I've used this item about 2 or 3 times, but I'm selling it because I no longer have the opportunity to use it. The bra pads are connected and can be inserted and removed from the center. I am a private seller, so there may be oversights in my inspection. Packaging will be simple, using materials I have at home. It may be shipped in a compression bag, so please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about wrinkles caused by packaging. Returns are not accepted. I do not have any pets, and I do not smoke. Please consider purchasing this item, understanding that it is used and has been stored at home. ^ ^
