I'd give this 5 stars if it wasn't so darn hard to get into.  But, once it is pulled up (and you get an assist for the back) it is nice to have a smooth front as opposed to those which hook up. I have both now and can really wear this one under smooth fitting garments while the hooks are slightly visible under similar outfits using the other. My advice then would be to buy TWO since the other model is much easier to use. I do like the panty and it stays in place quite well while those with no panty tend to roll. You'll  love the way you look!
