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.

I never use girdles even after giving birth because I just find them very uncomfortable and constricting. Yes I know that's the idea behind girdles but after a few hours and a couple of ribs aching, I wonder if it's worth the trouble. But when I tried out the spanx (thank's to a funny monologue by Ellen), I tossed my other girdles out the window and never wore anything else. It really smoothened my figure, made me look great in tight clothes yet gave me freedom to move. A word of caution though. Make sure your fingernails are filed before wearing because the material is like pantyhose material so you can snag it and create a run. But aside from that, this product is absolutely perfect.

I purchased this item after seeing Spanx on multiple TV shows. They made my pants fit better and I didn't need to suck in my tummy, because it really did hold the belly bulge in for me. However, the "double-gusset" (opening crotch) is a problem. 1.It doesn't stay closed unless you keep your knees together. (Don't wear it under a dress and cross your legs unless you're trying to recreate a certain movie scene.) 2.It caused extreme crotch irritation. IT FELT LIKE I WAS WEARING A THONG BACKWARDS, BECAUSE THE FLAPS OF THE "DOUBLE-GUSSET" KEPT FINDING THEIR WAY BETWEEN MY LABIA. Ouch! I normally walk home from work, but the day I wore this garment, I had to take a taxi home. That's how irritated my crotch was. It was an extremely unpleasant sensation that I have never before experienced. Relief was immediate after tearing this thing off and tossing it in the trash. I would rather have a little belly bulge than an irritated crotch any day!

I have tried a lot of shapewear but this is by far the best. It did not roll up or down and I looked great. I also love how you do not have to take them all the way down to go the the bathroom.

I EXPECTED THESE SPANX WHICH I HAVE HEARD A LOT ABOUT TO BE VERY GOOD, BUT WHEN I PUT THEM ON, THEY FELT LIKE I WAS WEARING A GIRDLE, ALTHOUGH THE SPANX DID FLATTEN OUT THE TUMMY, BUT THE BAD SIDE OF THAT WAS THEY THEN SIMPLY RAISED THE FAT UPWARDS AND INSTEAD OF THE FAT BEING IN THE TUMMY IT WENT UP AND STILL LOOKED AWFUL WHEN WEARING CLOTHES. I AM NOT THAT OVERWEIGHT, I'M 5'6" TALL AND WEIGH ABOUT 145, SO FOR ME I EXPECTED THESE TO WORK PERFECTLY, BUT THEY DIDN'T, I'M 73 YEARS OLD AND DIDN'T EXPECT THEM TO MAKE ME LOOK LIKE A 30 YEAR OLD, BUT I DID EXPECT THEM TO DO WHAT THEY SAY THEY DO, AND ON THAT THEY FAILED, MISERABLLY!!!!!!!!!!!!
