is it WARM? the mornings here in nyc this winter are frigid, like six degrees, if this is not the warmest, can someone recommend the really warm one?

In that case I don't recommend getting this one cause it is a lil thin. I live in texas so it doesn't get no where near as cold as it does there in nyc. I seen one that was a fleece fabric that my buddy bought and it looks a lot warmer than the one I bought. He also bought it off Amazon but I'm sorry I can't remember exactly what he said the name of it was. It has strings that come out from the mouth piece to tighten down on your face and it looks very similar to the one I bought. Not sure if that helps any but it's the only way I can really explain what it looks like.

In the case of this head gear, the vast majority of your head is covered with the exception of your eyes. It's all a matter of not keeping the cold out, but keeping your body heat in and this product does just that. This is the only balaclava I've ever owned, and I'm satisfied having worn it during snowstorms and wind chills in the teens but not feeling cold. Perhaps you should ask others about lower temperatures as Pete said because I haven't tried it during single digit weather as you've described it. We don't often get that cold in Maryland, but we do have our moments. Final point, the fact that you can adjust it to wear the head sock multiple ways makes it highly versatile for all cold-weather needs.

I can't say how it fairs in six degree weather, but it is more than warm enough for bicycling on twenty degree nights.

I made the mistake of ordering L/XL it's too big , the face part is wind proof and has a nice mesh over your nose and mouth ( easy to breathe) the rest is not wind proof but warm . I should have ordered the S/Med one . I'll keep this one and modify it . The neck part is nice and long keeps the cold out nicely.

This will take the edge off and can cover your face but you may want some eye coverage (if it's windy or you ride a bicycle) and a hood to go over for extra warmth.

Sorry, I have not re-heated this while it was still warm. We live in southern Arizona where extreme cold all day is not an issue. It gets quite cold in the early morning but warms up by an extra 30 - 40 degrees as the day goes on.

Okay, I answered this morning with "warm." But then I got to thinking about it. I have the humidifier mounted on the dash in front of the heating vent, so it feels warm. I went outside and checked. It is actually a cool mist. So sorry. Hope you didn't order something you didn't want because of what I said.

If its actually too hot to touch then thats bad, but if its warm I think thats normal. I tested mine by turning it up to 6 for a few minutes and thats all it took to get it warm. I supposed if I left it for hours at 6 it would feel quite warm. I don't think its a big deal.

The cool setting is not cool. It is warm. Pretty comfortable. The high setting is pretty hot.

Yes, it is definitely warm. I have never had a problem. They do wear out after 9 mo to a year. They get kind of funky and my husband thinks they could be a fire hazard when old. I don't think so but replace to keep him happy. I swear by these to keep low stress w my feisty 3!

Mine has been warm ever since I got it. I've been using it for months now without a problem. It's sitting on a shelf in the garage and I propped it up with an extra nut that I had in my toolbox to make sure there was some airflow.It's just noticeably warm, not hot. I can keep my hand on it. So far, so good.

Hi Alan,I don't know. We never have cold weather here. It works fine in our shop, which seldom gets below 60 degrees.

We live in Denver and turn our thermostat down to 62 degrees at night. This was WAY too warm for that, so we tried 59 degrees. That was better, but still too warm. I wish this comforter came in a light warmth - it's a really, really nice one, just too warm for us.

Hi, We live in Chicago and it has been working just fine in the cold weather. No Problems! We have already had 10 degrees and its perfect. Its really worth the money.

How much is a personal reaction I do not know, but mine is warm on the highest setting... not really hot hot...but in the cabin where used, the temp is about 60...and I do use a sleeping bag as well so that may make a difference ( the bag is used as a banket)

Well, a lot of them. i had mine go out (as ecotemp said) and i don't think it got below 38f. if you do have a problem with yours im sure they will say it's because you let it freeze. thats what all their complaints are about it seems. and their customer service is non existent, they just said it was all my fault then (get this) he hung up on me. i never raised my voice (but he did) i tried to call back and they would not pick up my call. i will never even think about using them again. good luck!

Outside is warm, inside I am not really sure. By now, I am fine with this product, I use it for one year and on daily basis.

It doesn't get cold, that is for sure. It is pretty warm, I would say, provided one has blankets and the like.

It does,....... sometimes too warm! I guess you just need to know your way..... Every 1 is different

I didn't use it in winter, because I bought it February, but I can say, that it is very warm, I used it in rainy, windy and cold weather. was around 58 degree. And a baby was warmer always. But below 58 degree didn't yet used. Will try it next winter.

I haven't compared numbers but I can say my freezing cold basement has been warm this year. It's the only time I have been able to get my basement warm. Since we have extra high ceilings, and central heat that comes through the ceiling, it's very difficult to heat our basement at all. I am finally warm.
