Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Petite Quilted Full Zip Sweatshirt

Very comfortable, and nice looking sweatshirt jacket. May buy another one in a different color.

nice material, looks like it might get dirty easily. I'll find out.

Love the color and pattern. Normally I wear a small regular but it was too big and too long. I got a replacement (had shipping fee subtracted) extra small petite which looks and feels great. It is a lightweight sweatshirt. So far it is a little stiff but I have not washed it. Getting compliments.

This jacket is an eleveated design for a sweatshit. I got ps in blue and it fits relaxed for an athlectic body (for reference 118 lbs). Everything was great and then there was the but part. My first order was somtime in the last summer, so I didn't wear it until in the winter. Strangely, a couple of holes developed after my first wearing and first wash. So, I sent the jacket back for an exchange (the same color) and LLBean graceciously sent me back a new jacket. And deja vu. The replacement had the same hole problem. I was baffled becasue that was the only apparel in my closet that I had an issue and didn't think it was a moth problem. After the first replacement, I decided to just return for a refund instead of giving another shot in a different color. Thus, a star is deducted. Overall, it was one of my favorite jacket and would still recommend it.

Warm zip up. Bit too big. Very much an "old lady" style.

I have been looking for something soft and warm with a full zipper for quite a while, as I keep my house cool.This fills the bill. The zipper, which is important for easy adjustment of temperature, works but is difficult to get started because the sliding piece doesn't line up exactly with the end piece on that side. I have to hold the sliding piece in place at just the right orientation. I hate returning things, and for all I know this may be a typical glitch (even though it's a YKK zipper) so unless it gets worse I will just work with it. The quilted pattern is attractive, and indeed seems entirely for appearance, because there is not a middle layer of insulation to be held in place. So the quilting doesn't add stiffness or body as it would if it were done over insulation. I like it, and am just describing for the sake of information. Warm enough for an indoor or outdoor light layer in the 50-64 degree range. And did I say, fleecy and soft inside? I like the color (Turqouise) which I'd call a Teal on the green side, and it is quite true to how the picture appears on my laptop. The fit is good (Reg. XL which maybe used to be a size 18).

Collar a little stiff and high on my short neck Lots of beautiful colors to pick from. Perfect for spring, fall weather. Cozy. Would buy again, for sure.

Love this just wish the sleeves were not so tight. Short sleeve top under it is best the long sleeve top get bound up.

This was a Christmas present for my wife. She already had this sweatshirt in a different color and has worn it a great deal. The appearance and fit are excellent. My only complaint is that it's rather expensive for a sweatshirt.

This is a nice full zip sweatshirt. The tall has long enough sleeves and long cuffs that cover my wrist, unlike the regular size. I wish more shirts were tall sizes. All items should be sold in all sizes.

Love this! I do have one wish, though, that LL Bean would make women's tops, sweaters, and jackets that were "fitted", not just "slightly fitted" for a more flattering, less boxy look. The quality is always outstanding, just need to give those of us with curves a chance to show them off!

A bit snug in the shoulders and arms, but it stretches.

Nice fabric & looks good on & DIDN'T have a hood/haven't washed it yet so ...

I like it very much but am not in love with the hem. It flares out on the sides.

Soft and warm with generous fit. Navy blue is rather muted.

Excellent fit and look. Don't wear black pants first time around wearing it though. Lots of pink fuzzles stuck to the black jeans.

This is a great jacket, but it did not fit well. The bottom was a bit wide, and I am not slim.

items will be Christmas gifts so a comment before that will not be complete

The color is beautiful. Almost perfect but a little long

I'd call this more of a jacket than a sweatshirt. That's how nice it is. The deep admiral blue color is very rich looking. If I could make one improvement, it would be to add zipper closures to the pockets. I think that would be appropriate at this price point. That is my reason for giving this a four instead of a five.

I wanted something warmer than my Ultrasoft Sweat jacket but not as heavy as a fleece. This is about as warm as my lighter weight fleece, but lighter in the arms where there is no quilting. It is nice looking and there is a nice range of colors. The fabric is not as soft as the Ultrasoft jacket, but like that jacket, had minimal shrinking after washing. While this fit is considered "slightly fitted" vs. "relaxed fit" in the Ultrasoft jacket, I ended up getting the same size.

Very nice but overpriced for what it is. Nothing really special

The quilted front is attractive and the lavender cardigan is great, but I returned it because the zipper failed. It is most comfortable when zipped as the edges at the top are stiff when the cardigan is unzipped.

This sweatshirt is a great jacket for when the weather is cool. I like the fact that it fits close to the body so warmth cannot escape. However, the sleeves also fit closely, so it's advisable not to wear a top with thick sleeves that will bunch up under the jacket.

The fabric is soft and warm without being bulky. Sleeves are quite long, but otherwise it's pretty true to size. Overall very nice quality but at this price point I thought it would have interior pockets and/or a zipper on exterior pockets, but has neither.
