Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Plus Size Scotch Plaid Flannel Sherpa Lined Long Robe

Thin fabric, cheap feeling, not worth the cost at all

Sad to say that the quality has gone way way down for LL Bean clothing. I bought a bathrobe like this 2 years ago. It's getting worn out because I have worn it every day, it's comfortable and warm. This new one is made so cheaply that it's sad. I returned it immediately and still waiting for my refund...it's been over a month now. I won't buy clothing there again.

ultra thin, terrible quality, not warm, sent it back

My one daughter has had this robe for years, My other daughter wanted one last year and it wasn't available so we were excited to see it back. I was so,so disappointed when it arrived. It is lightweight and very cheaply made. The sherpa lining is definitely not as thick and cozy. I will be returning this and shopping around for a better quality robe. We buy all our kids and their spouses merchandise from L.L.Bean every year and I have noticed the quality in general is not what it was years ago. Very disappointed, My daughters boots are almost threadbare after a few years and they are not CHEAP!

The fabric is rough and unpleasant on the skin. The sherpa lining looked nasty in a short time and was impossible restore even with careful washing. Expensive, poor-quality product. LL Bean are experts in cold weather gear. Please design a better robe-soft, warm, cozy-for New England winters! Thank you.

I used to own a previous version of this robe and loved it - soft flannel, warm lining. I lived in it all winter. After it got left in a move, I was so excited to see it pop up on L.L. Bean's site again! This is unfortunately not that robe. This one has a terrible, cheap flannel that feels like every plastic-y piece of clothing you get from drop-shippers. It feels awful. The sherpa lining is similarly cheap and the sleeves aren't lined. Why on earth would you not line the sleeves? Why would I want cold arms? Honestly this robe is so bad, I'm baffled. This is simply not the quality I expect from L.L. Bean.

Sent it back. The sleeves were not lined with the Sherpa. I wanted total warmth, not partial.

The flannel is sub par. The Sherpa lining is of a cheap quality and the stitching is amateurish. I'm surprised LLBean would have something of such poor quality.

The sleeves aren't lined. Why would you like the entire robe except for the sleeves? Feels like a skimpy product for the price.

Quality of flannel was very thin as was the fleece. For a price tag of $100 bucks, I got my money back.

I purchased a similar robe 6 years ago, the material then was far superior to the flimsy material now. Poorly constructed, and the awful lining gave me the impression that it would fill my dryer with lint.. I am disappointed that LL Bean has let their standard drop so low, not worth $99. Returning.

made of nothing good, shoddy workmanship. I would not recommend it. maybe all clothing is degraded these days. sad face.

This robe was surprisingly lightweight and flimsy; when you tie it, the front flap completely covers the left sided pocket; the sleeves are unlined and very thin; not at all warm; and the sleeves are too short.

I really love the look of this. I wanted to love it. It's deceptive though. The sleeves are just thin flannel. The rolled up cuff showing the sherpa lining ends there. It's just a cuff. I thought the idea was for it to be a very warm, cozy robe. The sleeves are very cold, especially compared with the warmpth of the rest of the robe? You have to wear a sweater or sweatshirt to have your arms warm enough and that defeats the purpose of the rest of the robe. Just my 2 cents. I would have LOVED it if it truly was sherpa lined throughout the entire robe. The sleeves were too cold for me to feel cozy and warm. I was bummed. It went back. It's a cool pattern though and almost right if not for it not being fully lined.

If these type of robes had zippers more people would buy them. Zip from top and a zip on bottom You use to carry a light weight robe like that! I bought at least 3. I've been looking on your site 2 years for this or something warm and cozy similar to this. All are wrap. Do you think everyone is skinny (no larger sizes) and wraps will hold if you don't tie them tight? They just fall open! No Luck!

Not the quality you expect from LL Bean. This is a lined robe. It looks pretty but if you expect to stay warm, take it with you on a south seas vacation. If you hold it up to the light, it shines right through. The flannel lining is as thick as a kleenex and the sherpa lining makes it feel soft but so thin its hardly there. This is not a great item for northern climate or a cool morning at the cabin.

Unexpectedly disappointing. This robe is very thin and feels cheap. I have other Scotch plaid items and am unsure if the fabric here is the same as that used for shirts and bedding. Colors are the same, but the fabric feels thinner and quality feels far lower. The fleece is especially disappointing. It is not Sherpa fleece which is typically made to resemble real sheep's fleece, notably low pile and tight structure (as on the men's rugby robe which is amazing). The material used here has a long, floppy pile and is very thin and sparse (like low pixel count compared to high pixels). It looks and feels nothing like real sheep's fleece as sherpa fleece should. I can't comment on size because I didn't get that far. The poor quality was immediately evident and I put the robe back in the bag to return without trying it on.
