Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Plus Size Wicked Plush Robe

If you are looking for a robe that is truly warm, this one isn't for you. The only sherpa-lined portion is the hood (which makes it so heavy so that it pulls the top portion away from the shoulders, exposing them to the cold) and the cuffs. None of the rest of the robe is lined. It is more like you are wearing one of those fleece throws. There is not hing to close the robe at the throat to prevent the robe from opening up. I really regret this purchase. Not worth the money.

Robe is wicked heavy! I likely erred by purchasing a size too large. But, such a good sale; so will keep for those extra-cold winter days. Other than the weight's discomfort, it is classic wonderful Bean - top notch style & general comfort.

Lint is terrible, esp. in turquoise color. Bits of it are on everything I own, and anything that goes in the wash with it gets covered. Hood and sleeves won't stay cream-colored... If you're picky about your wardrobe and also want to be able to throw this in the wash with towels, pajamas, or similar, consider if it's worth it.

Wish I hadn't bought it knowing how badly it sheds even after several washings.

Sadly, this robe did not live up to expectations. It is not as warm as my 10-year-old LL Bean fleece robe. This robe is fairly thin and light compared. The fact that the sherpa is only on the hood and trim seems like they value appearance over functionality. This would be a GREAT robe if the sherpa was throughout the whole robe. The hood is pointless, and unneeded. I suggest putting effort into the warmth of the robe rather than "cute" superficial details. I am returning this and keeping a fully sherpa lined flannel robe from a competitor at a country store in Vermont. I'm aware that LL Bean offers a sherpa lined flannel, but the sherpa is not throughout the interior of that robe either. Honestly, these products are disappointing in their lack of genuine quality.

Happy with this product but extremely disappointed in the monogram. It was much smaller than expected and not legible at all. The monogram does not show through the plush fabric. Very disappointed. Buy the product but skip the monogram.

I have never had an item from llb that was subpar material.

This robe is extremely soft but as soon as you put it in the dryer it sheds in gobs and does not stop. Very poor quality.

Love the robe but after 1 wash it came out with lots of pulls and the white part on the hood and wrists came out with pilling and it makes the white part look dirty and ratty. I'm so surprised that LL Bean would allow this to happen!!! It was 100.00 too so unhappy

I really wanted to love this robe because I really wanted a cozy fleece robe. But as some other reviewers have said, this one is disappointing because it's difficult to wash/dry, pills, fits awkwardly by and is overall poor in quality. Not at all what I expected from L.L. Bean. I'm still deciding on whether to return it or just settle for it since I got it "free" with Bean Bucks.

I bought a super warm Wicked Plush Robe about 4 years ago. After many washings, it was time to replace that robe. Sadly, when I received my new Wicked Plush Robe in 2024, I immediately noticed that the fabric was not nearly as dense.The 2024 robe was not nearly as toasty. I will keep the robe for shoulder season wear, but will drag my ragged older Wicked Plush Robe out for winter use. What is happening to L L Bean quality??

The packaging was none. It look like they just took the item and threw it in a bag. It came to me wrinkled. LL Bean should be ashamed of themselves. For the amount of money we pay this is a disgrace. I will go else where to buy my products.

Immediately piled and lost softness after following the washing directions carefully on first wash.

The robe I ordered as new was a robe that had been returned. Packaging turned apart and taped. Missing tags.

Runs large. I don't suggest getting it monogrammed as the monogram is VERY small and they placed it under the lapel so you can't even see it. Soft, but returning.

I thought it would be the thickest robe ever. Would want it heavier.

I want to like this robe. My last robe had lasted my years! My husband and I ordered these for each other for Valentine's Day with monogrammed initials. I'm a daily robe wearer and there are already multiple strings coming out of it; the quality seems lacking. The monogram isn't clean on either of our robes. Unfortunately not worth the money in my opinion.

Quality greatly diminished. Compared to Robe from 2 years ago, much LESS PLUSH; thinner and even a bit shy on length. Price unchanged.

It seems very warm and soft. I had to return it because it was too shapeless for my wife. It also arrived without a belt.

There was a sticky label right across the fabric that left glue residue in fabric , didn't think I needed to open bag and inspect for damage for the price payed for item.

Robe has seam in shoulder open. The person who received gift will return.

wasn't what I expected. pretty thin actually, thought it would have been heavier/thicker more warmth. Only tried it on did not wear it or even take the tag off. It is on it's way back to you now.

Looks as if it SHOULD be warm enough. But it's not. I've had warmer robes. Should of stuck with what I had previously from my other favorite store. Doesn't keep the warm in, doesn't really hug the body to get instant warmth. I have to make sure it's layered because by itself, it's just another robe. Certainly not 'wicked' warm

This was advertised as "plush" - it really is flimsy- I put it on and it just hung- not a cozy robe for winter -and not up to Bean's standard!

Returned it immediately. The robe is too heavy and in no way flattering. Other reviewers were correct about the poor quality of the fabric. Seems like it shouldn't be too difficult to design a cozy, practical, well made robe which doesn't make you look like a bed. Now that you have done a great job of being inclusive with the diversity of your models, perhaps it's time to include some older designers who are familiar with real people.
