4ocean Reviews 277

Beautiful bracelet! I love it. It was expensive but I wanted it anyway. I like the way it looks and the story behind it.

Just received my bracelet - and I LOVE IT!
It looks beautiful and it makes me so happy to see it on my wrist. I love that it helps removing the plastic, and that you can help an animal too. I will definitely buy from here again!

My bracelet unfortunately broke when I got it, but the customer service was very, very helpful. They helped me get another bracelet and were very kind throughout the whole experience.

Hi again
Just got my bracelet..(Father's Day.. UK).and yes 5 Stars given...😁
See that still negative people trying to do there bit..😞.
All that can be said is any help is better than NONE!
To the company:-
Keep up the GOOD work..
Will look at Donating in a couple of months AGAIN..🙂

I live in Canada and but through 2 large orders. I contacted them concerned that I had lost the tracking information. They emailed me within 24 hours on 2 occasions and put my worries to an end. I recieved all items within 2 weeks. I am thrilled with the level of detais sent with the bracelets. I am one happy supporter of this company!😁

The bottle gets so cold, you can hardly hold it. And I was extremely upset that it did not fit my car cup holder. I would not have spent $30.00 if I had known this.

Opinion

Good day

To the Company..

I donate regularly to a few selected Organizations:

St Jude
Hero's on the Water
local Public TV/Radio

to name 3.

All correspondence and trinkets received from a donation lessen the impact of the donation. I instruct all to stop the 'hard item' Reports, Trinkets, Paper mail correspondence, etc. If received, i immediately throw them out.

With your Bracelets, you have entered an area, that will mask the customer satisfaction of your Company and of the Donator if the Bracelet fails in one form or another. Although not as popular anymore, how many of us donated to, and received from, an Organization an unsolicited 'gift' of a Blanket (American Indian), Plastic American Flag, Religious, etc. that were promptly evaluated and discarded?

I ask, are you an Environmental Cleanup Company or a Trinket Sales Company?

To those that bought the Bracelet:

You have every expectation of receiving a 'quality' (your definition here) Product but, as others have mentioned, this is a donation with a Bracelet as a Gift. Regardless of the marketing distraction, I would advise that any further 'donation/purchase' be considered as such, a donation.

One other detail, fortunately or not, I live on/near the eastern Shore and have those tourist souvenir shops all over. I have seen the Bracelets being sold on a Card at the Cash Registers for the same price point. As such, I have the ability to inspect the item prior to purchase and choose to buy (for donation purposes) and then discard if substandard.

If you have the same access, buy them there to avoid the web marketing nuisance.

Thank you

I've seen the adds on TV and were skeptical so I did some research through the BBB and they have an excellent rating. So I invested in one of the bracelets. It is just as advertised. The beads are recycled glass bottles, so be careful of abuse, and the cord is recycled plastic. I'm an old Boy Scout and understanding how to adjust the bracelet came easily. I'm looking forward to getting a different color bracelet in the near future.

I have 4 bracelets and I love them all. I read some of the reviews and I just cannot believe how ignorant some people are. I am aware that 4Ocean is not jewelry store or a non-profit organization, if you are looking for a bracelet for a black-tie dinner, you might be on the wrong website. Do your research before you buy and please do your research before you post.

Great endeavor! Note that 4ocean is not a charity and never claim to be. Their bracelets are made in Bali, providing jobs to the developing country, and their profits are being invested in even more ocean cleanup projects. I am a monthly subscriber and wear 5 bracelets at a time. The bracelets are lovely, durable and water resistant. Their customer service is fantastic.

Note that due to the handmade nature of the bracelets there may be some variation in the knots on each bracelet, so some are harder to adjust than others, but I love seeing those little indicators of the human touch.

Thank you for all that you do. I am a loyal customer and collector.

Well, I do agree with the clean the oceans goal, when I say to them that $20 for 20 pounds of trash was too much since people here in the states that are working minimum wages ($8.50/hour) will collect 50 or more pounds of trash in one hour, they did not allow me to publish my review. That is the reason why I think they're ripping people off with their pose of environmentalists.

Best customer service ever!! Responds immediately. Had an issue with 1st order and they took care of it at once. My grandson loves his shark bracelet and can't wait to get another bracelet. I just can't say enough about this wonderful group of people and what they do.

TO THE PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE BRACELETS: STOP IT!!! This is NOT a company in the business of making bracelets! The money for the bracelet is a DONATION for a very worthy cause; TO CLEAN OUR OCEANS! If you are looking for a fashion accessory, please go to the for profit Ebay or Amazon. Stop whining about the quality of the bracelets on this remarkably worthy CHARITY.

Love the idea. Excellent customer service had a problem with one called they replaced it within days. Been wearing mine since February......still on and going

Amazing company.
Great vision.
Really fast Shipping

To those who think the bracelet should be worth 20 dollars, your donation is 20 dollars and not the value of the bracelet, the bracelet is a token of appreciation!

I am entirely impressed with this organization. Try as I might, I can't totally eliminate plastic waste from my trash. Even if I could, it doesn't change much in the overall amount dumped into our ocean overall. I really appreciate the work the money goes towards so the little bracelet is, for me, a nice bonus. After ordering the package arrived quickly. I like the simplicity of the bracelet, and find it a very reasonable 'reward' for donating 20 dollars. I've seen much lower quality and less useful items for a 20 dollar charity purchase. I am definitely keeping my subscription and look forward to seeing my collection and contribution grow.

From what I have read, a terrific cause with great results. Also read that the MDs are not grossly overpaid as with other organisations that look after people and our planet. I couldn’t believe that posts that complained about the bracelet. I got one for my wife and I and gave them to my granddaughters.These people donate a lousy $20.00 and want a diamond bracelet in return. Honestly....... did you forget what the money is for???

I've been reading the reviews in regards to the bracelets and if the company spent more money on expensive bracelets, then they wouldn't have enough money to spend cleaning the environment. They aren't a jewelry company! The money they collect is for the clean up of this nasty environment we live in. I don't need a trinket in order to contribute for a good cause. Don't complain, contribute.
