What customers say:

The Ultralight 850 Down Hooded Jacket is praised for its exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio, with customers able to stay comfortable in temperatures down to the 20s Fahrenheit with just a light layer underneath. The jacket is described as incredibly soft, comfortable, and well-designed, with features like an adjustable hood, deep pockets, and a slim yet roomy fit that allows for layering. Customers highlight the jacket's versatility, noting it works well as a standalone piece or as a warm mid-layer. However, some customers expressed concerns about the jacket's durability, with the thin nylon shell being prone to tearing and ripping, especially with more rugged use. Overall, the majority of customers are extremely satisfied with the jacket's quality and functionality.

Warm coat but difficult zipper
The zipper doesn’t always work. It must not have been installed correctly. It takes me a long time to zip up

Very light, very warm
surprisingly warm considering the light weight. I think the down filling makes all the difference. But then it is an LL Bean after all.
