Mandala CraftsBodhi Seed Mala Beads 108 Buddhist Prayer Beads - Tibetan Rosary Bodhi Mala Necklace for Men Women Yoga Meditation

Love my new mala. A bit more on the expensive side compared to others on here, but well worth it. Beads feel great in your hand and the string seems strong.

Very functional for counting and beautifully made.

Good bead size for my large hands; sturdy construction; each bead is unique which adds to the experience.

THe product came in on time and was displayed beautifully, however, I did not anticipate it being so long, I'm 5'9'' and the beads go down to my navel. either way, I love the product, would purchase again.

I had previously purchased 6mm beads. Those turned out to be way to small, and the string/band broke within a couple months. These 12 mm beads are perfect and the string/band feels stronger than the previous set.

If it matters to you, the cord is not elastic. The perfect beads are larger than many malas. The bag fabric is good quality & the embroidery is just perfect. Thank you for an excellent product.

I like the way it looks, but as they say, looks aren't everything; if the seller used stainless steel or fishing line, the string would hold up longer; mine started to fray a couple months after using it only 1x / day for meditation. The problem with mine was quality control not ensuring that when the hole(s) are drilled, they are checked for rough edges on both sides of the bead.I did attempt to contact the seller, and after no response for several days, I contacted Amazon today, explained the situation to an associate, and after weighing my options out loud, the associate took VERY GOOD care of me (to my surprise since the return window had passed); being cordial and polite pays off big!I gave it 3 stars because of the aggravation factor, but the Bodhi seeds all look different as nature would have it, so I believe it is authentic, and the overall quality is there. I do, however, need to re-string it myself.So it may look prettier with the type of colored line they use, but I would not buy it again unless I was given the option for a stronger line.
