This heated gilet was so useful in the colder months as it is cheaper to heat a person than heating a room. The good thing with a gilet is that you can walk around the house with it unlike when you cover yourself with a blanket.
It was -3 yesterday and I couldn’t feel it wearing this vest. Get a decent power pack and it will last for hours
I bought this to help combat the cold weather, it works well and I’m very pleased, I found 20-30 minutes on top setting then dropping down to lowest setting helps the power bank last a full shift of work, I can’t fault the jacket but the power bank (sold separately) is large and noticeably quite heavy though the warmth will make up for any discomfort, I have given four stars because it doesn’t warm as shown in pictures but overall I’m a happy customer.
Heats up quickly. Bodywarmer is super cosy without heat as it’s fleece lined. Stylish bodywarmer A*
I’ve used this Gillet every single day since I received it nearly a month ago and it’s been a complete game changer for me. I go outside to smoke and it’s been very cold lately so I put this Gillet on under my coat, set it to max and within minutes I can feel the warmth coming through. Its more than enough to take the chill off and makes standing outside way more comfortable for me, I even leave it on for ages when I come back inside.
I only use it on the highest heat setting as I feel the lower ones aren’t really that effective. The manufacturer images show large areas of the vest are heated but really it’s just the areas around the two front pockets, a patch in the middle of the back and around the back of the collar. Don’t get me wrong though, the heated areas are very effective!
In terms of size, I’m normally a large in coats so I went with large for this Gillet. In my opinion it runs slightly too large as although it fits in terms of length, I find it quite baggy around the chest and neck which is a shame as you feel the heat much better when you pull it tight around you. It’s not too baggy though and there’s room if you have a bit of a belly, which I don’t.
You turn it on by holding down on each of the two buttons and it comes on in automatic mode which starts with high heat and turns it down after a short while. I don’t like the automatic mode so I press each button three times to keep it set on high heat. I run it on a 20,000mAh battery pack which easily fits in the inside pocket and provides nearly 8 hours of warmth on the highest heat setting.
I don’t have much to say about the quality apart from it seems well made for the price, the stitching is nicely done throughout, I like the feel of both the fleece lining and outer smooth shell material, and in general I’m pleased with the quality of it. The Gillett can be machine washed at 30 C and tumble dried on a low heat.
Overall, as my first heated Gillet I think it’s an excellent product and it really does make you feel nice and warm whether you use it indoors or out. I’ve had about 50 hours of use from it now and its always worked flawlessly. At around 45 I think it represents good value for what you are getting. It’s a product I’m more than happy to recommend and I feel four stars is appropriate for it, buy with confidence!
This heated vest is a game changer for my husband who works the night shift at a control room. He was complaining that he’s still cold even with layers of clothing. After wearing this vest, he’s not cold anymore and he only has to wear this vest and a light jacket, and he’s nice and warm the whole night. The vest seems well-made, lightweight and comfortable to wear.
I ordered L for him and it’s quite a close fitting with not too much space to spare, but that might be better for the heat. He is 5’10” and weighs around 80 kg.
It has three temperature controls, with the highest temp can go up to 55-60/131-140, and this has kept him nice and warm when he’s walking outside in the cold. It heats up instantly, once it’s connected to the power bank. It gives off good heat overall, however he finds the warmth really helps in the lower back as he suffers from lower back pain.
The zips and stitching seem neat and well-made. The zipped pockets are deep and they are perfect for him to keep his mobile phone, keys and some other small items.
The material is of good quality, it’s water and wind resistant, and it’s machine washable.
Everything is perfect about this vest, except that it doesn’t come with a power bank. However, since we already have a few power banks at home, this is not a problem.
In short, a well-made and good quality heated vest that works well so that we have no issues in recommending this.
Ok, I like this jacket, the heating side of it works great, you really feel the benefit from it when you’re outside. The style of it is okay too and the fit is as expected. The material is nice and soft and warm as it is, its fleece lined which makes it warm anyway. The settings I found hard to work out but pressing the buttons had it heating up anyway. The only thing I don’t particularly like is the buttons labels, one is fine labelled ‘back’ the front has been affectionately called ‘belly’ It’s a minor point but surely front would have sufficed 🙂
That said the jacket is cheaper than some others and the function side of it works just as good so if you want one but are looking for a slightly cheaper one this jacket will perform and keep you toasty warm.
I have used a few heated vests in recent years as tend to spend sometime outdoors in winter months. This particular heated vest is very comfortable to wear. Fitted perfectly. Doesn’t come with it’s own power bank however I do have a few so this wasn’t a problem. There are three heating levels. I found that level one was warm enough for me. Very pleased to recommend.
This is a well-made heated vest, you do need your own power bank to power it has 3 heat setting and you know which one is set as the button changes from red to white or blue depending on what setting you have, it heats up quickly and also does noit take long at all to heat up, I am a UK XL in size and XL fits me snug so check the sizing chart but your regular size should fit you, all in all, very happy.
