PLAYTEXWomen's Wireless Bra, 18 Hour Plus-Size Bras Available, Front Close, Supportive, 4695

Love these comfortable, inexpensive bras! I have been ordering for several years. I stopped being able to fasten bras in the back MANY years ago and these work great for me and my very large size needs.

I needed a new bra. Easy to order, fit great , color and comfort were excellent!

The front hook digs and make my skin pealing. I had to leave a gauze under to protect my skin from breaking further. Too sad

I love the support that the 18 hour bra gives me. Fit is perfect. Perfect color. And a very good value for your money.

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

I was really hoping I’d like this one. After all, it’s a brand I like and that fits me well (usually) and I like their designs. Usually. Unfortunately the edges are lined with some sort of scalloped lace that irritates my skin around the straps and under the breasts.There’s only one line of hooks, and there does seem to be a little shrinkage after washing (or maybe I gained weight in one week, I don’t know, ugh). So it’s not adjustable around the chest. I do like the straps. Those are comfortable. Plenty of support for my D-sized girls. The front cuts just a hair too much into the front of my underarm and with that scalloped edge it gets increasingly irritating during the day.I was planning on buying more since my left shoulder suddenly got painful and I can’t , but I’ll have to go with another newer (?) brand without the edging and more adjustability in the front.The beige is good, and yes, it gives good support.

I broke my greater tuberosity a couple years ago and will never be able to hook a bra in the back. These bras are perfect! Not only did they work well for me but I have used this same bra in back hooks for years. I am thrilled to have these. Stand up to so many washings. I will never be without these!

Love the front closure
