Adjustable straps position from front a bonus
Yes, I recommend this
Post thoracic surgery needed a soft front closure bra. This was perfect - once I got used to the closure. The adjustment to the straps at the front was great.

Who designed this?
No, I don't recommend this
This bra was obviously designed by someone who doesn't wear bras. The hook and eyes drive you mad trying to do them up and undo them - so difficult. The velcro has a very hard bottom edge which digs in under your boobs and irritates very badly. The depth is far too shallow, and ends up tucked under your boobs, so you are forever pulling the whole thing down. Overall extremely disappointing. M&S designers please try talking to post-surgery wearers and actually listen to their comments.

Great buy, offered good support
I bought this to help after a lumpectomy, it was brilliant, it's offers great support especially when sleeping, the front fastening is a god send in first week of recovery

Uncomfortable and tricky to fasten
No, I don't recommend this
I found it uncomfortable, the elastic underneath the breast folded creating a hard ridge that cut into my ribs. Too many seams to rub against skin on the side when lymph nodes have been removed. The hook and eyes were difficult to use and stuck in the skin after a couple of hours as with the velcro fastening

Absolutely brilliant. Great fit and practical following my breast cancer surgery.

Post operative comfort 👍
Yes, I recommend this
I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had to have a lumpectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy. This bra has been so comfortable supporting my breast and not rubbing near my incision for the lymph nodes removal. I have dreaded having to wear a bra 24/7 for 6 weeks post op, but I have not been uncomfortable in these at all. They are supportive and definitely helping with pain etc.

Comfortable
Yes, I recommend this
This is a very comfortable bra, very soft but there is one annoying problem with it. The hook and loop fasteners are tiny and awkward to fasten. Even unfastening them at times can be awkward. The velco strip is quite strong but I didn't try it on its own.

Needed to wear bra full time after surgery for 6 weeks . Nice fitting bra . Velcro opening made it easy to open without discomfort. Comfortable on wound site .

Comfy and Soft but…
I bought four of these bras to wear post surgery. They are lovely and soft and comfortable to wear but the front opening hooks are very tricky until you get the hang of them - on my first attempt post surgery I needed a nurse to help me! Also the Velcro sticks to whatever else is in the washing machine unless you close if together before washing. The adjustable straps are good and easy to adjust. I bought a band size bigger than my normal size as I didn’t want anything too tight.

Well intentioned but not for everyone
Yes, I recommend this
Lovely soft fabric but I echo what other reviewers say, that the hooks and loops are fiddly which does not help when one is very sore just after surgery. My suggestion would be to have the hooks in a different colour - silver, rose gold? - so they stand out and are easier to handle. Also this is NOT a bra for short women. I am just under five feet and the straps even at their shortest do not provide sufficient support in that they don't give any protective lift. I had pain wearing it at night and had to switch products. It's a shame as M and S clearly had every good intention when designing the bra, but if you are in the petite height range I suggest it's not for you.

A life saver!
Yes, I recommend this
Had rotator cuff surgery and this bra is a god send as couldn’t put my hand up my back to do my own bra up!! Having bought one to try, I went back to buy some more. This bra is so comfortable, no under wire and actually fits better and holds better than my 38E underwire bras. Highly recommend

these have been the most comfortable bras post mastectomy.

Very comfortable and easy to 'open'
Yes, I recommend this
I am having treatment for breast cancer. The bra was very comfortable post lumpectomy and subsequent use whilst recovering. The eyelets are a bit tricky however I found the velcro worked perfectly initially and then after a couple of times wearing it I got the hang of the eyelets. Fabric is also very soft.

Brilliant bra for after surgery, I have all 3 colours, very comfortable and supportive

Post op bra, comfy but nightmare to do up
No, I don't recommend this
Very soft and comfortable bras after surgery, BUT the fasteners at the front are so difficult to do up. After surgery this is the last thing I needed stressing how to do it up. A normal hook and eye would be better.

Good quality comfortable so I brought 2 colours.

Brought for a specific reason I got 1 in stock in store & ordered 2nd online.
