Brilliant piece of clothing! My wife loves it because it’s not too bulky under her top coat and is very efficient and toasty even on the lowest setting. Highly recommended
Very comfortable fit and have used it a couple of times so far to teach outdoor agility lessons. On medium it was lovely and warm and I didn’t need my outer coat fastened. After a total of 3.25 hours the battery is showing 50%. Although expensive I am very pleased so far with the gilet.
So far I’ve found the power pack and every aspect of the vest good quality. I like the shade of blue and it’s snug yet roomy enough and long enough to really heat you well. Having heated pockets is brilliant for warming my hands
Ororo’s customer service performed splendidly with very prompt emails, advice and arrangements. A replacement came very promptly. Congratulations to Ororo agent Hong for his care.
Good quality, looks good. Easy to use and gears up very quickly. One slight issue I have is that the neck heated element is off to one side, so only heats one side of your neck!
My husband bought this for me and it’s amazing! The battery life could be longer but apart from that it’s saved me in the winterfits nicely under my winter coat, or even under a warm jumper. I love it!
I bought this in October, and then bought an additional battery in November so I always have one charged. It’s been a brilliant thing to have through the winter, and has helped keep heating costs down. It’s also been great for frosty mornings on a bike. I’ve recommended it to everyone that asks about it.
Then, on a chilly evening a couple of weeks ago, it broke. The button wouldn’t depress and so it wouldn’t heat up. I contacted the seller via Amazon message and they responded quickly, asked for a photo of the serial number label to be sent, and then dispatched me a new one under the warranty. It came directly from China and was delivered by DHL today. I’m very pleased to have a functional garment again, and am also pleased with the very good customer service – thank you.
We are very impressed with the garment ! Fits great, my wife is a 10 top and the medium is perfect.
The warmth is really cosy, just what she needed, when it gets chilly but not enough for the heating 🙂
I do think it is a little expensive, but hopefully it will last well past its gaurantee time ?
I bought this gilet as a present for a friend. However, my husband was bought one for Christmas, which he has hardly stopped wearing. The gilet itself is warm, the heated element is an added bonus. The battery charges reasonably quickly and lasts for the day using it on and off pottering around the garden, and could easily go on for another day. This brand was recommended and although one of the more expensive, is one of the best.
Bought for an elderly relative who is delighted with it. Real quality item, breathes quality and heats up well. Should last a long time. Only quibble is the expense of additional batteries – it would be useful to have more than one, for when the one that comes with the jacket needs recharging. But not at this price! Would rather buy a coat as well and use the battery that comes with that. Perhaps the maker could reconsider its pricing on the spare batteries. I can’t think they sell many. However, don’t let that put you off buying a great product at a reasonable price.
This gilet was perfect I bought it for my wife for when she was walking the dogs in temperatures of -12C some days. I’m not able to do it any longer . She also wore it around the house with the heated panels on low because of the costs of central heating . Excellent product A literal lifesaver great value for money
I liked the style and the battery was small. The product suits an average shape. As I have a larger bust it was a bit tight at the top.
It looks stylish and was not bulky. I have recommended it to friends.
Well made and seems good quality material, my sister, son and and my daughter all have one of these and are very happy with them. Mine arrived today and I am very pleased with it. However Large is the biggest size and although I am finding it very snug I will keep it purely because as said they don’t do a bigger one. I am a small size 18 and couldn’t get it to do up over a cardigan so will have to go with long sleeve tops of which I have very few so looks like I’ll be wearing long sleeved PJ tops sometimes.
This comes with everything you need including battery pack, charger and plug.
It is so perfectly cosy. Used on low heat and retains warmth when switched off. Great for use in a cooler room especially if remaining seated for a long while.
The battery is a little heavy but not really noticeable while in use.
Very glad I bought this – it will be brilliant over the winter and allow me to keep the thermostat a little lower.
I’m a size 8-10, so the XS fits like a glove. I charged the battery, plugged it in to the heated vest, pressed the logo on the LH chest, it pre-heated for 5 mins on high (red) then went to medium (white), I pressed the logo once more to take it down to low (blue) and I was gently warmed up for the next 10 hours. I wear it over a vest, t-shirt and gilet, so three layers underneath, then the heated vest, then a fleece jacket on top, so I’m comfortably warm. As things stand at the moment, I feel I can face the winter without heating the house, just heat myself instead. I’ve sent for an extra battery so I’ve got a charged battery ready for when my current battery runs out of charge, I’ll alternate the batteries. Fingers crossed that this heated vest lasts, hopefully a couple of years seems reasonable, have to wait and see.
I work nights and sometimes it gets a bit cold despite lots of layers. I really was quite sceptical. But when you are standing at a bus stop in the snow with bitter wind this jacket was a godsend! So easy to use.
The Gillet itself is bulkier but it does as stated . Good bit of warmth on it’s own and if needed you have the heated option. Battery charges and is fully charged when all 4 dots lights up. Looks like a mobile phone adapter/charger. Sizing. I am a good 14-16 So I would say the gillet is 43″ chest. I managed a t-shirt and mini (not micro) fleece underneath. I have used for a couple of months now and I would seriously not look back. Absolutely Brilliant Love it. The heat generated gives you the same feeling when relaxing in a warm bath. I did think expensive but it is worth every penny. Hopefully the cost will get less because that to me was the only negative. Heated pockets, back of neck and across back of lungs. Super for anyone with pain in those areas aswell. My electric blanket was my no1 christmas present a few years back. This gillet was my no1 christmas present this year. To myself xxx NOTE: Press long button until red it flashes or comes and goes. from this situ it will just go onto med setting white. when white choose your setting.just press once you will get blue coolest setting.press again you will get white. press again you will get red permanently. Important to know this. longer press to put on or off. short press to get each setting in turn. Red is warmest. I always wear outdoors with jacket incase rains. If wearing indoors you might want turtle neck type jumper as the heat settings can get pretty hot at base of neck. If I am outdoors you can leave top layer open and access pockets to keep hands warm. Purchased last Year .
