I have owned the jacket for 2 months. It\'s a comfortable jacket. It fits well and it\'s cozy. My 1st impression was that it looked light. My concern was that it wouldn\'t shield me from the cold. I live in Canada and most of the time, I go outside, I have no need to turn the heat on as long as the weather doesn\'t dip below zero. When it does, I typically use the hottest setting. I often don\'t wear anything bulky under my coat and the jacket keeps me toasty even when I wear a light sweater. I wish the jacket had a warmer setting because the maximum setting is not as warm as I prefer. I work outside some days and the jacket keeps me warm. I have no need to stuff my coat pockets with heat packs like some of my coworkers. I do not feel hot when the jacket is set at at its highest heat setting - I am comfortable. I tend to use a lower heat setting when I step on transit or step inside. The jackets price is good value. I would rather buy another Ororo jacket over a ridiculously expensive unethical Canada Goose jacket. Plus, you don\'t need to over extend yourself financially to make a fashion statement because my coworkers noticed my heated jacket immediately when they noticed the button light when I powered it on. I prefer if the power button did not light up because I don\'t like drawing attention to my heated jacket. Anyway, it\'s a great investment. I hope the company includes 2 batteries with future purchases because the cost of batteries are expensive. I recommend the jacket.
