A friend with similar boobs would be: wide-set, average projection, mostly even but a little full on bottom.
I measure as a 34FF/32G. I was a little skeptical about buying a 34G, as well as about the depth (it measures about 10.8" which I thought was a lot). However, this bra fits me really well!
The shape is more like a demi or half-cup. There is an average amount of projection (I feel). The wires do not poke, and they don't come too far back. They're the perfect length. While the bra itself is designed to be open, there is a little bit of cleavage, but there is still ... a smooth line from breast to bra, and there's no quadboob after I scoop+swoop. My breasts are comfortably enclosed on each side.
I was warned that the straps were wider than most bras. This is actually good for my frame. Being taller and having more broad shoulders, I find that the straps are perfectly distanced. They don't dig in like some of my other bras that have narrower straps (this is not to say that the other bras are unsupportive. I just have a little fat pad on my shoulders I guess).
The band is small for a 34, which I don't think is necessarily a bad thing. It feels supportive and sturdy. It's not going anywhere. It'll have a longer wearable lifetime.
I love that it only has 2 hooks. Can't stand 3-hooked bras when they're so hard for me to undo.
The design is BOOTIFUHL. I love bras that have lots of colors and designs. The lace is a nice touch, although it sticks out a little bit. It can be hard to smooth down. That's a minor thing.
Definitely one of my favorites. I absolutely love it.

If the only issue is the band felt too tight from the beginning were you able to use a bra extender for the first few months to wear it in?
Also, would you be able to provide at least one photo so we can see the similarity to more recent continuity bras from Panache like Cleo's Juna? Have you tried it yet? I hope you are enjoying the same shape and fit. :)
