Heated vest.
The vest fits well. After charging up, it became warm as expected after pressing the on/off button. My wife likes it as she intends to use it for long walks over the winter months.

The Gift No One Knows They Want (Yet)
I borrowed my friend's vest without knowing it was a heated vest. After wearing it for a few minutes I knew I needed one. Initially I thought I wear it under a parka on cold days but more often than not I wear it around inside. It's like wearing a hug :). I definately recommend ordering true to size (don't size up) because it's better at keeping you warm when it's right against your body. The battery doesn't last that long (mine appears to die after ~4 hours) which can be annoying if you're wearing it all day. The biggest bummer about the vest is where the ouch for the battery pack is located. It hits me on my hip bone and is more of a nuisance than anything. Despite those irritations, this is definitely still a 5 star product for me. Highly recommend!

Get 1 size larger
I had bought a heating vest for myself for a different brand, and after I raved about it to my wife and mother-in-law, each of them wanted one too. My mother-in-law got the Small and it fits her perfectly. My wife (also normally a Small) had to get a Medium.With sizing taken care of, there is a battery included in the left-side, zippered, inner pocket. It connects to a detachable USB cable. The heating element is activated by long-pressing the power button found on the exterior, upper, left shoulder. It'll first turn a slow-blinking red, starting it in Automatic mode. Push the same button to cycle through as follows:- Initial Long-press (Slow-blinking Red): Warmup- White: Medium heat- Blue: Low heat- Red (Solid): High heatLong-press again to turn off.You can immediately feel the heat building up around the neck... Both women told me it felt really good. It eventually heated up the chest and upper too. It did not heat up the lower back or abs like mine.My biggest concern about this jacket is whether the heating element is safe and would catch on fire. The product description claims CE certification and to be safe. I certainly hope so. I have been wearing my vest for 4 nights now (unzipped in case it does catch fire so I could get out quickly), and so far, it appears to be quite safe. Only time will tell, and I hope I'd never have to find out otherwise. Both women tried theirs on for just half an hour to ensure that it worked.The battery supposedly lasts between 4-9 hours, depending on which heating mode you select. You can extend this with extra or higher-capacity batteries.The vest itself -- even without the heater turned on -- is quite warm and looks great. As long as the vest continues to operate safely, this is one of those "life changing" products to take camping/boondocking.

Heats up well
I bought three of these for my daughters after having bought and returned another brand. This brand appears to be better constructed and more heavy duty. They heat up quickly and have good battery life.They were a big hit and well received. Just wish more colors were available.

Love it
The vest is my wife’s favorite cold weather garment! The peace of mind is worth every penny. We do a lot of outdoor activities and it is her go to garment.I have worn the vest and it is toasty and certainly takes the edge off.I would recommend this for personal use or as a gift.

Keeps shutting off!
I was so excited to get this vest as I perform outside in the winter! However, disappointment soon followed.. each time I turn on the vest (by pushing the outside button on the vest) I have to first press the button on the battery pack itself (Which is located on the inside pocket of the vest and hard to get too.. especially if one is wearing multiple layers). This is little issue if I would only need to press that battery pack button once to turn on.. after doing that and passing the outer vest button the whole jacket will let me cycle through the temps (low, medium, and high as indicated by different colored lights). The issue??? It will stop lighting up and lose heat after only about 10 minutes of wear- despite having a fully charged battery! Then I have to take off all the layers to press that inside battery pack button (again) so that the outer vest button will let me turn on the vest and select which heat setting I want (low, medium, high).Why I have to press the battery pack button on the inside of the jacket before pressing the outside button every time is beyond me because from the directions it sounds like you only need to use the outside button.. Which makes sense.Why it shuts off every so often and makes me power it back in is also beyond me.I usually wear a medium in clothes.. But this was more like an XS! Barely fit.Very annoying, very disappointed..

Just in time
I bought this for my wife for Christmas. She has horses and it just got cold. She loves it keeps her nice and warm without having to add additional layers. She is already thinking of buying a second one.

Defective battery but replaced with excellent customer service!
So called ‘upgraded battery’ does not work and will not charge. Was not even usedonce! We were contacted by customer service who have been very helpful. Unfortunately the battery replacement was also problematic as it did not last an hour before quitting. We have just received a third battery which appears to be fully charged out of the box. I believe this has been tested properly. Hopefully,this one lives up to expectations. We will test it out and I will return to update. If I could give 5 stars for customer service I would. Our Rep, Cindy, has been very prompt and helpful at all times trying to resolve our issue. I will give a product review once it has proved itself as advertised.I am adding this to update. Our third battery is doing well and performs as promised. Customer service was determined to solve this problem and they did. The only reason I am giving 4 stars is because I believe a company needs to ensure proper product testing BEFORE it reaches the consumer. This is especially necessary for online purchases where the customer is left to the goodwill of the company and it’s policies.I order a lot from Amazon, but similar experiences are starting to give me pause, and my confidence in purchasing in person, in store, gives me far more reassurance and less hassle.

Fits big, but nice and warm
Fits bigger than expected. Doesn’t have much of a feminine shape. The heat works well, the battery lasts as advertised. The compass doesn’t work at all.

Warm and cozy
Bought this as a gift for my wife and she absolutely loves this vest it keeps her warm and cozy even in the coldest temperatures and she loves the three settings permitting her to adjust the vest to the ambient temperature so as not to be too hot or not warm enough.

Customer Service Is Excellent
After complaining about the battery malfunctioning, the company (Telguua) Customer Services replied in a very timely manner. They were polite and responsive and addressed my concerns thoroughly and professionally.The vest is wonderful! I am on my way out to walk the dog, it's -26. I dare say, for once, I am more comfortable outside than my Bernese Mountain Dog.
