I live in Southern California, therefore the time I spend in heavy coats is minimal. I didn't want to spend a lot on a coat this year.
So far I am VERY pleased with this coat! It is warm, comfortable, and the fit is quite flattering, especially considering this is a rather bulky garment. I love this coat. I've received many compliments, and expect to have it for many winters to come. And the price...come on! I recommend this coat!

** There was one negative; upon opening the package, I immediately smelled cigarette smoke. It was wrapped in the original packaging, with tags attached, but the odor was unmistakeable!
It took some effort to get rid of the offending scent. Sprayed it with perfume, still smelled smoke. Sprayed it with linen spray, still smelled smoke. Ran it through the dryer with dryer sheets, still smelled smoke. Hung it outside for a few hours, FINALLY smoke smell was gone....Whew!
