Comfort

Pros:

  • "They fit like a dream and are more comfortable than any bra I’ve ever worn."
  • "These are so comfortable. They feel like practically nothing but still offer support."
  • "I can wear it all day."
  • "Love love love LOVE THESE BRAS! I’m all bout comfort and I hate padding so these were ideal."
  • "They are super comfortable."
  • "It's so comfortable that I forget that I have it on!"
  • "Very comfortable. Does't scratch or pinch and it has elastic straps which is a must for me."

Cons:

  • "The only con is that the edge at the bottom of the bra folds up when I'm wearing it."
  • "The underwire cuts in a bit because I can't make the bra any looser."
  • "Sadly the elastic was way too scratchy and tough for my sensitive skin."
  • "Tried one on and immediately felt the clasp had some prickly, pokey quality on my back."
  • "The straps are not the most comfortable, scratchy or something, I think it's the stitching."
  • "This bra was super tight, itchy, and completely uncomfortable."
  • "Awful. Zero support, might as well not wear a bra."

Fit and Sizing

Pros:

  • "They fit well."
  • "Been wearing them and washing them quite frequently still look brand new fit perfectly."
  • "The fit is amazing, the band is so comfortable, it doesn’t dig in or chafe on the sides like my Victoria secret bras have always done."
  • "The sizing on these bras are spot on!"
  • "I am a 34 C/D and these fit beautifully right out of the package."
  • "I ordered a B38 and I am covered, fully supported, and comfortable."
  • "True to size, with a lot of comfortable stretch."

Cons:

  • "I could barely close the bra because of how small the band was."
  • "Cup size is NOT correct. Very small."
  • "The bra is so small that I feel like it's a C cup size."
  • "The product is as described but the cups are so far apart that they look to add about 20 pounds."
  • "The actual breast area is not a D cup! It is comfortable and underwire lays flat. Smashes my well shaped breasts in and unfortunately a bit low."
  • "I’ve been buying this item for years. Not sure if they changed mfgs or what but the size I normally buy was way too small."
  • "But they are almost 5 inches smaller than the bra I previously bought!"

Material and Quality

Pros:

  • "Simple, cotton, unlined, underwire bra. My favorite!"
  • "I wanted something mostly cotton as natural fabrics are best for the skin."
  • "These fit right, are a nice cotton, don't scratch and give me a nice shape."
  • "The material is very soft and had zero padding which is what I prefer due to already having a large chest."
  • "Love the soft cotton."
  • "Fabric is super soft and comfortable on the skin."
  • "If you want a nice quality cotton bra you should try this."

Cons:

  • "I guess you can’t have 100% cotton if you want stretch."
  • "This had sort of a rough scratchy material."
  • "The material is less appealing than I hoped."
  • "Fabric is very thin which doesn't make them very sturdy."
  • "The bras have exposed synthetic and elastic materials that make them unwearable for gals like me with multiple chemical sensitivity and sensitive skin that reacts to scratchy, synthetic materials like the exposed elastic and synthetic netting between the cups."
  • "Cheap scratchy cotton, and the fit was horribly small."
  • "After three months of wear, all of these bras are pilled."

Durability and Care

Pros:

  • "So far has laundered well."
  • "They last a long time if laundered in a bag and hung out to dry."
  • "I've been washing them in cold water in a lingerie/net bag and air drying."
  • "They wash well in a laundry bag and dry in the dryer no noticeable shrinkage."
  • "I think my prior purchase lasted about 3 1/2 years and I washed them a lot."
  • "Seems to keep its fit and support after about a dozen washes now."
  • "I live in Chandler Arizona where the temps average 110 in the summer and I love how my girls don't feel like they are in a fire pit like you do with normal bras."

Cons:

  • "I've had a couple of them break (wire popping through) after a million washes but at that price it really doesn't bother me."
  • "The band does stretch after a short period of time, but they still last decently long."
  • "The only frustration is that the elastic is wearing much faster than in the earlier years."
  • "All of the bras I have from this manufacturer have squeaky underwires - the fabric squeaks against the metal at random times."
  • "The underwire WILL come out if you dry them in the dryer!"
  • "Just don't put it in the dryer because it will shrink."
  • "I just love these bra's but if I had one complaint it would be that the wire wants to tear threw the material and stick out the ends and that really hurts."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Great product for the price."
  • "These are a huge bang for your Buck."
  • "I can't believe how much I love these cheap bras."
  • "Holy crap all the other reviews are right, this is a perfect bra and it's only $7."
  • "You get what you pay for - I wanted these as a comfortable, inexpensive option over fancier, more expensive products."
  • "Great for the price."
  • "Definitely worth the buy."

Cons:

  • "The overall quality isn't great - the clips on the straps slide, so it's hard to keep the correct level of support."
  • "This bra is okay but stretches out quickly."
  • "Not sure how long they'll last as they are very lightweight, but that's what is great about them - especially for summer."
  • "However, the photo says two white bras, the copy says two white bras, but I have been sent two sets in the past week, one as a replacement for the other, and both times I have received one white bra and one blue with white polka dots."
  • "I wish they offered the option of getting one color per package because I can only wear one of the bras because the other, although marked my size is too small."
  • "I accidently ended up getting the grey and nude-colored set with lace on the straps and front. I wished I had looked more closely at the information, since the lace looks awful and defeats the purpose of offering a nude-colored option."
  • "I cannot / will not wear these to work (middle school teacher) which was the reason I bought them."
