First impressions, might update after a week or so.
This is a really good binder if you're searching for something both affordable and effective. It also arrived quite quickly, considering the time we're in.
The binder itself is basically unnoticable once you put on a t-shirt or something similar, and if it is seen, it can be easily taken for a tank top. The material it's made from feels like a trampoline but it's not noticeable after you put it on. The compression panel inside is soft and comfortable and it does a good job of hiding your chest, especially if it's around an A or B cup (speaking from experience). When you first put it on, your chest isn't perfectly flat but it looks much better once you put on a shirt. Personally, I find it easier to pull it over my head, as opposed to stepping into it like the instructions say, but it's different for everyone.
The bottom of the binder rolls up a bit when you sit down or slouch, but not enough to be noticeable or uncomfortable. The straps pinch your underarm a bit, which may give the impression of fat, but so far I haven't had any discomfort, nor is it noticeable under my shirt.
Compared to my binder from gc2b, this one is cheaper, binds better, and is less noticeable, but the material is rougher (not uncomfortably so, and it doesn't irritate my skin.)
