Bracelet Buddy

I bought my own when these first came out which was over 20 years ago. I've used it frequently and it's still in good shape, even after dropping it several times. I've bought many for gifts since then. It works as described. Sometimes, particularly with a chunky bracelet, it may slip off the clip but persevere; it will work. I'll be giving this to a friend who was lamenting the fact that she can't put her bracelets on by herself. She'll be pleasantly surprised, no doubt. I highly recommend this especially for those with hand issues, such as arthritis, carpal tunnel, etc. It makes it so easy to put your bracelets on. You can even use it to hold your watch strap to make it easier to put on. A definite good buy.

I have been looking for something to assist me with hooking my bracelets without asking someone else to do it for me. I have had a terrible time trying to hold the bracelet in place, open the clasp then attempt to put the loop into the clasp. With Bracelet Buddy, All I have to do is slip the loop in because the Bracelet buddy hold the bracelet still enough to do the deed without assistance. It's a great relief because my hands also shake which makes it extra difficult to keep the bracelet still.

I have arthritis in my hands & that makes it so difficult to attach those tiny clasps on my bracelets. I knew it was a cheap plastic when I purchased it, but I haven't had any problems with it breaking. It does what it's supposed to. I like the plastic teeth which won't scratch my jewelry. At first it felt awkward trying to hold it steady in one hand & hook the clasp with the other due to my arthritis, but I got the hang of it & it works great. A simple little gadget that I never knew I needed until I tried it & now I don't want to be without. It saves so much aggravation from struggling to put on my bracelets.

I originally searched out this product for my 87 yr old mother-in-law who found it nearly impossible to put on her jewelry, but quickly realized the wisdom of ordering one for myself, too. The Bracelet Buddy works pretty well, and allows me to fasten my own bracelets instead of needing to ask my husband for help all the time. I have arthritis in my hands, but I am still able to use it effectively. On the downside, I have one bracelet whose clasp design is such that the Bracelet Buddy doesn't hold it very well, meaning I still struggle with that particular piece. Also, the fancy handle is plastic and, to my way of thinking, too light and kind of cheezy for the price. But, I don't plan on putting it in a display cabinet so I guess that part doesn't matter.

For a simple little piece of plastic (that is actually kind of cute), this has been so helpful!!! I needed it for my Trollbead bracelet (which would mean it would probably help out you Pandora, Camilla, and other bracelet folk, too). The beads are so heavy on my Trollbead bracelet that the bracelet tended to pull off my wrist while I was trying to latch it. Plus, the beads make the bracelet a bit tighter as well, which makes latching tough. I just could NOT get this bracelet on without help (and sometimes, no one's around!). In fact, I even resorted to a trick my friend told me to try by putting a piece of floss through the ringlet loop and holding the floss between my teeth while I latched it. It worked, but the floss would sometimes slip (not to mention I was worried about my teeth...and also not to mention that is just looked weird). : ) Needless to say, the bracelet buddy makes a simple thing like latching one's own bracelt so much easier! No problems now. This is quite a helpful little gadget.

I would not buy this product again there is about .20 cents worth of plastic even the alligator clip is plastic.on metal bracelets it would not hold up very long .Sent mine back to amazon.Every bracelet helper i have ever bought is made out of metal.If I could go lower than 1 star I would.Buyer beware.now i see they are down to 3.00 dollars on amazon.they have a silver one now they want 30.00 dollars for.Same bunch of plastic crap.I would not buy anything that says bracelet buddy.also i have discovered that all the bad reviews of products are put in a see me last order.now i go though and read all 1 star reviews first.wish i had done that with bracelet buddy.and it is not worth the 3.00 they now want for it.BIGGGG PIECE OF CRAP.DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME. DID I SAY IT IS A BIG PIECE OF CRAP CAUSE IT IS.

I have several bracelets and I always had so much trouble getting them on. I live with two cats but they are not a very big help at all. I found this item and ordered it. I think it was a little pricey given the fact that it's made entirely of plastic but I gave it five stars as it's been a huge benefit to me. What used to take forever now takes less than a minute, bracelet is on and I'm ready to go. Clothes are on too I might add but it doesn't help much with them. It's also very attractive so I leave it out on my shelf in the bedroom. I don't think there will be any issues with it being made from plastic as there really isn't any pressure on it. Just grab the clasp and hold it correctly and it's great. It holds it so it doesn't keep slipping off while you're trying to hook it together, just what I needed.

This is great for putting on bracelets when you don’t have a second set of hands! It took a bit of practice, but now that I’ve got the swing of it, it’s an absolute lifesaver!

It's an absolute must have if you have a bracelet that is almost impossible to close by yourself.

I do not recommend

Brilliant!

It is easy to use for me and I have vision problems.

It was a gift for my mother and I believe it works okay, I was expecting it not to be plastic, although the price was right.
