Default Hands-free pumping bras

Anyone used a hands-free pumping bra before? What's the best (most supportive) one for larger breasted women? And any chance of avoiding "uni-boob?"

I've never used them either. I figure you have to sit there anyway why not just hold the stupid things . Sorry I'm not much help. I BF Hannah for 12 mo., but only pumped for like 3.

A pumping bra is like a nursing bra in that it has flaps that fold down. It holds the breast flanges of the breast pump in place while pumping, so you don't have to hold them. I thought this would be a good option for me when I go back to work so I can multi-task, rather than spending the entire break only pumping. But, I don't know how supportive the bras are, and I don't know how "attractive" they are under clothing.
