A reasonably priced post-mastectomy bra made of cotton!
I was searching for a cotton bra with good side coverage & with pockets to wear during radiation treatment phase. Because I am seam sensitive and have lymphedema to r chest and r back, I turned the bra inside out to wear. I will add a piece of cotton to cover the hook & eye area that now faces my chest. This bra is the most comfortable of mastectomy bras considering the low price--most cost upwards of $50.00 or over $100.00! I purchased a 38 (not band 38, just 38) and it fits. I was a 38 C prior to surgery; have lost 10# and a breast, but still ordering a 38 for many garments which continue to fit properly. If only they made this with elbow length sleeves so my upper arm lymphedema could be addressed while wearing this!

Cotton Front Closure bra for night or day
It fits perfectly. It is so comfortable that I can even where it at night with no problem. I also where it to work out in and I love it! I would highly recommend using both the seller and buying the product to anyone who is looking for a similar item. Of course I feel very comfortable in saying that I would highly recommend using this particular seller and of course buying the product to anyone who is looking for the same or a similar item. It was an excellent buying experience all the way around and I would of course purchase the product again from the same seller because we are very happy with it all in all. Thank you for taking the time to read this review and please feel free to ask me any and all questions that are related to this particular product.

Very disappointed
First of all, the description says that a closure extender is included with the bra. I did not get the extender. Second, it claims that a 38 band size fits woman who normally wears a 38c. However, it serves more as a chest compressor than a flattering bra. My sports bra doesn't flatten as much as this one. There is not enough room in the bra cup for a breast fuller than an A. It is suitable for a woman who has had a double-mastectomy. I'm giving it away to a breast cancer clinic so someone can get use out of it.

Be very careful with the sizing!
The fabric and construction were fantastic, it feels very substantial and far exceeded my expectations in that regard. Unfortunately, the sizing wasn't quite as expected, and the garment measures at least six or seven inches less than the measurement it is sold under. I might actually be underselling that error, because the larger sizes are so small the disparity might amount to even a nine or ten inch difference at the tightest part of the band. Realistically, this means that even if you are adding five inches to your underbust measurement and then rounding up an additional inch, this is still going to be too small.To put that difference in perspective, I received a size 44, and the tightest part of the band actually only measured 34 inches around, while the loosest area measured only 36. The tightest part of the band does stretch, but not nearly enough to accomodate that kind of gap. That's more than a negligible difference, even if the garment did come with the pictured extender, which it does not.Using peculiar alchemy to determine your bra size is standard in some companies, but because the sizing here is so unusual it would appear the liklihood of getting a comfortable fit on the first try seems rather low. Still, if you can find the size meant for you it's extremely well made and comfortable, so it's probably worth a try.

I like the fit...
It fits well, which is what I was worried about from the other reviews. I also like the large opening for inserts. It makes it easier then many mastectomy bras to insert and remove breast forms. I am not totally sold on the five hooks in the front. I like that it is a front closing bra, but I don't trust that all those hooks will be easy to close – we will see.

Excellent post-surgical support!
Needed a front close, wire free bra after an unexpected open heart surgery. I ordered this from my hospital bed and two days later was very pleased with the support and ease of use for the hook and eye closure. Has made my recovery that much faster since I am not pulling at my sternum wound as I would without this bra. Highly recommended.

Mediocre quality
I bought this for comfort and for ease of closure, but it’s poorly made and the fasteners are very uncomfortable. Lesson learned--you usually get what you pay for.

Great fitting and comfortable bra. First I've found to fill my post mastectomy needs.
Love that this is pocketed. My double mastectomy bras were uncomfortable and even painful with heavy prostheses. This is really comfy and looks great with lighter prosthetic breasts. Have already ordered more!
