I own 4 of these as they were the closest I could get to my size in a actual store. I loved them for the longest time and have worn them so much that they are almost all in pieces but in saying that I did have some problems. The gore never touched, the bands have stretched a lot over time and the straps never have stayed tight. But mostly they have been one of the best bras I have ever owned and would have been perfect if they come in a larger cup size.

I have only had this bra for a day, so I can't say yet if it stretches over time or any other factors that are only revealed after prolonged use. I will just say what I have found so far.

This bra is really quite comfortable, so it lives up to that claim. The fabric is very soft and smooth, they use the same fabric for the front of the straps as they do for the cups. The cups are lined but not at all padded. The wings are lined with a very soft mesh. The colour is on the pale pink-beige side of the 'nude' spectrum. This is ... not the most exciting bra to look at, but it is great under the tight cotton babydoll t-shirts I love so much.
It is a snug fit in the band on the loosest hook. Since most brands will fit me tightly with a size 10, this bra may run a little tight in the band. I chose the 12D because my breasts are fairly wide and seperate and I found this was the size that fit the most snugly while having the underwire fit around all of the breast tissue.
The straps are very comfortable, wide and soft without being too wide for my preferences. They are only adjustable at the back, and while they are long enough for me they are only just so. Somebody who tends to need long straps may find these won't be long enough for them. As it is, if I don't keep the straps quite loose (which I prefer anyway) they start to pull up the back of the band.
There is not much in the way of lift, but the shape is pleasantly round. I only just avoid the quadraboob effect, so somebody with breasts that are full on top may have issues with this bra. There is no spillage and no gaps or wrinkles.
While it does provide some support, it hardly eliminates all jiggle. It gives me what I need for normal daily activities, but I won't expect it to keep everything in place if I need to run or jump.
The centre gore is a few mm off my skin, which may be in part due to how seperate my breasts are.
The underwire on one side did press slightly uncomfortably against my ribcage (my ribs are far more prominent on one side than the other), but a few seconds of gently bending the underwire with my fingers seems to have fixed that right up.

All in all, I'm very happy with this bra. I'd recommend it to others who have wide, round breasts and are seeking comfort. I would probably not recommend it to someone with very full-on-top breasts or someone who wants a more narrow, projected shape.
