The velcro isn't the strongest. I have a flat stomach small waste. When I sit down the lower velcro pops open. I will keep and sew in a fastener
They dry fast and are cute. I'm a small size 8. Had to order size 10.

The fabric is cool and comfortable. However, the scoop in the front is so low that I fall out of it- bummer.

I'm 5'9, approximately 150 lbs with a 28in waist. I ordered a small and WISH I would have got an X-Small. The belt velcos fine around the waist and is tight and works fine. However, when I go to put the strap through the loop and cinch it down...I pull it tight and have too much extra fabric. The Velcro piece goes too far past the "prickly" side of the Velcro and I can't secure it. If I do want to secure the strap as well, it's loose and isn't fully serving the purpose. Great quality belt, just if you're on the border of sizes...size down instead.

I purchased this belt during my second trimester when I started having intense back pain. I did feel like it helped.

The material is very soft against your skin. It's not very bulky, but you could definitely see it under a semi-fitted top. I didn't have issues with it riding up, but it did come up to a weird spot on my back that sometimes caused a little muffin top in the back (and I don't have a fatty back).

The big issue that I had later in my pregnancy was that the scratchy Velcro part was too tall from top to bottom. When I would wrap it across to secure it, the rough Velcro would extend beyond the part it was fastening to, thus digging into my skin. I don't know if the belt became stretched out or something, but I was bigger at that point in my pregnancy, so it shouldn't have mattered.

All in all, I was happy with this product because I was desperate to relieve my back pain. It enabled me to continue to work comfortably even later in my pregnancy. If they could taper the Velcro part some, it'd be nearly perfect.

There's a weird bulge of extra fabric in the stomach area, but if I wear a an elastic waist belt, it is unnoticeable.

Not too fond of wide elastic waistband that's not covered with material. Kinda cuts into my stomach when I sit

I'm 150 lbs and 5'4, and I got a medium. It was pretty hard to get it to latch the first time, but as I wore it for a few days it got easier! Which I assume means my waist was shrinking. I'm currently on the middle set of clips as I started out on the loosest set. So yes, it works! But I do notice it causes some bulging between the trainer and my bra, and the top edge rolls under while I'm wearing it. Super uncomfortable and annoying. I would also suggest wearing a tight tank top underneath for comfort.

I am glad to have my EzyFit Waist Trimmer belt. It does make me sweat in the abdominal area, and I feel as though it makes me stand up straighter which improves my posture while I am wearing it. I am still working on getting it adjusted properly because if you don't, you end up with a little piece of the velcro that rubs on your skin. I will do better as time goes on.

Fit is fine. I don't really sweat like I saw in ads. When I take it off my stomach is moist but I want that dripping sweat like others. The velcro is detaching so the fit isn't that well.

I'm going to give it 2 stars for now. I only had this belt for a month. I I have felt a burning sensation on my stomach while wearing it for only 15 minutes. It feels like it's doing something but I haven't noticed any changes. I'll continue to use it while working out and if does anything, if I see any changes I'll rate it again.

It is a bit smaller than I expected, but keeps me from rolling on my back at night! Now that I am about 31 weeks along, I will probably start to use it for belly support.

This might work for someone who has a typical shape, but it didn't work for me. I have an hourglass shape where my natural waist is unnaturally small right under my ribs but my diastis recti makes my stomach protrude and makes me look 6 months pregnant. The belly bandit couldn't cope with both the big tummy and the small waist, and bunched horribly in the middle. It was so bad, it wouldn't sit right. I'd try to straighten it but the thing took on a weird shape and stayed that way. What a bummer.

Order a size smaller (trust the reviewers on this one) and be prepared for a much longer hit.  I'm 5'8 and it hits at my upper thigh, which means it's covering all of my butt and hips with loose fabric at the waist.  I look heavier in this, which angers me because I bought a lighter weight hoodie to make me look more lean.  I'm convinced the pictures showing a tapering at the waist is because someone pinned the extra fabric at the model's back.

It's become my "sick" hoodie, the thing I throw on when I feel like crap and don't plan on leaving the house because it's not very flattering.

Bottom sags forward when loaded.... I solved this by attacking extra wide Velcro  across lower back of the unit, and back of seat. Also, the insulated compartment is not insulated well enough to keep drinks hot/cold.

I wish the length of the waist trimmer was longer because in order to have it around the top of my belly/hips I have to wear it a little lower and it makes me look like I have really bad back fat! Haha! Other than that, I love it.

I am a male in early 60's and have that midriff bulge (spare tire). I purchased this product to look slimmer and it does the trick. The tendency of the user is to pull the belt very tight as to hide you bulge and is easy to do. The PROBLEM IS pulling the belt tight forces your stomach and intestinal organs up into your chest and after wearing it for a few weeks my inner chest below my ribs began to hurt. After I quit wearing the belt my chest felt better.  I am not saying the pain was the fault of the belt so judge for yourself.

I recently purchased these belly bands in XL for my senior Alaskan Malamute who is about 80lbs.  He has had a leaky bladder sphincter for the past couple of years and has been on medication.  That is not doing it alone anymore so I decided to try the belly bands.  These are very absorbent and have been leak proof so far.  The only issue I have is that the XL size is just barely big enough to fit around him and he is not overweight.  After I place it around his waste, there is only about 1 inch of the Velcro fastening it together.  Good thing it is strong Velcro and there are three strips.  So far it has not come off overnight or during the day while I am at work.  I would recommend these to anyone who is trying to find a solution to accidents in the house, but if you have a larger dog than mine, these are not going to fit.
