Works well but I find I don't use it - I'm sure these types of garments are never comfortable, especially when trying to use the restroom.  My torso is very short, and the straps seem a little long, if it stretches at all it will not fit, but I've only washed it once and it seems OK for now. So, I think its a good model if you are used to wearing this type of garment, but its not so terrific that it will convert me to using it regularly.
