Fits good, does the job; will it last?
I ordered the size 3x by measurement though I’m wearing size 1X in tops, swimsuits, belts—my waist is much smaller than my legs. But I ordered in 2x also and it’s too small; the 3x is what fits at the waist and hips so I’d say they run super small, but go by measurements not by size. Also, I had an abdominoplasty so am not flabby in the torso, certainly will not work on a flabbier body.It is a squeeze to close the eyelets but once the bottom one is done they go on pretty easily. It is comfortable because of some stretch though I have only used it at home right now, pulled in and smoothed out a couple of inches on the hips where I lost weight since my surgery.I’m hoping it will hold up in the long run, sending back the white one for a 3x.

Best I've found yet
Best out of the 3 I tried recently!Edit to add: ok I wore a very thin tank under it (like a chemise under a corset) - total game changer! I wore this for 9 hours yesterday, at work!, And was totally comfortable the whole time. Granted, it was a cold winter day, so idk how comfortable it would be mid summer! But it was like being in a snug cocoon all day. I have a fairly physical job, lots of moving and lifting and carrying, and my movements weren't hindered by wearing this at all. I was more conscious of *how* I moved, but I was able to move as needed. No hooks popped open over.the course of the day. My original plan was to wear it till lunchtime and then take it off. But I was still comfortable by lunch, so I just left it on and wore it for the rest of my shift - no regrets!The hooks were a challenge to close - I wasn't actually sure I'd get them all closed 😅. But once I did, I was very pleased with the fit! And I'd rather take the time to go hook by hook and close it up, then struggle in and out of a pull-on girdle! I wasn't sure I'd get the last one off, and this was a dream to get off in comparison!I've only worn it under jeans to make dinner so far (planning to wear it to a dance) but I was able to move and bend just fine. It's not exactly*pleasant* to wear but ...that's kind of expected! And it provides better tummy control for a small tummy than any others I've found. I just have a little pudge I want smoothed over and this was the best yet for that.It does give you back fat where you never had back fat before 😜. But I guess it's got to go somewhere! And if I put it *right* at my bra line, it smushes the back fat a bit too. Pulling it down an inch seems to create more back fat.It wasn't the *most* comfortable around the bustline, but it just felt like any slightly ichy bra might so...I can live with that!If I can remember, I'll update after the dance. I'm hopeful that it doesn't pop open under extreme movement 😅. So I guess we'll see! I don't really want to wear it to work, so I don't have a chance to really test it out.

Better than Spanx
So I couldn't decide between the Flexees vs. the Squeem shapewear so I bought both to compare. To be honest I kept both but here's some feedback if it helps anyone.I am 5'4", 130lbs, 35" bust, 30.5"waist, 35" hips.If you are looking for good waist control the Flexees definitely does the job at a GREAT price. I bought the medium and it fits perfectly (it was hard to pick a size after reading all the reviews). I can wear it for hours, but definitely after 8 hours you will start noticing the boning jabbing into your chest. I am not well endowed but if you are I would imagine it would be a lot more painful/troublesome. Bottom line though, it really smooths out my sides and gives me curves where I don't really have them. I wear it interchangeably with the Squeem (described below). I never wore any kind of waist controller before a few months ago and now I'm addicted. I didn't think I would want to wear them everyday but it's actually quite comfortable and keeps my posture. I don't know about the reviews that say to wear it backwards....I wear it w/the closures in the front and it looks/works great.The Squeem is made out of a weird material I thought I would hate but it's also quite comfortable. The Squeem definitely has firmer control and pulls my waist in a little bit more. I can also wear this for about 8 hours a day before I really start noticing it. I bought this in the medium and to my surprise it came with 2 rows of eye hooks that give you about 1/2 inch option (i.e. tighter if you want it). I think this extra row is great. This is more expensive than the Flexee but gives firmer control. There is a "plastic" smell but other people won't notice it and you only notice it when you are taking in on/off.I have a pair of Spanx. Don't bother buying any kind of control from them. They don't do as good of a job, and in order for them to stay put they need to snap at the crotch (really annoying when it's bathroom time) AND they have straps that pull on your shoulders. And they are insanely expensive compared to Flexees or Squeems.Bottom line - worth the price and works well

Right fit, good, durable material.
I liked the fact that the material was stretchy. However the material bunched up and became uncomfortable after a few hours of wearing it. I quickly returned it as I was not satisfied with this product.

Doesn't roll up
I was pleasantly surprised by this shaper. It doesn't roll up and doesn't pucker as much as some other shapers I have tried. It just puckers a little under my chest while I am sitting. The cute little design is nice on the black one as well. I have seen some wear it higher over the chest instead of under, which looks really cute and is comfortable, but then it is not long enough to cover lower belly fat. When you sit it is not as comfy. It is one of the few shapers that do not roll up and do not pucker much. The material is soft and comfy. I purchased another one I liked it so well. The shaper part is not so tight that it is uncomfortable, but it is enough that it let me put on one of my heavy duty trainers over it because it sucked things in.

Muy bien
Lo teniía para meterme con más dignidad en un vestido de hacía unos años... y ha resultado ser una bendición para mi dolor de espalda. Lo dicen otros comentarios y doy fe, 4 días llevándola unas 10h, y el dolor de espalda se me ha controlado un montón. Eso no quita que cada cual vaya al fisio, traumatologo o lo que necesite pero este corsé sin ser médico, a mí me hace más que papel. He tenido muñequeras “súper fantásticas” de farmacia y de tienda especializada que han sido caras de narices y malas de narices también. Esto es bonito, me estiliza, y me ayuda con mi lumbalgia, para lo que es, no es barato pero tampoco es caro.
