Pros: Fit, ease of use, durability
Cons: Shows under v-neck shirts, "uni-boob" look
Ah, good old faithful! This was my go-to bra for my first four kids. It was, in 2004, one of the only non-terrifying options available in my size (32/34 J at that time, yikes).
Pros = snap openings were very easy to use. I think they've switched to a more commonly found one-handed release, which is equally easy to use. These bras were incredibly durable - survived more than three years of breastfeeding, including 15 months with twins! Supportive, comfortable, wash well.
Cons = not very sexy, for sure. The regular and plus sizes have a "cross-over" style that is more attractive under clothing. The double-plus, industrial strength version comes up very high in the center of the front, and often shows under clothing. Also, it can give a bit of the "uni-boob" look.
Bottom line, a good value, comfortable and supportive. Not for a night on the town, and maybe not even for going to work in work clothing (?), but great around the house/on errands with kids, etc. Long-lasting.
