Affordable, Functional, and Warm: A Practical Coat for Dog Walking and Everyday Use
I purchased the Amazon Essentials Women's Lightweight Full-Zip Water-Resistant Hooded Puffer Coat - in Burgundy XL And have been wearing daily for 2 months primarily for Dog Walking. I was looking for something affordable, warm, and functional—not too concerned with "cuteness"—and this coat delivers.PROS:QUALITY: solid quality in material and construction. Good zippers and color.Warmth: I've only warn in temperatures between 40-60°F and its defiantly warm enough especially when worn with layers, which works perfectly for my dog walking purpose. But I am sure it would be fine in colder temps too. Its not thick or dense, very light weight.Windproof: sort of... if you wear layer(s) underneath, it does a good job at blocking the wind.Sizing: I did buy big on purpose so as to be able to wear a bulky hoody underneath, and I really could have gone with a large vs XL- the hip / booty area is waaay big on me so you you need a little room there you should be covered!Material: slick fabric does not collect pet hair- big bonus over the fleece jackets. Wrinkles sort of disappear with wear after coming out of its stuff sack.Length: At 5'5", the XL hits just above knees, providing extra coverage and warmth. And when sitting, it's long enough to sit on.Sleeves: Nice long sleeves hit below the wrist, and have slim elastic cuffs that stay in place when pulled over gloves, keeping the warmth in.Pockets: Adequate. The pockets are deep enough to easily hold my phone and gloves. Good enough sizeConvenient for travel: It comes with a stuff sack, it packs REALLY small, is very light weight which would be great for packing light while traveling, and the coat has a hanging hook which i appreciate- doesn't fall off coat rack.Hood: Has a big hood and is a nice feature for light protection and fits over beanieCONS:Pocket Zipper Pulls: While the small, discreet zipper pulls offer a sleek look, and flattering silhouette, they are difficult to grab, especially with gloves or long nails. This can be frustrating. You will be taking off your gloves.No Inside Pockets: It would be helpful to have inside pockets which I thought it did from the photos. It does not. The actual pocket are just tacked on the inside of the coat and you cold pin or sew them at the bottom to create an inside pocket.No Drawstring on Hood: The hood has no drawstring, so it can blow off in windier conditions.Overall, I would recommend this coat, at the price i paid, I'd buy it again for light warmth, travel, and casual outdoor use or travel. I'm thinking of getting another one in a smaller size as it really could be more "cute" and flattering if I had purchased in my actual size. If you're looking for an affordable, practical option that balances warmth with lightweight design, this is a solid choice.

too difficult to find the correct size
I tried the 4x first since i wanted it big enough to wear a heavy sweter or blazer underneath. It was huge! I could wrap it over itself by about 5 inches on each side. So I figured i needed to actually go down 2 sizes. I ordered the 2X that came as an XXL (which i find is sometimes different). And of course, it was too tight on the sleeves and too tight by about 4-5 inches. Maybe the 3x would have will be just perfect, but is it worth trying again?Pros: a good lightweight packable coat. Medium length is ideal. Double zipper makes the coat easy to sit down in without having to completely unzip.

zipper drives me crazy
Love this coat except for the zipper - it’s almost always a fuss to line up the 2 sides exactly perfectly.I returned one of these because of the zipper, and the reordered one that I kept seemed ok at first but wasn’t really.Also I wish it had inside pockets. There are 2 fabric panels inside that look like pockets but strangely they’re wide open at the bottom! (I might stitch them closed if I can do it without the stitching coming through to the front and looking weird.)But the rest is great. Looks cute, nice hood that stays put. It’s a good medium weight and roomy enough to layer. I lived in it on a trip to Spain where it was in the 40’s-60’s (fahrenheit). Wouldn’t want it for colder than that.The perfect coat except for the zipper and no inside pockets.

Storage bag too small
Nice jacket for the price, but the accompanying drawstring bag that’s supposed to hold the jacket when not in use is much too small. It is quite impossible to squeeze the entire jacket into it.
