitely helped with healing and stay much cleaner."
• "The quality of both the taper and the tunnels is excellent - there are no burrs or machining marks."
• "These are really high quality plugs they are dense and sturdy unlike a lot of the cheaper plugs."
• "It is really nice quality though and slides right in."
• "They are amazing! Slipped right through, comfortable, and really nice quality for the price."

Cons:

• "It's a little thin and cheaper material than my original tunnel set, but that's okay because these are temporary."
• "The only complaint I have is that the tunnels are really light and don't feel very much like quality stainless steel."
• "This kit is not stainless steel, its hard plastic. I don't believe the measurement is accurate."
• "I love how they had this as an in between size... the only reason why I am giving it 3 stars is because the metal the tunnels are made out of, isn't up to par."
• "Whatever these are made out of is absoulte trash and I would never recommend to anyone."
• "The low quality material in the O ring caused my ears to, weep, swell, bleed and more."
• "Probably not the highest quality metal but it's perfect for the couple months of in-between time before stretching up again :)"

Shipping and Delivery

Pros:

• "Arrived very speedy! I love the notch on the back for the o-ring to sit in. They are very smooth and shiny."
• "Came sealed, and even with a cute little sticker, AND early."
• "Exactly what I expected and delivery time was days sooner than stated! Very happy with quality and price."
• "The plugs came a week early which was really nice."
• "Also ordered these on the night of the 18th and got them by about 1p on the 21st. Fast shipping since they were in California and im in Ohio!"
• "Shipping was faster than expected (arrived a day earlier than estimated)."
• "Absolutely fast shipping, got within two days."

Cons:

• "The only reason I rate four stars is because they arrived five days late."
• "Also, the O-rings did not stay on very tight and they arrived rather late."
• "I should have spent $1-$2 more to be able to get a pair, that's on me, my bad? 🤭"
• "It took a little while to come but not bad."
• "Received one 1g taper (expected) and one 2g plug instead of two (unexpected). Quality seemed fine otherwise but returned to purchase another brand."
• "Arrived before estimated date."
• "shipping is amazing UrbanBodyJewelry is the best!"

Design and Comfort

Pros:

• "Arrived very speedy! I love the notch on the back for the o-ring to sit in. They are very smooth and shiny."
• "The stretch went smoothly and the tunnels look good in the ear."
• "To move from a 2g to the 1g I didn't even need the taper."
• "I HIGHLY recommend these 1 gauge tapers if you're needing help getting to a 0 or 00G."
• "Perfect! I saw other brands where it wasn’t exactly 1g and would be too close to 0g or too close to 2g, but this is perfectly in between them and made stretching easier!"
• "They're very comfortable too."
• "They are comfortable and easy to sleep on."

Cons:

• "The only complaint I have is that the tunnels are really light and don't feel very much like quality stainless steel."
• "They fit into my ear just fine but I rated comfort as a 3/5 because the backing bands were simply too small."
• "Sad that there was only 1 taper and the bands did not have much stretch, I had to use other ones i already had."
• "The o-rings on the plugs are a bit difficult to get on due to the thickness of them."
• "I found the taper itself to be a bit short, meaning it didn't 'taper' quite as smoothly as I would have liked, resulting in a fairly painful stretching."
• "Something in the makeup of the jewelry irritated my earlobes."
• "The only issue I had was one of the tunnels was a little bit rough on 1 edge."

Cons:

• "Didn't even use the product it just slid thru my ear so I went to next size which was a 0g so can't really say it was a good product."
• "The only complaint I have is that the tunnels are really light and don't feel very much like quality stainless steel."
• "I have NO idea what is wrong, but I have a feeling great for sensitive people. I put them in and 1 weak later THIS happened."
