Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Plus Size Quilted Sweatshirt 1/4 Zip Pullover Long Sleeve

Fit well, more of a muddy peach than a pink, so sent it back

Cute but long really nice but longer than what I like. Color was beautiful and really made well

I am super disappointed in what I received as far as quality compared to years past. I had an older version of this item in a different color that unfortunately had started to fade. I exchanged it for a lighter color and the new one is much thinner material. It is advertised as a sweatshirt, however in order to keep warm, I would need to layer under the new one. When I reached out to customer service, they informed me that their vendors have changed and they don't even make the items themselves, they are outsourced like everything else these days, I guess. Just disappointing and unfortunate and because they required me to return the original, they informed me after the fact that I cannot even get that one back if I wanted. Not worth the high price tag.

The top of the opening stands up too high for me - when zipper is open. I usually zip it completely closed, but only when out in cold weather. Indoor I usually like to have it partially unzipped.

I received another one of these as a gift last month after saying how much I liked the one I bought myself a couple years ago. It fits well and is flattering. The fabric is soft, but seems much thinner/cheaper than my older one and makes me wonder how well it will hold up. The website says this is 80/20 cotton/poly, but the tag on the new sweater says 76/24 cotton/poly body and 51/49 cotton/poly for the sleeves. All in all, it's a nice sweater, but the fabric quality change is very disappointing, especially since it doesn't match the description.

I really like this but you have to win the lottery to get one that isn't wonky. I have ordered several but only ended up keeping one the others were seen wonky. One had an extra wide bottom band, another had a crooked zipper, and another had an uneven hem. Ugh! Get it together Ll bean! I would pay this high price if I could get one that was sewn properly

The material is quite stiff and does not look like it will last long with regular laundering. It also had somewhat of a narrower fit. I purchased my regular LL Bean shirt size (XS) which usually is on the looser side. With this sweater, it was quite well fitting to begin with. So, there might be less room if one desires to have an additional layer underneath.

I really like this quarter zip, it's super cozy and classy looking, but after only one wash, it has two small tears in the fabric. I was going to buy a second in a different color, but I won't after seeing how delicate the fabric on this is. Too bad because it took me a while to decide to buy the first and I was really excited about it.

It's very nice. Good thickness of fabric. Kind of long. I did not like the wide band of trim at the bottom. It's loose n this hangs like a tunic with that wide band. I would have preferred a straight hem.

Liked fabric, color and style except that it was too straight for "slightly fitted" for me.

Nice looking sweatshirt for casual wear. However pills already and runs large.

Nice enough, and fairly comfortable, but overpriced. I can't recommend this item.

I order lots of clothing from LL Bean. I always order the same size no problem. This item runs really small. I don't like that I have to pay to exchange it.

I am in between. The medium fits great in the width and length, but the shoulders and armpits are cut too tight. The large shoulders fit great, but the rest is a balloon. If I wanted to, I would buy the large and tailor the rest to fit, but returning seemed the easier option. Will try another style.

Very heavy and yet not as warm as I was hoping Color and fit are great

3 X is too snug. Very well made and pretty. If you are 2 X you should buy the 3X

I really like the style of this quilted pullover. However, the fit is off on this item. I usually wear an XL I could hardly get the item on. It was so tight. I returned the XL pullover, and I ordered a 1X and 2X. The 1X felt tight across the shoulder and back area, The 2X swallowed me and the cuffs fell at my fingertips. Other reviewers gave this pullover glowing reviews. I really wanted to do the same but unfortunately the item fell short of five stars for me

Size up, it is nice quality but the size is smaller than it should be.

Don't k know why they added gray to the lilac color. Makes it dull.

The pullover was well made and I would have kept it if had fit. I ordered a large and it was too big, the arms were very long, longer than my fingers and the body was also too long but not too full. I considered reordering a medium but I was afraid that would be too tight across my chest and hips. It just wasn't the right shape for my body type.

I have this pullover in several other colors. It is a great top. I liked the green color, which is new this year, and decided to buy one more to add to my collection. Everything is great except the color, which is a dull forest green rather than the crisp green shown. It's still a great top, just a disappointing color.

I love these but.... so they are super comfortable and classy looking with a pair of jeans. I own two of them.....the problem is after a couple washes the color is just gone. As much as I'd love another color at this price NO WAY!!

I own two of these from a few years ago and they are my absolute favorite. I have been trying to buy more for a year, but my desired color/size were out of stock and then for months the item was entirely missing from the website. I was so excited when it showed up in the latest print catalog and immediately ordered two. I just received them and am so bummed. Not only is the cut now much wider and longer, but the material is much thinner. I went ahead and took the risk of washing/drying one hoping it would shrink and thicken up, but that didn't happen. This one looks frumpy and cheaper than previous versions, unfortunately. I'm considering returning the unwashed one, but trying to decide if paying return shipping is worth it. I'm so irritated.

I love this quilted sweatshirt. I have had another for a couple of years and wanted a second one because they do take extra drying time. I allow mine to hang to finish drying when the rest of the load is finished. Perfect for indoors or out in wintery California. I can keep house cooler. The big front pocket is great for warming both hands, extra facial tissues, and carrying a kitchen timer.

Needs to be longer. A little small for a plus size item.
