This was a comfortable bra the first day that I wore it. It might have been comfortable beyond that had one of the wires not starting poking out of the bra after just one day. Obviously, this is a low-quality, yet high priced item.

Aviana Response: We have very tight quality controls over our sewing and every component of our bras. I assure you, our bras are not cheaply made. They are made from USA manufactured fabrics in a USA owned facility in Costa Rica. Our bras are strong and supportive all the way to 56 bands and M cups. If the bra happened to be defective, please contact HerRoom for a replacement. Debbie from Boise, ID, USA

When I first put this bra on, it fit, it was really comfortable, and I was so happy. But as I wore it, the middle no longer sat against my chest and my breasts began to slip out of the cups. I'm very unhappy with this bra. If I hadn't worn it, I would be returning it. Rachel from Toledo

I liked the bra and kept it, but have one complaint: If a woman wants a MINIMIZER, that means, to me, that she doesn't want her chest to look as big as it is. So, can someone tell me why minimizers are so few and when you can find one, they aren't underwires and/or the cups only go up to a G. An underwire gives the best support to big, heavy breasts, in my opinion. Why don't the sizes go higher? I needed an "I" cup or at the least, an "H" - but G was the highest offered. It does make me appear smaller, but I have substantial spillage over the top, which forces the middle of the bra outward, and that shows in most of the tops I wear. I kept it, even though it was expensive, because I wanted a minimizer. HERROOM - can't you speak to your suppliers about offering bigger sized cups in the minimizer? Why do they think a woman even WANTS a minimizer!

HerRoom Response: Minimizers only go up to G cup sizing, because larger breast simply can't be minimized. A minimizer reduces breast projection by distributing breast tissue under arms, further up the chest, and in towards the cleavage. Larger breasts simply already have breast tissue in those places already, so there is no other place to put it. I hope this answers your question. Jackie from Cuyahoga Falls, OH

This is the world's best minimizer. I have tried at least 20 - 30 and this is the only one that I can wear all day comfortably and it truly makes my shirts fit properly. I am 5'4 and 140 lbs so having breast this large makes it difficult to find clothes that fit properly considering they are larger than my size should be. This bra truly does take your clothes down a size or two. It also last forever! I just throw them in the wash by themselves on gentle and let them air dry. Mine usually last at least a year. I've got some that are 2 years old and I'm still wearing them. You just can't go wrong with this bra. Marilyn from BA, OK

I like this bra it is comfortable and fits well. It has a full cup which I prefer. I have to buy bras at this web site as it's the only one that has the correct sizes band and cup. Stacey from Brandon, FL, USA

I love this bra! It fits great, very comfortable and does the job of minimizing, yet supporting. Love the wider straps too. I'm going to order 2 more. Melinda from Tulsa, OK

This is the best fitting, most comfortable minimizer I have ever worn and I've tried tons. It does flatten you out, but you will be able to wear at least one size smaller and a much standard fit. Marilyn from Tulsa, OK, United States

I hesitate to give it stars, because although I didn't like it, it was a perfectly good bra. Does it "minimize." Yes it does. I guess I do not want to be minimized that much. For me, just do not feel like I look very natural in that shape. I feel sorry for bra designers. Really. We ask of them the impossible! Tina from Baltimore, MD

This is the most comfortable and non jiggling bra I have ever owned. I like the thick straps, the support and the minimizing. It's my new favorite bra. S from Darien, CT, USA

I really like that the straps are cushy and comfy, but they are firm in that they don't allow for "bounce." I like to feel "locked and loaded" and this bra does the trick! My breasts are nicely rounded in this bra (not pointy like some bras make them) and it definitely minimizes my DDs. Natalie from Chicago, IL

This bra is well made and does a good job of minimizing. I have tried minimizers in several other brands, but this one works the best. Marilyn from Great Falls, MT, United States

Hands down the best bra I've ever worn. No other one compares when I am dressed and see the difference between this bra and any other brand. I've tried them all. Aviana lite minimizer. I've worn them until they fell apart-literally. Finally found them again. Marie from Drexel Hill PA USA

One of the only minimizers available in "G" cup. Submitted from TheUndies.com

Did not like the way it made my breasts look so wide, like they protruded over the sides of my body. Pressed them in and out rather than a nice shaped minimizing function.

Aviana Response: This bra is a full size minimizer (reduces your projection a full cup size), and that tissue has to go somewhere. In the 34G, a G cup breast would be compressed and rounded nicely without tissue under the arm nor pressed inward creating pillow cleavage. I suspect if you had that much breast pushing to each side, you may need an H cup bra. The 2460 is not yet available in H, but we are working on it. J S from Forest, VA, USA

This is the most comfortable bra I have worn in a long time. It seems to minimize without squashing everything. It is just very supportive. I have been trying various bras of all makers and price ranges and I like this one the best. I will be purchasing more. Vicki from Illinois

I like the wide comfort shoulder strap and the narrow 2 hook back. It is very comfortable. Dorothy

This bra was very comfortable. I like the way my tops fit while wearing it. It was a snug fit with the band at first, but after a few wearings it feels great. Deb from WV

This is a very comfortable bra and it minimizes quite well. No "digging", no riding up....I only gave it 4 stars, though, because I measure a true 36 and the band was very tight the first few times I wore this bra. I had to put it on the last hook. Then, after a few wearings, I am now on the first set of hooks....even after washing and drip-drying. Kind of puzzling....but now it is even more comfortable. A great product at a great price.

It is a nice bra-but wish the cup size went up to H. 38G is consistently my size, but this ran small. I needed to go one size up. Rhonda from NJ

This is the second time I buy this particular bra. It is an ideal minimizer, reducing projection so that my contour appears smaller, more 'compact.' The seamless cups look great under a tee and the padded straps, although wider than I like, make for great comfort (no gouging into the shoulders). No gaps or bulges and washes well. One minor negative: it squeaks! When I first put it on and adjust "the girls" but NOT all day long. However, this flaw does lessen with washings. I will definitely purchase again.

HerRoom Response: The squeaking you are hearing happens when the casing around the underwire is sewn a little too tightly. With time and washing, this little sound usually goes away. Chris from NJ

It flattened my front and pushed it all out to the side. Arm boobs are just not attractive. Back to Wacoal!

HerRoom Response: A minimizer moves your breast tissue under your arms and up your chest in order to reduce your projection so that you can wear a button down blouse. Susan from LA

This bra didn't give me the support I thought it would according to the reviews and write up. It's a bra for around the house but definitely not for work or going out. Very disappointed. It minimized ok but I don't recommend for fuller cup sizes.

Aviana Response: You might need a 40H – please try the 2457 bra and see if perhaps it’s the size that isn’t working for you, not the style!
