Love love love the idea of this bra! Makes my pumping life so much easier. Literally saving me minutes which will turn into hours! Only downfall is I'm larger chested. I feel if it was one size up, I be more comfortable. The bra digs into my back and my breasts. The straps sit funny. Still would recommend the product. Just wish it went bigger!

Bra was great- overall support was awesome! Loved the dual clips! However, the bra needs to be offered in BUSTY!! Had to return to due sizing issues- hope to see this offered in more sizing soon!

I tried on this bra and was immediately in love with the soft fabric. I ultimately ended up returning it because the cup size was just not quite big enough. Im a 40G and had ordered the XL, the band and straps fit great just not quite enough in the cup. I really wish this was available in Busty!

I love the way the bra and tank feel! They are the best I've ever had!! I contacted Kindred with my measurements and they were spot on with the size I needed! I'm usually the next size up in other brands so I was glad I chose to take advantage of the online chat! Unfortunately the cut out area for the pumping area on the bra and tank have frayed very badly. I contacted Kindred and they were super easy to work with. They are sending replacements for their products. My only concern is that the new ones will fray to and eventually will be unable to use. I also don't believe Kindred will keep replacing the tanks and bras everytime it frays. Kindred notified me they understand the issue and are working on improving this. The other issue I see with the product is its supposed to be hand washed only. No new mom has time for hand washing anything. Overall Kindred is a great company but has some improvements to make in their products.

Great concept, but I feel "squished" in cups. Would like a bigger option for larger cup sizes.

I really wanted to love this bra. The fabric is very comfortable and the flaps are easy to use. The problem is with sizing. I ordered a L and it came with an extender. I had to use the extender to make the L fit which was right for my size. Unfortunately the extender made the back of the bra a bit uncomfortable/itchy. Customer service allowed me to return the L bra which was great! Before I returned the L, I ordered an XL thinking that would fit better (without the extender). When I got the XL, the circumference of the XL bra was exactly the same as the L (I hadn’t returned the L yet and compared both bras). The cup size of the two bras were a bit different but that didn’t make up for the same sizing around the band. From my experience, this bra isn’t for women who are 38 inches and up. I had much better luck with the hands-free pumping and nursing tank.

I ordered this so that I could pump as efficiently as possible when I return to my 3rd grade classroom soon. I typically wear a 32/34 D, so I ordered a small and a medium. After trying on both, I decided to keep the small. The bra is well made, soft, and quite comfortable for all day wear and nursing. Unfortunately, this comfort means that the pumping portion of the bra is perhaps not as supportive and tight as it ought to be. After one week of use, I find that to pump as many ounces as usual I have to hold the flanges for a better suction; the bra simply doesn't pull them close enough, especially as the collection bottles become weighed down with milk. That said, I do appreciate the time saved from not having to switch bras, and I will likely keep this for those days when each moment is particularly precious. For those that are curious, I use a Spectra S2.

I have been using this bra since December. I was really looking forward to using it when going back to work for pumping but will not be using. I used it in the beginning with breast feeding for my son but we were no longer able to breast feed where I am not exclusively pumping. I do not wear this bra for pumping anymore and instead use the typical hands free pumping bra that has a zipper in the middle. This bra does not have tight enough material to hold the pumping flanges and bottles. I found myself having to hold my flanges because I was leaking from my flanges and there was not enough suction. Especially when the pump bottles had a few ounces. Also because I’d that, not all of my milk was being expressed. I adjusted the straps and back and did not help. I loved the concept of this bra being multi purpose but would not recommend for pumping mamas.

I was searching for a pumping bra that came in beige and had padding. I was so excited to get the sublime because it seemed to check all o my boxes. I'm still glad I got it for these two reasons, but I don't love the holes for the pumping flanges. Other pumping bras I have pull to the side to allow the flange to go over the nipple while pumping, but provide complete coverage when not pumping. The sublime has holes for the flange directly in front of the nipples. The result is that the nipples poke through the hole all the time, and particularly after pumping it can be very sore to have them swollen and poking out the holes. I can assure folks that I have no trouble getting my silicone pumpin' pals flanges through the holes. I had a little more difficulty when I tried to get the hard plastic pumpin' pals green flange through the holes. I was only trying to do this to provide more support to the blue silicone flange that I inserted into the plastic one. I was worried this was tear the sublime holes, and so I just started only using the silicone flange. The bra provides enough support that I don't need the plastic flanges anyway.

If you’re looking for a double duty bra, this is if! Which may be a major selling point for most, but for me it will most likely be only a pumping a bra. The extra (thick!) layer that has to come down in order to access the breastfeeding opening causes a major bulk under my breast and not very comfortable for my LO. It’s all jammed in there. And the straps ugh the straps could have been way thicker to support so much material!!
