Great quality and works but the heating area is not as large as the picture depicts. And the control is hard to access with an over jacket on.

This warms very well. Keeps me toasty warm in deer stand. Reason for nt giving it 5 stars is I would like it to have lower back heat. And if I want spare battery it’s very exspensive.. be nice if it had standard battery hook up so I could use other battery packs as well..

Have had it for a week. Initial impressions are good. The only reasons I did not rank as 5 stars are the battery life is shorter than published and the battery/charger combo is temperamental. The battery has to be upright and the correct angle on the charging cord for the connection to be good enough to charge.Now for the good parts. The four setting options are great. The best by itself is very warm. I use it to sit in the woods while hunting. When I start to get a chill I turn the vest on for a bit. Works great to warm me back up. I’ve used it down to about 15 to 20 F, and at those temps only really needed to use setting 2 or 3 out of 4. Also, I have found it best to put over my base layer, which is a compression Under Armor shirt, and then put a few more thin layers over the vest. The only issue with that is access to the power cord. It would be nice if the power cord was a bit longer so I could more easily route it to my pants pocket and leave the battery in there.I will update the review if my opinion significantly changes one way or another. Overall, quality is great, works well, and I would recommend this item.

This was purchased to wear during freezing football games, and it served its purpose well. He got so warm he had to turn it down during the game. There was a slight learning curve regarding the best clothing to wear with the vest. He finally settled on a down puffer coat which kept the warmth contained. Excellent product. We will be buying another one.

Excellent for warmth and fit . The XL was perfect. Quick to charge and holds a charge for about 6-7 hours.

I really like the vest. The only suggestion I have is to get more heat in the neck area.
Abiade –
This coat worked great when I first purchased it. Four months later the cord from the coat to the battery is loose and the battery is no longer functional. The coat does not heat up any longer. Can I get my money back or another coat that is more dependable?Thank you,Abiade

Rode my Harley to work this morning, battery was fully charged, vest was on high, and 11 minute ride sucked the battery to 1/2 charge. …very disappointed
