Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Sweater Fleece Pullover

I love everything about this pullover except the collar on all of them that I own (8)have turned a funky pinkish color. It's really annoying. I always wash with like colors and never dry them...always air dry. I still wear them but it's super annoying when people see my collar where the buttons snap. I would love to buy more but I'm hesitant that the other colors (only a few that I don't own) will turn color as well.

Fabric not soft, poor drape.I was looking for soft, warm, cuddly. Seemed rubbery like a wet-suit.

Apparently, I didn't read carefully. This is not a fleece. It's a weird knit(?), not sweater and not fleece. Hate paying to return items.

My daughter loved this pullover but then we washed and dried it according to instructions and it shrunk. The sleeves are now too short. Very disappointed in the quality.

I ordered smalls because I am between a 6 and an 8. When the sweaters arrived they just barely fit in the arms (I am 5'9"). After awhile I got annoyed enough at the short sleeves that I exchanged them for larges. The larger size is very baggy in the torso now, but at least the sleeves are long enough.

This hoodie is warm and beautiful in the kelp green color, but unfortunately the sewing at the ends of both sleeves in the wrist area is very poor. After just 5 weeks of wear mainly around the house, the stitching and wrist piping are beginning to pull, lose elasticity, and a gaping hole is starting to form on one sleeve. See photos. I will most likely be getting the wrist stitching reinforced by a seamstress, which will add $$ to the $79 price tag.

I ordered this expecting something similar to what i am now wearing..soft fleece.. a product known To me originally as 'chinchilla' back in the 1980's...origins-patagonia i think. WELL, THIS PRODUCT FEELS NOTHING LIKE THAT TO MY SURPRISE.ALTHOUGH ITS SOFTER ON THE INSIDE, THE SURFACE IS MORE LIKE A CHEAP POLYESTER PRODUCT. I will unfortunately return it as its not at all what i expected.

I am a big llbean fan. I have most of their quarter zip sweaters and fleece tops. This top looked stylish and well made when I unpacked it. I ordered my usual medium but found it difficult to put on. Once I had it on, the body of it fit well but the collar was way too tall. Even if I folded it down, the back stood up too high. I wanted to like it but I knew it would be irritating to wear. Sadly, I'm returning it tomorrow.

I really wanted to like this. My husband gave me a similar fleece sweater from L.L. Bean 20 years ago and I still wear it, but it needs to be replaced. The reviews on the head opening are correct - one more snap needs to be added for ease of on and off. Also, the length is simply too long. If L.L. Bean would just add a cinch cord for the waist the problem would be solved. Instead it makes one look frumpy because it hits awkwardly on the hip. Sadly, this was returned.

The extra small fits very tight across the bust/shoulders. I agree with a previous post (same issue). I always order a size extra small at llbean but this sweater in extra small is tight across the shoulders and difficult to get on and off overhead. I cut the tags off already before realizing the issue otherwise I'd exchange for the small. The cranberry color is beautiful! And the sleeves fit nicely, also the length and width of the actual body (below the chest) is perfect. So weird and a little frustrating!

I always wear an extra small at LL Bean, but this jacket barely got over my shoulders. The head opening was tight and I struggled pulling it down. Taking it off was extremely tricky and took a while. The bust, waist and hip proportions were fine, but the shoulders were definitely not right. The color was also off. I purchased the green(forgot the name)and it was more of a gray. The weight of the item would be great for fall. I would return it, but have taken all of the tags off. Be careful ordering this item.

Great fabric but narrow in the shoulders and the front pocket protruded . I sent this item back.

I usually rave about all my products, but not this one.. It is terrilbe to take on and off...a real struggle. The snaps do not snap and I want them to very much..I chose size M in a pink.. I spent a great deal with duty and tax and it was not worth it..So,sorry...material is good though a bit rough...???

I ordered a medium ( 10-12) the item fit like a small (6-8) very disappointed. since I don't have a store to return it to I have to ship the item back at my expense. I will not order the large since I don't know for sure how that will fit and it cost me $6.50 just to do an even exchange due to LLBean sizing being wrong.

Have not received the fudge. Ridiculous and I paid extra just horrible horrible service.

More itchy than other ones in the past. Was so excited to see the Gingerbread color for fall and had to have it. But look at the pocket in the photo. Strings and frays everywhere. It was like that around the pockets and the sleeve ends. Not the quality I was expecting. I ordered this in the tan color in an XL tall. Sadly after washing it I couldn't believe the amount it shrank. When I first tried the xl tall on it looked great with leggings. After washing per instructions you couldn't even tell I ordered the tall. So now stuck with 2 shirts I can't wear.

I bought size petite large. It belt snug and bulky. I am not sure it would fit me after one wash. If you buy size up is my suggestion.

I bought myself a present, the Artic Blue pullover after loving the plum pullover. I have a blue zip that I like but prefer pullovers, my go to most every day.. The new one now has a softer fleece lining that I really like. Got a size up, for roominess. Southern New England

Your prices are off the chart! No matter how good a product is, these prices are exorbitant! Even your so called sales are too much money.

Cuff tore apart after two years. I only wore the sweater in the cooler months, so it wasn't overly-worn. I contacted customer service and received a generic email stating I could return the item if within one year (although I said it was two years old). Very disappointed in the quality.

I have only had it for 3 weeks and the stitches at the bottom are unraveling. I cannot wear it anymore. Disappointed

Like the style of this sweater...hoping it won't shrink when I wash it...remains to be seen. Nice quality for the money.

I did not like the feel of the fabric. It is stiff and not at all cozy. Also the collar does not stay folded down. The size runs small. Not true to size as they claimed.

I was very disappointed in this sweater. I gave it as a gift. It is rough and scratchy. Not at all the quality I expect of lllbean. I didn't check it before I wrapped it up and was embarrassed when my friend opened it. Not at all happy with it.

Found it too bulky for winters in Mississippi so returned it
