I have this bra in about five different colours, because at the time, it was the best-fitting bra I could find.
It's the classic bra issue: the band is too big and rides up, the cups are too small, and it gives slight quad-boob. The fit is close, but not completely correct. I went from these to a Freya Patsy Padded Half Cup Bra (1223)](model:9479) in 30FF, and the Freya fits much better.
If this bra fits properly, it's a nice bra. It's a moulded-cup, so it holds its shape very well and prevents nipple show-through. It has a teeny-tiny bit of padding to provide a bit of ... lift to the bust, but not a ridiculous amount. The fabric is soft and comes in many colours, and even has matching undies, if you're the sort who likes matching undies. The undies, however, are made of the same polyester material that is on the external part of the bra, and it doesn't breathe. I bought one pair because it was so darn pretty, but the fabric makes them uncomfortable. The shape is comfy, though!
The straps are too thin for my liking; they dig into my shoulders, but this is in part because of the too-large band. The straps had to compensate for it.
The circle of shiny things glued onto the front is VERY tough. They don't come off, even with years of wear and washing!
All in all, if it fits properly, it's a cute t-shirt bra, but it's not the bra for me.

Comfortable in 34D, especially for everyday wear when I don't really care that much if I'm looking my absolute best.
It causes a very slight quadboob on my larger breast only once I swoop and scoop.
I know the band is too big, and I have to use the tightest hook, so it will wear out faster than it should.

This bra fits good. The cup is molded, and the band of the bra still fits after having it for almost 2 years.

as it gets older the wires start making themselves known compared to what it used to be

This bra band is spot on. But the cups run small. I would suggest a 34C to try this model. The cups cut into the top of my breasts and the bottom of the cups are not filled (too shallow).

This is WAY too small for me, but I was looking for a strapless bra for some reason - extremely last minute - and this is the only one I could find. It's a decent strapless bra, and I appreciate the straps that are included. You can attach them regularly or you can turn the bra into a racerback. One thing I liked was the wide elastic along the top and bottom of the band/bra wings; I felt like it helped the bra stay in place more securely.

This review is for the Maidenform Comfort Devotion Tailored Extra Coverage T-Shirt Bra (model 09436). I specify because there are several versions of the Maidenform Comfort Devotion (which, from the photos, would have a very different fit).
Pros:
* This is moulded cup underwire bra.
* The fabric is super soft - the softest of any bra I've ever tried on.
* Very smooth - a good choice for T-shirt bra.
* The underwires end lower in the gore than most but this doesn't seem to affect the fit nor comfort (on my shallow, wide-set, horizontal oval shape).
* Wire is slightly padded - almost ... don't know that it's there. (However, this padding takes up a bit room inside lower part of the cup so may not be best for very full on bottom shapes. But could work as padding is much smaller than found in a push-up bra.)
* Gives breasts a pleasing round shape (not too conical, projected, or oval).
* Has great coverage of the area where the armpit meets the chest wall so nicely contains that loose skin in the high underarm without pinching with movement.
* Wing height (band width) strikes the perfect balance between high enough to hold everything in but not so high that the wire or seam poke into the armpit.
* Very reasonably priced (reg $24, sale $20) and easily available (Amazon).
Concerns:
* Will the super soft band hold up to washing? Pill? Relax quickly? Don't know yet.
* Only comes in 34-40 B-DD (US sizes). If they made a 32DD (a sister size), I would try it.
It's a keeper!
Have sensory sensitivity or sensitive skin? This is a bra worth trying.
UPDATE 10 months later:
* My go-to tee-shirt bra because it is absolutely invisible under thin fabrics. Like it so much, I now own this bra in beige, black, and white.
* Still a very comfy bra. Fabric has stayed smooth and soft. Padding still uber smooth (no wrinkles or lumps), despite machine washing.
* Have been wearing about once per week. Is washed after 3-4 wears (fewer in the summer). Machine washed, cold water, inside lingerie bag, normal cycle, hang dry.
* Band fabric has relaxed slightly faster than traditionally banded bras purchased about the same time (and worn & washed identically). I've noticed that axillary breast tissue starts to slip under the wires near the end of the day because the band doesn't pull against it as firmly. However, it's not uncomfortable due to the padding on the wire, but does make the top edge of the cup start to gap.
* At this price (now $29 on Amazon) I don't care if they need to be replaced more often (since my other favorite bras are Chantelle's at $70-80 each).

This bra never stood a chance with me, as it was the wrong size. It was nevertheless my go-to bra for years. I wore these bras out so fast thanks to the size being all wrong. The combination of poor fit and cut meant I never felt well-supported (my correct size is a 32F). That said, the bra was pretty darned comfortable - soft, with a smooth band. The appearance is barely embellished and utilitarian, with a satiny finish over foam cups and a length of lace at the side of the cup.

Model....
Love4Pollinators Yes, this style has padded UW. I have one left that I'd forgotten to list for giveaway and I can snap a few pics of the bra interior so you can see what that looks like, make sure it's up to snuff if you're contemplating trying this model.

This bra never stood a chance with me, as it was the wrong size. My boobs were always trying to escape, and the combination of poor fit and cut meant I never felt well-supported (my correct size is a 32F). This bra was seldom worn. The materials are good - soft, and the bottom of the cup feels like a pillow. The bra is also a pretty design with beigy-nude lace over beigy-nude foam.

This is probably my best fitting bra (which is sad). The band has enough of the grippy plastic that it sorta stays in place. The cups are a little wide for me and a little tall for me (and possibly a little roomy inside?) but they look good under clothes so I will call that a win. It is pretty padded and curves in at the top so it is a bit hard to tell how much of a size mismatch there is especially since they fit my overall shape so well (i think??). The 34C cut into my armpits a lot more obviously when I tried it on.
It is a size or two too big n the band so it does slip down pretty easily. The height of the cups is annoying but not painful.

This bra is really comfy, however, the band is too big and rides up. Everything else fits really well and the material is soft. I like the slight push up that this bra adds. The straps have a cute "split" detail towards that connects to the cups, this material or the way it sits irritates my arm crease but it is bearable. I bought this on a whim after getting my measurements and I am pretty happy with the fit overall for a guess.
Edit: The band is waaaaaaaay too big.

Cups are slightly too small--some overspill. Also, the band has stretched out and is now a bit loose on the tightest hooks.

Is this the mode with padded wires, 2ks-rddit-80?
