Wish it was more stretchy
I purchased this bra for exclusively pumping while at work. I wasn't too excited for the type of material because it seems cheap. It isn't as comfortable and when I put it on, it sounded like old elastic stretching. I purchased a small for my 34 in bust and it fit while on. I just hope it lasts after making a old elastic ripping noise when I put it on. The material is like a cheap spaghetti strap. The flanges seem to work where they are and snug enough in the material of the bra.

Well worth it!
I'm not trying to be dramatic, but as a stressed out new first time mom, this bra was life changing. My baby has been struggling to gain weight because my milk didn't come in for 5 days after birth and my supply couldn't keep up with demand. I started pumping on one breast while nursing my infant on the other. I have a medela "pump in style" pump and I would have to hold my 6 lb baby with one hand and hold the pump with the other. My baby does not latch or suck well unless held in just the right position and has been very colicky. She refuses to sleep away from my arms so I cannot put her down while I pump. You can imagine how frustrated and tired I was once she started cluster feeding for 12+ hours a day. This bra was a desperate late night amazon purchase and I am pleased to say that it was a success. I wish I had the money to buy several more. The fabric is soft and the bra is well designed and gives good coverage. It feels like a sports bra to me. I am able to pull it down to nurse and the inner layers hold the pump in place perfectly. I am a nurse and when I go back to work I will wear this if I am still breastfeeding and pumping. It saves time and sanity. The only complaint I have is that the inner piece that holds the pump in place goes straight across my nipple --and when your nipples are already sore and chapped that can be unpleasant. That will fade as my nipples get more accustomed to breastfeeding and is also due to my anatomy rather than a product flaw. Also the layers get twisted occasionally but that is to be expected. I have machine washed the bra several times now despite the instructions that say hand washing is better for the elastic and have not noticed and weak seams or wearing of the elastic. As far as sizing, I ordered a large --I weigh 160 lbs post partum, am 5'6, and I wore a 36C regular bra. ( with breastfeeding I'm probably a 36D-- and it fits well if a little on the snug side.

I live in this bra!
I own two of the Rumina's Relaxed Nursing Bras and I literally have worn no other bra since I received the first one in the mail. Only days after my son's birth I found myself with cracked and bleeding nipples from breastfeeding. Because providing my son with breastmilk was so important to me I started pumping so I could heal, provide him with breastmilk and keep up my supply with the hopes of breastfeeding again some day. I was pumping every 2-3 hours, even in the night, and desperately needed a hand-free pumping bra. I originally ordered a strapless, zip-up-the-front style bra from another company. It worked alright, but it was tedious to undress every time I needed to put it on, especially at night when I was sleep-deprived. I was also recovering from a c-section, and physically not feeling like myself yet. The weather was still cold and the constant dressing and undressing with supersensitive bleeding and scabbed nipples was enough to make me want to give up on breastfeeding/pumping altogether. Finally, the fabric was too thick to properly massage my breasts to help with maximum milk output. I found the Rumina relaxed fit bra on Amazon during a midnight pump and in desperation decided to give it a try. It was the answer to my prayers! It's comfortable enough to wear 24/7, which I do, which is why I have two. No more undressing to pump! The fabric is thin and comfortable and I can easily massage my breasts during pumping. I'm breastfeeding again, and can fairly easily breastfeed in this bra! I also like the double layer of fabric that covers the nipples for a number of reasons (prevents nipping out, keep me warm, extra fabric helps absorb any leaking milk). For reference I'm fairly small chested. Pre-baby I was a 34 A/B, and now 36 B/C. If I was any smaller chested I don't know if it would work...the cups might be too loose. Overall I love this bra. I imagine I'll be wearing it for many months to come, and I'm fine with that! With being a new mom comfort and convenience is paramount and this bra fits the bill! I highly recommend it!

Works really well!
Seems to work well! I am a 38DDD and the XL fits perfect. It hold the pump parts in place! The only flaw it a piece of my boob hangs out while pumping I’m concerned this may create a blocked duct later but only time will tell. When I bend or or move around they stay in the bra and being a busty women this is essential!Update: I’ve been wearing this bra for awhile now and I love it! My milk comes out so much better with this! I do have to keep pulling my boobs up because I’m use to wearing a push up bra. I contacted the company to see if they had shorter straps which they don’t but they think I had a defective one so sent me another free! Wonderful people!

Way better than the zip-up bustier
As someone who has pumped 7+ times a day for months, I was getting sick of the zip-front bustier bra every pumper seems to start off with. This bra is much more comfortable and unlike the bustier, it can be easily worn under clothing, so I no longer have to change in and out of pumping bras a million times a day. My one complaint is that its pullover style can make it a challenge to get on and off without getting tangled up in it (which sucks when your breasts and nipples are really sensitive and you want to avoid any unnecessary manhandling of them!). Overall, a much improved option if you pump or breastfeed every few hours.

Most comfortable pumping bra
The one thing I was dreading when searching for a pumping bra was having to wear a wired bra. I find them so unbelievably uncomfortable and I was not looking forward to wearing one every pump session. This bra allowed me to avoid that horrible discomfort and I am so grateful. And the fact that it could double as a nursing bra was icing on the cake. Very happy I bought this.

Awful
Why is this so expensive ? It is nothing fancy. The slots for the pump make it so your boobs are 2ft apart from each other. Terribly uncomfortable & weird.

No sirve
No sujeta el extractor, lo "recoge" in poco, pero se cae hacia delante. Al menos en mi caso, tengo que seguir usando la mano.
