This is a great way to keep warm when staying out in the cold for long periods of time. Our main complaint is that the largest size available is not very large. The sizes aren't very true to what is labeled.

By Budd from Midlothian Illinois on 4/21/2008

I ride a motorcycle on long rides. The extra heat is great.A second battery would be helpful.I have already suggested this to my friends.I know the size is a little snug but that is so you can feel the heat.

By Jim, Giants Fan from Allendale, New Jersey on 4/12/2008

It will be great to wear at outside games. The collar is high enough to keep me warm from the waist to my neck. It is soft and comfortable and not too bulky to wear under a jacket. I am glad I have it. Couldn't recommend a better vest and the workmanship is excellent.

By Gina from Danbury, CT on 4/11/2008

Bought one for my husband -- he loved it. Now I have bought a second for my father-in-law as a gift. They love wearing it when having to work outside. True to size. If they made a larger one, I would by one for my dad too!

By Mike the Chicago Bear Fan from Chicago, IL on 4/5/2008

Great for outdoor events in winter especially sports like football!
Defintely fits snugly, beware.

By Steph...the ultimate shopper from claymont, de on 4/4/2008

Great gift for the golfer

By Jan from Egg Harbor Twp., NJ on 4/4/2008

This product was bought for my husband, who is cold-blooded. He absolutely loves it. It keeps him warm and toasty indoors and out.

By hiroller from Western CT on 3/30/2008

This vest works just great! I read some comments in which people said the sizing was small. Yes, it does run snug, but that's the way it's designed to fit. The vest must make contact with your body in order for you to feel and retain the warmth. So, if you cheat on your size, order the next larger size. Usually, you will wear it layering under something else. It has a storm flap that runs down the front zipper. It charges fast and I find you will wind up shutting it off, rather than running it constantly; it gets that hot! Great for golfers or anyone who works outdoors in cold weather. The best!!!

Great idea for keeping me warm

By N/A from St.Paul, Minnesota on 3/28/2008

The button switch needs to be recessed. You can turn it on, off if you bump it.

By Sandy from Toledo Ohio on 3/28/2008

Sons uses them for fishing in the colder months...Both like them for warmth and fit.

By KZ from OHIO on 3/25/2008

in very cold weather

By Sue the dog walker from Chicago IL on 3/18/2008

I walk dogs in Chicago and this helps so much in the winter when that cold wind blows.

By Rose from Doylestown, PA on 3/16/2008

I am a school crossing guard and have to stand outside in cold windy weather for 1 1/2 hours each school day. This is perfect for me! It keeps me cozy and warm and fits perfectly under my police uniform coat. I also recommended this vest to one other crossing guard and another friend who works outside at a grocery store collecting carts in all kinds of weather. I am very happy with my purchase!

Travel

By Husbands' wife from Searcy, AR on 3/14/2008

Seems to be quite useful in cold weather. Battery seems to stay charged well.

By lou from queens,nyc on 3/14/2008

great vest,sizing runs small,needs to be charge every time for use,each full charge only last a few hours.although pretty good vest and a decent price.

By jen from queens,nyc on 3/14/2008

great item,its the 2nd vest i had purchase,i would say the zipper has improved since the first one i had purchased a few month ago.but the sizing still runs small.

By noisefree from Naples, FL and Syracuse, NY on 3/14/2008

This product is an answer to a prayer. I am one of those people who can stay warm as long as my torso is kept warm. As a safety and noise control engineer, I often have to travel from our warm winter home in Naples, FL to some of the coldest places in the nation.

The heated vest will mean that I don't need to pack sweaters and bulky jackets. All I need is the vest under light jacket, along with long sleeves and gloves in order to work outside in North Dakota and Minnesota winter temperatures.

The sale price is what drew me to buy the product, and I'm glad I did. It is warm (without the heat on) even on those cool mornings in Naples - and hangs ready to use anytime.

By Sam from Columbus, OH on 3/8/2008

Indoor Sport Center usually are cold. This product keep my husband warm

By anonsha from San Diego on 3/7/2008

Great jacket, but the quality is a little poor.

By crankee from kansas on 3/7/2008

used for outdoor sport events, do not like the possibility of the battery failing and needing to be replaced because it has not been charged regularly

By Trina from Hermitage, TN on 3/7/2008

This is great for walkers in cold climates and hunters/sports fans.

By Vic from Hertford, NC on 3/7/2008

Good cold weather application

By Gigi from Brooklyn, NY on 3/7/2008

This works great! Very toasty! It will be great for outside football games - looking forward to using it next fall/winter!

By Running Man from New Jersey on 2/25/2008

As stated above it's good for when I go to the track to run
It seems very comfortable

I work in all kinds of weather, just sorry I can't wear when it rains

By DZ from New Jersey on 2/24/2008

I bought this for my father who is always cold. He says this keeps him warm but does not like the fact that the battery has to be charged daily. Size also ran a little small.

It looks great and is delightfully warm so long as the battery lasts, but it seems to last much less than the 5 hours, and takes much longer to charge.

By Warm Heart, Cold Feet from San Diego, California on 2/18/2008

vest is great, nice quality and thickness, and heater is wonderful- suggest buying more than one battery for longer use at higher power; I bought a vest for a friend as a gift

By Bob from St Joseph MO on 2/9/2008

My wife got me the vest as a gift. I really like being able to adjust the amount of warmth. It fits well over a flannel shirt and doesn't create too much bulk under my outer jacket. It is well worth the money

By Trina from Nashville, TN on 2/8/2008

This product was purchased for a Christmas gift for my father who walks every morning even in the cold and who has everything.

The only thing is I ordered an extra large and it is more like a Medium. I reordered an extra large and if it is different I will give that one to my Dad and send the one sized wrong back to the company.

By I from Manhattan on 2/5/2008

For chills this is a nice to have.

By Concerned daughter from NYC on 1/28/2008

My elderly father gets chills easily and now he can use this anytime, anywhere.

By Photog from Nashville on 1/26/2008

Great for those times when I'm on the job, outside, and need to make sure I stay warm.

By Postal Carrier from Los Angeles, CA on 1/25/2008

This is a decent product, but I was surprised that only certain areas of the vest were wired to be heated, not the whole vest. Area that was wired got *very* warm, like hot pad hot, whereas other areas maintained temperature of ordinary vest. Sizing was also large. I got the small, and it feels more like a medium. Rechargeable pack should also maintain longer charge, but it's not truly a poor time either.

By jen from new york city on 1/25/2008

its a great product,ordered a size medium for my husband for christmas but ended up too small and keeping it for myself,great for the cold and chilly weather.heats up pretty fast.but the battery life is very limited,have to charge everyday for use.

By Rbrady - frb from martinez, ca on 1/20/2008

it was a gift for my father and he uses it when he goes out to shovel snow. it was a little difficult to assemble, but once we figured it out it works great.

By Ordering for Family from West Palm Beach, FL on 1/13/2008

item was returned due to sizing. Ordered Large which is normal size came in too snug considering you would wear it with a shirt or sweatshirt under it.

By Charly Fan from Gloucester Va on 1/12/2008

I like to keep warm and this does the trick. I can turn it off if I get too hot and turn it back on if I become cold. I love it.

By Tony from Washington, DC on 1/12/2008

Bought as a gift for a friend. It made a great impression and works well. Can be wore alone on a brisk day and under a thick coat in a blizzard.

By VB the Outdoor from Durham, North Carolina on 1/11/2008

Great for cold outdoor events

By Gina from Danbury, CT on 1/9/2008

I bought this as a christmas gift for my husband who is an electrician and works outside in the freezing weather during the winter. I think he has worn it just about every day since receiving it and LOVES it. I was very impressed with its sleek style and light weight.

By Mom on the Go from Orange Cty, NY on 1/9/2008

I bought this as a gift for my father. I thought it would be nice to play golf in on those brisk mornings.

He loves it!

By Brookstone Fan from Metropolitan Washington DC on 1/9/2008

I am a daily commuter that requires walking about 6 blocks in the elements to my destination. This vest keeps me warm during the trip, but does not hold the charge-even when off, during the day for the evening commute w/o recharging during the day. The vest sizes are more accommodating for a woman's smaller frame than a males (i.e., if u order a "large," it will not be suitable for a "large" on a male)
