Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Petite Scotch Plaid Flannel Pajamas Plaid

The bottoms had a hole in the bottoms within the first year of wearing from normal wear & tear.

A lot of previous comments are about fit, but fabric softness and quality is what I am looking for. I've had a set of the solid PJ's for years that I hoped to replace with these and now am really on the fence because the overall quality is so bad. Fabric is thin, not the same weave as my old ones and somewhat scratchy. The stitching is sloppy. But I like the petite option, don't mind the loose fit and love all the pockets. I used to give these a presents and now am just sad. Thinking I'll return them. My old ones are so much better and aged so well! Come on, Bean's! you did it once you can do it again!

The size L tall for women will fit a person who is all legs and over 6'2", size 10-12 might be able to fit into these. I did not try them on before putting them in the wash and dryer. Inseam is about 36", after the wash. Rise is not proportional, arms are short, shoulders too narrow. Simply could not sleep in them, too tight. Wish I had tried them on before washing. Two stars because the fabric is so soft I wish I had pjs made of that.

I have purchased flannel PJs from LL Bean for a long time. I still wear a pair that are ten years old and they are great. However, these are not the same good quality PJ that LL Bean used to sell. Disappointing. A friend bought a LL Bean gift card for me so I could purchase these as a gift for Christmas. The flannel is thin and I can tell they would not last nearly as long as the ones I bought ten years ago. The style is really more like a men's style with buttons on the wrists(?!). Why? No no no! Never. The previous pair(s) I have bought (about four or five over the last decades) never had button wrists. The width is also narrower on the top than the ones I have and overall I cannot recommend them now. They are made in El Salvador. I am returning the order and will be stuck with an LL Bean Gift card I can't use. This was my last time shopping at LL Bean. I thought I'd give them one more chance after I had to return my last order for quality issues as well. Never again unfortunately. What happened to the made in the USA LL Bean company of the past?

I've worn these pajamas 4 times and washed twice and the fabric is not holding up. It's faded and there is piling/fuzballs already formed. I expected much more from LLbean

Third time I've bought flannel pjs from llbean in the last 3 years. Never had a problem before....THIS TIME: I washed them in cold water before wearing and they are covered with pills. Not happy. Interestingly, these pjs are actually a slightly thicker flannel than the previous ones. This should be a good thing....but I'm wondering if this helped contribute to the pilling? I was very careful washing them. I will keep them to hang around in but will not buy again. Absolutely NOT worth the price.

I bought a matching set of these pajamas for my partner and myself and both sets completely pilled in the dryer the first time I washed them. I followed the washing directions and now both sets are completely pilled. I would not expect this for the price point of these pajamas.

I hate giving it two stars, b/c it fits true to size and is very comfortable. Was purchased right before Christmas, as a gift. After wearing it just once, I was getting into bed and it ripped at the elbow while I was adjusting the covers. My wife said she could probably sew it up, but I was very upset that I got just one use. It was probably a freak occurrence, as my wife got a pair as well and they are still holding up.

These were so soft and cozy... until I washed them (cold, delicate cycle) and dried them. They pilled and the material changed texture and became rougher, if you can believe it. These are no longer the dream cozy pajamas I crave to put on at night. I'm so disappointed. They are just OK now. But not at all as fabulous before they saw a washing machine. And- I have to mention the tag in the shirt. It's on the bottom left side seam and it's really unbearable how itchy it is. I even operated on my shirt and took the tag off extra carefully to not damage the shirt and just a tiny bit of the tag is left and it STILL is so annoying that I wake up in the middle of the night and have to toss the shirt aside. Why they didn't put the tag on the neck of the shirt or use softer material is beyond me. Even after the dryer the tag didn't soften up. It's so annoying in fact that I hesitate wearing it to bed as I don't want to have to change how I sleep or be woken up due to it. It's really THAT itchy and abrasive. I just find it so odd that LL Bean would make pajamas that you really can't wash and with a tag that's insanely rough and strangely placed to irritate you in the middle of the night. I don't care if it's made in China. But I'd happily pay $10 more for better quality. Overall disappointing.

If your a giant, it will fit you. I like my pajamas to be loose, but they are way too loose. Plus the length is way out of proportion. I'm 5'8" and it's at least a foot longer

First, the size is off. The top fits okay but the legs are huge. Not the waist, but the legs. They must have been made for women who have giant tree trunks for legs. The other issue is lint. I washed them, and then dried. My washer was full of clumps of lint, and my dryer lint trap was full. Balls and clumps of lint everywhere. I shook them out, and then made the mistake of wearing them to bed. My sheets and pillowcases are covered in lint from these things. They're in the washer again, and the linen will have to be washed next. My advice - do NOT get these as a gift for someone you care about.

This was my first purchase of flannel pajamas from lll bean. Unfortunately the flannel shed so much, even after 3 washes that I decided to return them . I hope the type of flannel used can be changed for future styles.

Ordered pjs pants r way too large

After washing and drying these PJ's twice they continued to shed on my vacation where I did not have access to a washer and dryer. I had dark fuzz all over everything including my skin. Otherwise, the fit and warmth was good.

Pockets on the side produce lumpy seams, which are miserable for side sleepers as they produce pressure points. My suggestion would be to remove them or use a silky material that minimizes lumps, and/or attach the pockets in a way that they could be easily snipped out should one wish to remove them. Also need a little more room under the armpits for a looser fit. Please bring back the drawstring only (no lumpy elastic) for those who prefer a looser and less restrictive fit. I used to buy your men's flannel for this reason as a work around then you added elastic to theirs as well. Would you consider a gender neutral looser fitting flannel pajama set? I identify as female but could see where a little more material in the armpits and a very adjustable waist would be more welcoming to all.

The product faded quickly with repeated washes in two months using sensitive skin, fragrance free Arm & Hammer liquid laundry detergent.

I was very disappointed with how quickly the fabric pilled. Have not had issues with LLBean flannel in the past.

The material is heavier and stiffer than expected but if you are looking for something very warm this might work. One problem with the material is that it is not soft. I've used triple Downy in a cold, gentle wash cycle and a short, medium heat dryer. I hang them to dry the rest of the way. The material is almost rough and after two washings it is beginning to pill. Definitely not worth the high price.

These pajamas have very small buttons which are hard to button and come undone every night while I sleep. Because I am sick of waking up in the morning with my chest hanging out I don't wear them and they are a waste of money. And if you have older hands it is hard to get everything rebuttoned. They run big, especially the pants. Otherwise the material is soft after washing. I did not have a problem with lint or the material although I haven't worn them that much. The flannel tops sold alone and worn with sweatpants works way better and hss bigger buttons that stay put

Loved color and fabric. However, sizing was bizarre. Top fit tightly, buttons pulled (I am small-busted.) Bottoms way too big, in waist and in length. Who are these made for?!!!

Sadly this flannel fabric is why my review rating is so low. The labels on the neck are scratchy. I'm surprised this great company hasn't gone to no labels by now. The fabric is extremely scratchy on my skin. I do have sensitive skin but the uncomfortability of this fabric is so much that I cannot wear it at all. I've tried washing the pj's a couple times, exactly as the instructions list. The fabric is no softer & still highly irritating to the skin. The reason I'm not giving it 1 star is because it appears well made & looks great. The pants even have pockets, I was so excited. I'm so disappointed. I don't know if I can return the pj's since I washed them after trying to wear. I'm on a fixed income so this is a decent financial hit for me. The size matches. I'm 5'3" & like my pj's baggy/loose. They were a great fit. This is the only time I've ever given 1 of LL Bean's products a low rating. Sad & extremely disappointed.

Initially, upon arrival, I was very happy with the color and softness of the flannel pajamas and looked forward to enjoying their anticipated warmth - then, before wearing them I laundered them. Disaster, the amount of lint actually clogged my drain. After repeated washings, the amount of lint continues (although not as much) and has caused the garment to shrink. Definitly not the usual quality of LLB merchandise - I would not reorder nor would I recommend them

I have to say I do really like the pjs and bought a size medium. But when I washed (normal cycle) and wore them for the first time, the top seemed really small and the bottoms were huge! I wear a 36AA bra and my pants are a size 8. Maybe I received a lemon set - top small and bottoms large and tagged wrong?

Someone at the factory miss ordered to buttons for the top. They are too small and easily slip out of the holes. Buttons come undone during sleep and other times during wear. I have to safety pin the top so I don't flash anybody. I was disappointed as they are super soft, washed well and fit well. Please fix this LLbean!

These pj's became pilly, colors appeared to run, and looked dirty. Not great LLBean quality item.
