This is an amazing jacket I first saw it when I came out at its launch and had an opportunity to try it on and had to have one I have since purchased one and it is amazing that he did pockets alone is worth the cost but the jacket simply amazing!

    Great jacket!
    The jacket works great! Nice and warm .. the only thing that would make it even better is if the battery lasted longer. It seems to only last 3 to 4 hours .. wish it would last the whole day!

    Very Nice Jacket
    I like this jacket even without the battery inserted. It is extremely water resistant and I like the style. Using the battery, it keeps your back and hands warm while they are in the pockets. I haven't noticed much warmth in the chest or arm areas but you can definitely feel warmth on your back. The battery is kind of heavy and positioned on your left hip. I felt I was bumping the battery when I moved through narrow passages.The battery life at full charge has been a little disappointing at about 40 minutes on high. Also, the battery seems to lose some juice when you don't use it for a couple of days. Maybe I have a mild short? The zippers are good and reliable; a rarity in today's jackets. I would recommend this jacket.

    Love it
    I love it. If it was destroyed today I'd order another one. I was kinda scared about the battery life only lasting 3 hours on high but the truth is that it's such a warm coat anyways after about 15 min I turn it off and work for an hour or so. I get about 3 days out of the battery in our area. Love it

        Just the type of product I have been looking for. Keeps me warm during all outdoor activities.
        I enjoy hunting and most other outdoor activities, but do not like to use layer after layer to stay warm. This coat is perfect!

        Good, but could be great with a high temp that was actually high
        Let me first off say I have had headed jackets from another tool brand. This jacket is great, but the heat doesn't compare to the heat from other brands. It will take the edge off the chill in the air. Battery life depends on the heat setting you are using as well if you are using both the body heat and the hand warmer. This is a nice looking jacket. It can be worn at a work site or even at a suit and tie event, I think it is that nice of a jacket. Quality is great, but the heat settings should be higher.

        Bought new Got used
        heated jacket M12.....Nowhere when I ordered this online did it say I would receive a previouly owned one. Received via ups today in a very used smashed box that had obviously already been opened. Inside all pieces have been tried out as all seals broken including the plastic enclosing the jacket. All the parts seem to be here so I guess thats a plus considering. Nice jackets though i must say. 5 stars for that but minus 2 stars for the previously owned stunt. Works very good.

          Doesn't Live Up To My Expectations
          When I chose this jacket I chose it because I expected it to heat up to the point that I would feel the warmth in fairly cold conditions. Living in New England, it can easily get down to 0'F at night. Unfortunately, this coat doesn't make me feel all warm inside. I like the look and feel of the jacket. It has plenty of pockets and seems to be well constructed. However, with all of that said, when I'm out plowing my driveway or outside during a cold winter night, I want to feel the warmth that the heating elements provide, and unfortunately I just don't. I will give this coat my recommendation only because in more moderate conditions it helps slightly, however, once the wind kicks up and the temps. really drop, I don't believe this jacket provides what I expect....a feeling of warmth surrounding me.

            Awesome heated jacket
            I bought this heated jacket for my boyfriend. He absolutely loves it. It is very warm, yet maneuverable. He works outside doing construction and loves it. He is the envy of all of his friends. This was an ideal purchase.

              Best Insulated Jacket Ive ever owned.
              Even without the heating feature, this jacket is the WARMEST insulated jacket ive ever owned. And with the lithium ion battery pack and heating unit, i wore this jacket in 0F, misting rain and NEVER got cold. I highly recommend this jacket. Wish I had matching pants!

              Coat
              Bought this as a gift. Large for an adult male that is 6'1" and 180 lbs, fits him perfectly. Order the size that fits, I have worn it, but given it is too big for me, I'm 5'6 and 130lbs it doesn't keep me as warm... the heat escapes. But it keeps him very warm. I would not suggest ordering it a size up if you want to get the most out of the jacket. The cell phone charger in the coat is pretty awesome too.

              Great heated Jacket worth it!
              This is a great heated jacket, I have both the red and black version to this jacket and I must say its worth it! Its thinner than most winter jacket yet warm enough to beat those sub zero temps even without the heaters on. Its both wind and water proof, I have even used my jacket for several snowboarding trips in Utah. The USB charger is the cherry on top. I can charge my devices and also keep myself warm at the same time. One charge tends to last about 4-6 hours. If you use the M12 2.0 batteries they last even longer.

              Wish I had purchased it sooner.........
              Happy with my coat. It works about 1/2 day on a battery. I have 2 batteries so works all day. It doesn't get much below 20 degrees here and coat is plenty warm down to that temperature.

              Great Jacket that came at the right time
              The jacket arrived right as the cold spell hit in the KC, MO area. I actually spent time in my unheated garage cleaning and organizing it. First, let's look at the positives; light-weight but warm even without being turned on, I loved the separate pocket warming feature, I enjoy that the heat can be adjusted to 3 levels. Now for the not so positive; I am color blind and in daylight I am unable to tell if it switches are off or on high - don't see red on black. My son and grandson have both tried the jacket and want one for themselves. Looks like I have Christmas or birthdate ideas already.

                Heated jackets are nice when its chilly
                Overall this is a really nice jacket. The material feel high quality and the way it is put together looks and feels like it should hold up well. The fit of the jacket seems true to size. I am a good size guy, 6'2" and 260lbs (a little bit of belly) and I have gorilla like long arms. I usually have issues with long sleeve anything not have long enough sleeves, not with this jacket, it fits well and can move with freedom and the sleeves don't ride up my arms. The heat works well and there are separate zones, one for the pockets and one for the rest of the jacket. Both zones have 3 levels of heat and off of course. The control are on the upper left chest and are easy to control even with gloves on. I usually just use the high setting and it heat really well. No need for seat heaters in he car. The battery doesn't last that long maybe 2 or 3 hours, but it's long enough that i can usually get 2 or 3 days between changes. The battery is located in a pocket on the back left which is nice and out of the way, I don't even realize it's there. Charging/changing the battery does require that I take off the jacket. If you have 12 volt Milwaukee tools this is a nice addition if you have to be out in the cold. If looking for a heated jacket I would choose one based on fit first and then the one that I have other compatible tools with. As I have a jacket from another mfg and it's very similar and the little pluses or minuses wouldn't make either one better than the other. The one bonus of this one is that is says that is it washable, some heated jackets say to only wipe does the surfaces of the jacket and not to wash or launder them. Not really sure how I like the idea of putting the jacket in a washing machine. I'll just try to keep it clean as it looks to nice to get it dirty.

                Husband loves it
                Bought this on the recommendation of a friend. I tried his on and knew my husband would love it for our cold weather. My husband loves it especially the hand warmers in the pockets. I think I'll have to order one for myself too. The sizes run a little big but that's better I think for ease of movement when working. The battery pack is in a good place too. I would highly recommend this for anyone who has to be out in cold weather a lot & wear another layer overtop to protect the jacket from dirt. On high with the pocket warmers on the battery lasts 4-6 hrs so I would recommend getting an extra battery like I did.

                  Heated Milwaukee Jacket
                  The jacket was purchased as a Christmas gift for my son. He likes it, it's stylish, the heating system works... our only wish is that it came with two batteries so one could be charging while the other one is in use. That's not a complaint, or a major issue... overall, we're happy with the purchase.

                  Great purchase!
                  Although it is a bit on the expensive side, this was a great purchase! The jacket heats up quickly and the multiple settings for both the jacket and the pockets is great especially if you are doing any strenuous work in it. The M12 battery is heavy enough that you can feel it, but light enough that it doesn't interfere with the way it wears. If you were to get the adapter for the M18 battery, it might be a little awkward feeling at first. Overall, an excellent product and looks sharp!

                    It's All Good!
                    I bought this coat for someone else as a Christmas gift and he's thrilled with it. His only negative comment was that he wished the battery life was longer. But, do batteries ever last long enough for any of us?! Over all, he's very happy with his coat and said he would recommend it to others with no reservations.

                    My husband loves it!
                    My husband loves his new jacket! We spend a lot of time outdoors for sports and this jacket is perfect for keeping him warm. He loves how easy it is to use and that it has separate hand and body controls. He likes that the battery has a USB port to charge his phone in an emergency and that it has guides for headphones as well. He said it was the best Christmas present he received!
