Very easy to put on with front opening Velcro strips. Comfortable but probably could do with some attractive decoration eg embroidery comfortable and easily manageable.

Not for seniors with farsightedness

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Good shape and comfortable however the way it is clipped in front - not suitable for mature women who wear reading glasses. I can't see the three thingies with or without my reading glasses and I can't put it on unless someone is with me to help. The Velcro makes a bit of a bulge underneath clothes so that's also not an ideal solution. Good - but only for young people who don't suffer from seniors' farsightedness.

Got these to wear after surgery I would recommend getting sized in the shops before purchasing as they know and understand how they should fit with or without surgery dressings.

I needed a bra which fastened at the front due to back fastenings catching on an operation site. I knew I would struggle to pull a bandeau bra over my head but also needed more support than these gave. It was only by chance I thought to look at post opn bras,not expecting to find exactly what I need. Pockets for my prosthesis and very comfortable. I have taken off one star as I find the hooks a bit fiddly.

Lovely soft bra.

Nice and comfortable bra with lots of options for adjusting, I needed some others after a mastectomy and reconstruction and only had the one bra the hospital had given me, I bought three online as the shop didn’t have much choice but I was able to try one in the right size with the help of one of the bra fitting ladies who were excellent and very professional. once I had done that I bought three online in white black and nude.very comfortable and soft but I soon gave up on the fiddly hooks and just used the Velcro.much better than other options I ordered online from other companies, also nice that M and S take off the VAT as it’s a post surgery bra.

Post surgery bra

Bought this item following open heart surgery. Good fit and true to size. Comfortable to wear. . Velcro can be a little bulky through a t-shirt. But I didn't mind. Just a note to M&S ÷ maybe an option to add an extra clip and leave out the velcro to allow more air to circulate around wound for healing

Feels nice on . How ever the hooks are really awkward to undo 😕. And I feel they need pads inside because they wrinkle .

Front fastening bra

I bought this as it had really good reviews and as I’m going for surgery thought it would be ideal however what I didn’t realise that the fastenings at front are no good for someone with arthritis. The bra is very soft and appears comfortable I just couldn’t get the fastenings to work also I would size up if you consider buying this for after breast op

I loved the material which has been used for this bra, but unfortunately I did not like the fastening. It made it difficult to close and then on top of that the Velcro which went over the fasting with such a good idea.

Unfit for purpose

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

No, I don't recommend this

I bought this prior to undergoing breast cancer surgery as it was marketed as a post-surgery compression garment. Unfortunately, I found the internal stitching and labels extremely harsh against sensitive surgical scars. The bra was also very itchy and uncomfortable to wear, causing significant discomfort almost immediately. For a garment specifically intended for post-operative recovery, I was surprised by how rough the internal seams felt against healing skin. I ended up buying 2 seamless bras online elsewhere which I have been able to wear comfortably with no issues. I would strongly recommend that M&S review the internal construction of this product, particularly the stitching and labels, as comfort is absolutely essential for anyone recovering from surgery.

Great Quality

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

I bought this post surgery bra due to needing a lumpectomy and mammoplasty on both breasts. The bra offers a good amount of compression to aid recovery. Only negative is it could fit a little lower and the 3 hooks are tricky to fasten and would prove difficult for anyone who does not have dexterity in their fingers.

Good & supportive and soft quality

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Soft and supportive post surgery recovery but the hooks were very difficult to fasten in the front at first and the Velcro quite stiff and bulky, which can be seen through my tops. I have got used to the fastening now but maybe M&S need to review this to create an easier way and sleeker front fastening.
