This product is the worst. Dangerous Product.  After about a month the steel rods embedded into the waist trainer started digging into my skin.  I first thought it needed to be adjusted, but that was not the case.  I would be driving and the steel rods would start sticking me in the back or sides of my body.  I have the pictures to prove it down below.  There was not warning information about what could happen to your body from the steel rods.  Now, I can not wear a backout dress or top or even a bathing suit because of this bad product.  Please, ladies, BEWARE of this product.  I am contacting the company to see what they say.  Will update you.
