Cozy Warm ... but ...
I do love this vest since I am someone who always is cold ... which is why I gave it 5 stars. It does keep me cozy warm. But there are a few things that I would like to see improved: First is where the battery sits on your lower left back (right over kidney). As at least one other reviewer commented, its brutal when sitting and especially if driving. Second is the battery ... it doesn't last long when heating the vest and takes forever to charge. But those two things aren't enough for me to send the vest back because it does have a lot of good features!! Here are just a few:1. It keeps me warm when tending to farm animals on these cold-cold mornings before work!2. I work in a production area that is often kept at 40 - 50 degrees; I wear this vest under my insulated coveralls and I'm toasty warm.3. Even without the battery (e.g., when its charging), the vest keeps me warm ... it looks like it has "space blanket" type material on the inside.4. The fit is comfortable and forms well to the body (but not too tight).I highly recommend this vest, but I also recommend the makers find a better battery that lasts longer and place it in a better location.Thanks for reading and have a great 2024 !!

Great for the surprise cold of Colorado winters!
I bought this as a holiday season gift for my wife who was afraid of the cold winters as we were gearing up for a move from Florida to Colorado.Since we've been here she's used it on multiple occasions, even times when it was below 40 degrees, she was able to go from the car to the store or short walks outside without needing a jacket, wearing only this vest over a sweater. She loves the warmers in the pockets for your hands, and the warmers in the back of the collar for your neck.Overall a great purchase and a great item to have in the kit. Thus far she's only worn it a few hours at a time and we've never run the battery out on it regardless of the setting she chose.There's been a few times shes even worn it in the house in lieu of a heated blanket.We've since bought a few as gifts! 5 stars, would definitely recommend

Best vest to keep warm in the barn
This is a great vest. I bought this for my 10 year old who is a equestrian and needed something to keep her warm but still able to move. She is able to train with her horse, jump, and groom in the stables(where it is very cold) and she is always warm. She usually wears a long sleeve shirt and a hoodie or a thin jacket with the vest. I would recommend this item to anyone. Fact, the battery last about 2-3 hours but that is how long we are in there for. I did buy a size XS and still gives her room to be comfortable.

Wife Can't Stop Telling Everyone How Much She Loves This!
I did good! I got the "Venustas Women's Heated Vest with Battery Pack 7.4V, Heated clothes for women" for my wife for Christmas, and she loves it! She loves it so much she asked me to write this review!There are different versions. The one I bought has heated pockets and neck, both features she really likes. The description says it'll last 4.5 to 5 hours on medium and 2.5 to 3 hours on high. We haven't used it much yet, but she's happy with the battery life so far. She's been wearing it all day today, turning it on and off and up and down as needed. I got her a medium, and it fits about right.

Gasp! Game Changer!!!!
Winters in Maine are COLD! This vest makes living in Maine in the winter tolerable. Charge it up (takes a full charge in less than 30 minutes), put the vest on and press the button to High. It warms my entire back, the collar, pockets and the front. Full charge, heat set to High, lasts almost three hours. It’s thin enough to layer under a warmer coat (very cozy) or wear alone over a sweater. Great find and a must have for cold climates!

TOO MANY NEGATIVES
I worse this for 2 full days. And I’m going to list the pro’s and con’s below.Pro: it does get HOT.Cons:- Only runs on high 1.5 hours at most before completely dying.- Took the battery a total of 6 hours and 8 minutes to fully charge.- The battery pack sits in a pocket right in the middle of your lower back and feels like a brick to the kidneys.When I first used this I was very excited because of how hot it got. But that excitement ended quickly because the battery only lasts 1.5 hours max and then takes forever to recharge.I also found myself having to pull over on the side of the highway to take it off because the position the battery sits is PAINFUL. It’s like leaning up against a brick. I discovered the same issue wearing it at work trying to sit in my desk chair.So if you just need a short stent of heat while not sitting, this vest is for you. Otherwise, don’t get it. It needs to be redesigned.

Excellent product.
This is a wonderful, must have, product to cope with low metabolism. My wife starts the morning wearing this vest until hot chocolate and activity kicks in. I use it to prewarm her bathrobe and occasionally use it as a throw. Worn under a jacket it will keep you warm outdoors. This is my third purchase of this product after dog dismantled first one. The salvaged battery is an excellent accessory to facilitate optimum use of the vest. Charging one battery while using the other allows for uninterrupted use.

It actually warmed my wife up a good amount.
My wife loved this heated vest as a Christmas gift, specially the heating areas for the back and the neck.Her only complaint (because if it's the wife, there are complaints) was that she felt discomfort where the battery sits.Solution: Deal with it OR deal with the cold.Outcome: She has dealt with it professionally.

Superior heated vest if you work outside
Gave it as a gift, and my daughter loved it. She works outside every day in all weather and this works for her. She recommends to anyone wanting to stay warm.

Love it!
I am so happy with this vest. It was actually too warm to use on a -26 day snowboarding, it was perfect the same temperature for dogsledding. It is a really comfortable fit and a nice design.

Stay warm
Love this for the 2hr heat time that comes with this battery pack that is also a long ass time to charge up 6-7 if not a tad more to charge. Has 3 settings and it's perfect for under a jot so heavy coat for canadian winter. These jackets are not made for canadian winters PERIOD. I use mine under lighter coats and when I get to warm I shut it off but I do keep it at a low setting normally and it doesn't last loner than 3 hours. Is it worth buying? I'll say no, but if you want one to say you have one, go ahead 😊 I bought a large and it fits with a tee and nothing more. I normally wear a large in coats. Should have went with xl to wear at least a light knit under neath

World Class Customer Service
The vest has been great! Absolutely love it. Love is so much we purchased a second…The battery pack on the other hand didn’t last. Within the few months of use the pack would not hold a charge and we’d only get an hour ½ on medium. The customer service department was a treat and very professional to work with. Quick responses to my messages with solutions. This is why I purchased a second vest as they truly care and accept responsibility for their products. Now both my wife and I are able to enjoy our heated vests.

Fits small
It is a great vest, rechargeable battery which is good. Only thing is sizing is really small. Bought it for my mom who is a size small and she couldn't even do it up it was so tight. Over all great vest just size up for sure!
