The bra is comfortable with not too much pressure on my shoulders because of the slightly wider strap.  I bought my normal size of 36DD.  I found the cups to be a little bigger than I have normally found in the same size.  Not hugely, and they might shrink slightly when I wash the bra today.  My husband likes the way it makes the girls look.  They are lifted quite nicely and separated.

I hate wearing a bra all day no matter what.  Without the underwire I don't feel that I get enough support, so after a while I am aware of the wire bothering me.  This has been the same with every bra I wear.  It's just a fact of life.  It's no different with this bra. However, all in all, I am satisfied with this bra and would recommend it.
