Customer Reviews Playtex 18 Hour Front Close Wirefree Back Support Posture Full Coverage Bra USE525

The smell when I opened these bras was overpowering. It is some type of chemical or rubber smell. I have washed them in detergent twice, vinegar and baking soda once and soaked them in vinegar for a total of 24 hours. The smell is still there but diminished. If it were summer I'd hang them outside for a few days. The only reason I am keeping these bras is because my others were damaged beyond recognition in the wash. None of the local stores carry my size so I can't easily replace bras. I will never buy these bras again!

Purchased three of these and did not save the sleeves they came in as I know the correct sizing. Therefore, I could not return them. When I went to wear the first one, the smell hit me in the face! They stink of "burned rubber". I went on line and found other comments about bras having this odor. No one seems to know what causes it. I soaked the three bras in a molecular odor remover made for pet stains. Left them in it for two full days. Then laundered the bras in washing machine with a Tide Febreze formula and let them "air dry". They are still hanging in the basement. And there is a slight smell STILL after all this. Don't know whether I will ever be able to tolerate the odor and use these. They may end up in the trash. Have never had this issue with a NEW Playtex bra ever before. Beware before buying these.

This is the same style of bra that I have worn for years, and I am not sure what has changed, but it is incredibly uncomfortable. Sorry, but it's the truth.

I bought this two weeks ago and with the first washing the hook on the closure twisted around so that it is not even fixable. I need to buy a bra repair kit to fix it and I wore it only once. Useless!

I HATE THE 18 HOUR NEW BRAS! THEY ARE MUCH SMALLER THAN ALL THE OTHER MODELS AND ARE NOT A TRUE SIZE

I returned this bra. I found it very uncomfortable. The straps would not stay up, it was very stiff and the side fabric had a strange odor when it was wet from perspiration or washing. I also thought is was too stiff. I purchased two, returned one.

I bought this bra and I should of known better. I usually buy the bras that have the strap adjustment in the front and this one doesn't. It's uncomfortable to me. Plus the bra cup is this shiny material. The reason I bought Is that the bra I usually buy doesn't come in a bigger size. I will return it.

This bra was the size I wear but it would not go on because the elastic was sooo tight! I have returned it! Waiting on a refund! I have bought that type before at other stores and had no problem. I won't buy it again fron this website.

It didn't work - it didn't fit - it was much too big in the cup - sizing is not right. So disappointed.

I had to return the 4 bras. The cup size was miles bigger than my recently measured and fitted cup size. I have never had this experience with a Playtex 18 Hour Bra in the past.
