I asked Santa for this lovely ring for Christmas.  It arrived beautifully packaged in a fancy black velvet jewelry box within a white jewelry box, plus a burgundy jewelry bag with silver roping, stamped with the classy company logo--very impressive packaging!  This ring seems to be true to size, as it compares exactly with another size 6 ring that I recently purchased for which I was fitted by a professional jeweler.  I purchased this ring as a replacement for some more expensive jewelry for everyday wear, so I hope it stands up over the long run.  The price was right, but you could've fooled me--this ring looks and feels like the real thing.  I'm not sure of the actual size of the stone, so I measured it, and it appears to be 3/8" or 0.5 cm, and this size stone looks great on my ring finger. The stone is pretty and sparkly, and is certainly large enough to be noticed without appearing fake or gaudy, and the band is classic, substantial, and looks great with the stone.  This ring looks lovely by itself, but I have purchased the 0.925 sterling silver round-cut cz ladies wedding band (sold by the same company) to wear with it, and they make a lovely set.  I don't think you would be disappointed with this ring, and I don't think this company will disappoint you, either. They seem to go out of their way to please.  I am very pleased with my purchase!
