PLAYTEXWomen's 18 Hour 4695 Front-Close Wireless Bra with Flex Back, Full Coverage Bra, Cushioned Straps

Fantastic support, soft and true to size!I love this bra and have bought multiples.Because it has such great support, this is also my "go to" bra for workouts.More comfortable than my expensive underwires but at a fraction of the price.The front closure makes it easy to put on.One note, it only has one row of hooks so it can't be adjusted to make wider or tighter so be sure to order the correct size.

Ladies , as I unwrapped my bra 48DD I expected another uncomfortable bra, BUT NO,. I couldn't believe it IT was soft , white in color , I took it out looked at it , the bra has wide straps that feel very comfortable on. I put on this new bra, arms in and buckled up the front and could not believe it is the first ever most comfortable bra I have ever, ever owned. Fits wonderfully. I immediately ordered 3 more. The back is very supportive and did not curl up , sit exactly where it should , feels very supportive. Ladies measure yourself across the bust area and under your breasts and read the measurements and order. Perfect perfect.

Nice bra, but not comfortable for me. Cup doesn’t fit right.

Love these bras. Have bought several dozen over the years. I like a firm-fitting bra which gives good support to my 38C bust. The front closure makes easy on, easy off. I don’t currently have a problem reaching backwards to hook a bra, but for anyone who has had shoulder mobility problems, arthritis, arm fractures, or any other arm flexibility issues, this front closure bra is a rational choice. The wide straps stay in place no matter what. Colors are standard white, light beige, or black. Mostly cotton fabric makes this bra comfortable in heat. If you’re looking for sexy, probably this one wouldn’t do. But for all other purposes it’s great.

I needed new bras post-bypass surgery. Bras that fit, were easy to put on and fastened in front. I first ordered my old size, 44C. Bra was comfortable, band fit, but cup was huge. Tried again with a 44 B. Once again was comfortable, band fit, but cup size was still too large. Would have tried with an A cup, but apparently they don't stock or make those. I am 77 yrs old and the old girls aren't what they use to be. But a B cup should have fit. I don't want a bra i have to stuff with tissues to smooth out the wrinkles! If you're not post-menopausal this bra should work well for you. Older gals beware.

This is an update to my December 8th review when I rated the bra at two stars. I never did wear this bra out of the house, but I was determined to have it fit properly so that I could comfortably wear it outside of the house. I purchased a pack of the 6 hook bra extenders. The use of 1 extender was not successful in adding enough room to connect the front of the bra properly! When I used 2 bra extenders, the fit was what I had been hoping for from the time I ordered it -- a front closure with a firm fit. However, there was still the issue of hooking the bra while still trying to keep the lace that covered the line of hooks, free from damage while manipulating each set of hooks for proper, and successful closure. The first three hooks, beginning from the bottom, were hooking successfully. In trying to hook the fourth hook, the third hook unhooked itself and continued to do so every time I hooked the ones above it. I switched to hooking them from the top, but the success of that technique was dismal, because the hooks, both above and below unhooked themselves. The entire incident was a lesson for me in ordering underwear online -- unless it's the very design and size I have ordered no more than 6-9 months before, I need to skip it in favor of trying it on in a store that carries the item, which would allow me to know before I leave the store the design, size and firmness of the item I'm shopping for.Review I wrote in early December: Historically, I've purchased this bra a number of times, but at the time it was an underwire. I measured to assure I was going to have a correct size. I wanted a bra that would give me independence from relying on my husband to hook my bra in the back. Unfortunately, I have a major issue that prevents me from hooking my bra in the front also. I'm very disappointed to find that this bra won't allow me to put it on and hook it closed. I have arthritic hands, and my hands have weakened with age. I was able to loosen the straps to give me more room. I used a four hook bra extender I had on hand, and that wasn't able to do the job. I have on order a six hook extender and I hope that will allow me to manage getting the bra on. For all of you thinking about purchasing this bra, it's important to know why this bra may not be satisfactory for some women. In order to describe how the bra is made to avoid relying an underwire it has higher sides and a taller back for extra side and back support, fuller cups and wide straps. Plus, a criss cross flex elastic back that adjusts for an all day custom fit. In order to make the bra more attractive, there is a pattern on the front of the bra, and lace has been added. The major issue with the lace is that it is added up and down the six hook closure, and it lays over the hooks to hide that they are there. I can not move the hooks that need to close the bra together. There's too much resistance so that without the full use of my hands , the bra'sconstruction fails me. Having to move the lace out of the way in order to get to the line of hooks is impossible with the condition of my hands. I'm not able to pull the front of the bra . The criss cross elastic design that creates the flex support in the back is, simply too stiff. Additionally, the lace just won't stay clear of the the hooks for me to get them hooked. Having said all of that, for the great majority of women, this bra might be the one of choice. We all are different.SEE UPDATE --> One star review update: 01/05/2022

This bra fits perfectly. This brand understands plus-sized women and I am very satisfied with my purchase. All the label descriptions are true: extra side support, fuller cups, extra back support, comfort strap. A dream fit! Thank you, Playtex 18 hour!

I had a lumpectomy and lymph node removal for cancer about 23 years ago. As a result, my breasts are 2 different sizes and shapes. Initially, I continued wearing the same bras I had because the difference was not very noticeable. However, as I’ve gotten older, the difference has become more pronounced, not just the sizes, but also the shapes, with the unaffected side being more pendulous. As a result, most bras don’t support that side. I have tried very expensive bras and even tried using a push-up pad on that one side. The pads worked on some bras, but on others it would fall out. Embarrassing! I can’t wear underwire bras because of the lymph node removal. So I decided to try this bra because I thought the front hook style might work better. And since they are not expensive, I thought it would be worth trying. So I bought one just to try out. In order to give it a good workout, I wore it for a week straight and then washed it in the washing machine. It held out beautifully! And it held me up on both sides perfectly and was very comfortable. So I ordered 2 more and I love them! I highly recommend this bra for anyone who has had breast surgery for cancer or anyone who just needs more support without underwires.

Cómodo, tallas exactas, volveré a comprar!

The fit was perfect and was just what I ordered.

My mother is a senior and had difficulty with the back closure bras.This bra fit true to size and my mother can easily manage the front closure on her own.

Me gusto mucho, pocos brassiers se abrochan por delante, los tirantes son gruesos y no lastiman bien terminado buena marca

Fits well and as advertised.
