 Better than I expected June 13, 2007

I've tried similar support products in the past and was disappointed with the fit, comfort, and performance. The Spanx Higher Power is great! Very comfortable, no rolling down or bunching up, and they do make me look smoother and slimmer in jeans and slacks. I ordered about a size larger than I really thought would fit me, and the fit is perfect. Another reviewer mentioned that she thought the Spanx products ran small, and I agree. Excellent product, worth the price!

Many people have complained about the fit. I had the same problems (bunching of fat at the top and rolling down) until I bought the next bigger size. I too had the illusion of being a small. However, the medium was really where I needed to be. Please don't expect miracles but I sure do look a lot better in my clothes with these on.
Won't leave home without them... July 19, 2008

I really only wear them for work or special occasions but I secretly would love to wear them with EVERYTHING. The trick is to buy the correct size. If you think you need to buy smaller, in order to look smaller, you couldn't be more wrong. Seriously, I feel like I've instantly lost 10 lbs when I have them on (without the effort). They smooth my curves and support my post-pardum bulges. Most importantly, they give me the confidence I need to not feel insecure about my appearance. You can certainly find something cheaper out there, but you will end up with a far inferior product that will end up in your drawer, because if the SPANX are available you'll always reach for them first.

This is much more comfortable and free-feeling than a traditional body-shaper. It smooths out the bulges (I'm a size 14-16, and there are plenty), and has never rolled down. For those who said it rolled down on them, the only thing I can think is that maybe they were wearing the wrong size, or perhaps have long torsos.
As for the gusset, I've never used it, and always wear underwear. Obviously, it takes a bit more effort to pull it down, but it's no big deal; I doubt it adds more than 15 seconds to my bathroom time.
All in all, an excellent product that has allowed me to comfortably wear figure-hugging clothes that I couldn't wear before.

Got these recently, and I'm thrilled! They do live up to their description. The most pleasant things to me were that unlike other shapewear, they don't dig at the waist or at your thighs. They also feel comfortable, so you wear them all day without feeling like you can't breathe. They also smooth out any bulges resulting from underwear, etc. I took some measurements, and they take off 1.5 inches from both my waist and hips, which is pretty good given how comfortable they are. I would definitely recommend buying those! The fact that the crotch opens is also helpful if you have a pea-sized bladder like I do - you don't need to fuss with the shapewear for 5 minutes every time you go to the bathroom.
