Great gift.

I bought this for my girlfriend and she loves it. She use to always complain sheâs cold until now. Design is very sleek and quality is nice. She loves how it can easily be adjusted smaller or larger with the included side pieces depending on what sheâs wearing underneath it. At first she couldnât get the battery to stay on, she would press the battery button once and it would light up but then turn off. After contacting the seller we were informed that you have to long press the power button for a few seconds until the three lights on the battery turn solid. I actually like the fact that the battery button has to be long pressed to turn on, this making It far less likely that the battery turns on in your pocket with out you meaning to do so. The different power/heat levels are a nice touch as well. Over all very happy with this purchase.
Heated Jacket

I am a person that gets very cold all the time that is one reason I bought this heated vest. This vest is the best purchase I have made. It warms up quick and has many settings. When it is on high, watch out this vest can make you sweat and that is no joke. I usually have to have it on the medium setting. I use it every time I have to go anywhere. Also I work nights and get cold very easily, so I turn to my heated vest for warmth. As I am sitting here right now I am wearing it and it is so comfy warm that I can go to sleep. Battery lasts quite a bit. Have not had to buy a spare battery as of yet but may need to in the near future. I would highly recommend this vest to anyone who likes to keep warm especially in the winter.
Warm and comfy!

Super warm and comfy is the best way to describe this vest!Just a tip- long press the battery to power on the battery. Then press the âaâ button at the bottom to turn on the heat. This vest gets warm quickly, so no need to freeze when you first put it on.The removable panels on the sides is an ingenous design. This will fit everyone from a size 0 all the way to a 3xl it seems. I (the wife) am a 6/8, and found it best to remove the panels for a snug fit.Overall 5/5 on this piece!
Meh

Doesnât heat evenly at all. I felt like my neck was almost burning but my shoulders were cold. Also the battery is 3 times the weight of my cell phone. Very bulky, hot to the touch and heavy. Battery doesnât hold charge well and the connection to the actual vest is spotty. Sometimes the vest wouldn't power on even when plugged into a fully charged battery.
Update: no longer works.

Update: I liked this vest. Unfortunately it now self turns off after a minute or 2. I thought I was accidentally hitting the on/off button on the battery, so I held the battery and it still turned off by itself. I am 15 days past the return date.I took a chance and bought this vest mainly because it has 3 zip in/out side panels so you can make it larger or smaller to fit you or to fit over a jacket. The panels are well made and easy to use. I also like the different temperature settings. Make sure you read the instructions on recharging the battery and using your jacket. I never would have found the on/off button. Included is a 50% off coupon for a second battery. I've only used the vest for 2 days but the longest 1 battery lasted was 6 hours. My neck was nice and warm for those 6 hours, so I'll be getting that 2nd battery.
Great vest for skiing
Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2020
I got this vest for Christmas. I am always cold when we are snow skiing. We just got back from a ski vacation, and I have to say, this was one of my best gifts ever! I wasn't cold the entire time on the mountain. The battery outlasted the time we spent skiing each day. I didn't have it on the highest setting though. It does seem to have an auto shutoff after about 3 hours. I just had to remember to hit the power button again at lunch time, so it would shut off on the ski hill. The only downside to this vest is that you can't use it as a battery backup for your phone (no usb outlet). The battery pack and plug to the vest are specific to this item. I don't think you would be able to use any other battery but theirs for the vest.With all of the different panels they send, you can really tailor the fit for your size. I'm a size 8, and was able to adjust the vest to fit perfectly over my under layer for a nice fitted look. I used the vest as a mid layer under my ski jacket. I would never usually pick orange for a color, but this is a really nice burnt orange color. It isn't a bright orange.
I'm warm again!

At first I pooh-poohed these vests, but after being cold for 12 straight hours last weekend at a dog agility trial in an open barn, I decided to check them out. I looked at a lot of different vests before deciding on this one. As soon as it arrived TODAY, I put it on, and can't take it off. I am so warm. It is comfortable, soft, and easy to use. It arrived already expanded, which made it too big for me (5'6", 145 pounds), so I removed the large panel they had on, and just added the small panel and it fits great. I love the next heating. The pockets are comfy for my hands. I am wearing it over a long sleeve t-shirt and a hoodie sweatshirt. I envision using this a lot this winter as there are more dog agility trials coming up in February for me. And now I will be warm and smiling instead of shivering in that cold barn!!
Great for dialysis patients
Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2020
I have dialysis 3 days a week for 4 hours and they keep the clinic as cold as a meat locker. Although they provide a blanket and I take an extra blanket, plus scarf and gloves, I still get cold. They do not allow anything that must be plugged in so electric blankets are out. So I found these battery heated vests. I ordered an adjustable unisex but it was too big although it did pretty good for warming up, plus I had to supply my own battery pack. (I'm going to see if someone else at the clinic wants it or I will donate it, it was half the price of this one.) Then I found this one and it is specifically for women and the smallest size fits me perfectly (less than 100 lbs). In addition, there are six heating elements so I can get my hands warm. This has made dialysis, at least concerning the cold, so much more tolerable.

This vest is exactly what I needed. As someone with poor circulation due to medical conditions this gave me what I needed to enjoy winter again. Warms up quickly, battery lasts a long time. I also like the removable panels to allow to make bigger or smaller.
