MaidenformWomen's Waist Trainer Shapewear, Tummy Control Waist Cincher with Lace, Ultra Firm Control Corset

Okay I absolutely LOVE this!! Love, love, love it! I wasn't expecting much but it's legit the most comfortable waist trainer I've ever worn. I usually wear a L and sometimes XL. My waist is 36 inches and hips 44. I sized down to a medium and I'm glad I did. The material feels cooling and smooth against my skin. Not hot at all. Even though it's tight, I hardly notice it's on. I don't want to take it off at all. I have weird sensory issues too and feel hot and uncomfortable easily. It's also long enough, when I sit down the bottom sits just above my pelvic bone and top about an inch underneath my bust. It is sooo pretty too. I can't believe it was only $15. I'm defffinitely buying more. Highly recommend, great product!!!Edit: I just measured my waist with it on and it's taken off a full 2 1/2 inches with it on. My waist is 36 inches without it and 33 1/2 with it!

Does the job and feels comfortable.

So I couldn't decide between the Flexees vs. the Squeem shapewear so I bought both to compare. To be honest I kept both but here's some feedback if it helps anyone.I am 5'4", 130lbs, 35" bust, 30.5"waist, 35" hips.If you are looking for good waist control the Flexees definitely does the job at a GREAT price. I bought the medium and it fits perfectly (it was hard to pick a size after reading all the reviews). I can wear it for hours, but definitely after 8 hours you will start noticing the boning jabbing into your chest. I am not well endowed but if you are I would imagine it would be a lot more painful/troublesome. Bottom line though, it really smooths out my sides and gives me curves where I don't really have them. I wear it interchangeably with the Squeem (described below). I never wore any kind of waist controller before a few months ago and now I'm addicted. I didn't think I would want to wear them everyday but it's actually quite comfortable and keeps my posture. I don't know about the reviews that say to wear it backwards....I wear it w/the closures in the front and it looks/works great.The Squeem is made out of a weird material I thought I would hate but it's also quite comfortable. The Squeem definitely has firmer control and pulls my waist in a little bit more. I can also wear this for about 8 hours a day before I really start noticing it. I bought this in the medium and to my surprise it came with 2 rows of eye hooks that give you about 1/2 inch option (i.e. tighter if you want it). I think this extra row is great. This is more expensive than the Flexee but gives firmer control. There is a "plastic" smell but other people won't notice it and you only notice it when you are taking in on/off.I have a pair of Spanx. Don't bother buying any kind of control from them. They don't do as good of a job, and in order for them to stay put they need to snap at the crotch (really annoying when it's bathroom time) AND they have straps that pull on your shoulders. And they are insanely expensive compared to Flexees or Squeems.Bottom line - worth the price and works well

I must be way fatter than I thought. Usually I get stuff that is way too big for me so I was concerned I’d do it again. I wear an XL and thought a L may stretch and work better. Nope. It was like a can of biscuits busting out. I have never been more disgusted by my body. I pulled it down a little lower over the top of my shelf butt and wow…it looked absolutely horrible. I has a bunch of weird lumps and handles all over the place. It was awful. I could not hook it all the way up. I guess I need to be more careful. Make sure you go realistic with your size and keep your height in mind. I’m 5’4 185-190 lbs so my torso is short and it went over my butt if I pulled it down. I don’t like how it was right under my boobs. This is really all my fault for picking the wrong size so it may work for you. Just wondering if I should reorder the correct size or go to a gym.

Best out of the 3 I tried recently!Edit to add: ok I wore a very thin tank under it (like a chemise under a corset) - total game changer! I wore this for 9 hours yesterday, at work!, And was totally comfortable the whole time. Granted, it was a cold winter day, so idk how comfortable it would be mid summer! But it was like being in a snug cocoon all day. I have a fairly physical job, lots of moving and lifting and carrying, and my movements weren't hindered by wearing this at all. I was more conscious of *how* I moved, but I was able to move as needed. No hooks popped open over.the course of the day. My original plan was to wear it till lunchtime and then take it off. But I was still comfortable by lunch, so I just left it on and wore it for the rest of my shift - no regrets!The hooks were a challenge to close - I wasn't actually sure I'd get them all closed 😅. But once I did, I was very pleased with the fit! And I'd rather take the time to go hook by hook and close it up, then struggle in and out of a pull-on girdle! I wasn't sure I'd get the last one off, and this was a dream to get off in comparison!I've only worn it under jeans to make dinner so far (planning to wear it to a dance) but I was able to move and bend just fine. It's not exactly*pleasant* to wear but ...that's kind of expected! And it provides better tummy control for a small tummy than any others I've found. I just have a little pudge I want smoothed over and this was the best yet for that.It does give you back fat where you never had back fat before 😜. But I guess it's got to go somewhere! And if I put it *right* at my bra line, it smushes the back fat a bit too. Pulling it down an inch seems to create more back fat.It wasn't the *most* comfortable around the bustline, but it just felt like any slightly ichy bra might so...I can live with that!If I can remember, I'll update after the dance. I'm hopeful that it doesn't pop open under extreme movement 😅. So I guess we'll see! I don't really want to wear it to work, so I don't have a chance to really test it out.
