I live in North Dakota where weather can easily be -20 or -25 F. Some of the reviews talk about how warm this jacket is. Any from my temp area?

I live in north central Florida and feel at times that it isn't as warm as I'd like it to be...

I live in the midwest and have worn this coat into temps down to -10, -25 with the wind chill. Without wind, keeping lightly active (walking my dogs), wearing layers beneath it, and staying out of the direct wind, I have been kept comfortably warm. If you are more active (skiing or snowshoeing) you should stay quite warm. The jacket does not block wind very well, so if you are in windy conditions I do not think it would be enough unless you wore some sort of windbreaker over it, but I'm not sure about trying to fit it under something else. I have worn a thick wool sweater under it without any problems.

Yeah I have this out in temps in the low 20's with a good ole Kansas north wind so it was colder than that with the wind chill figured in.

I was concerned about that as well, living in South Dakota. But after using it for 2 years now, we found that the unit rarely drops more than 2 degrees during a 30-45 minute use.We do use it with the cover flipped folded over in the coldest weather, so it is only partially exposed. I find that over 30 minutes, 104 is too hot anyway.

So far I haven't had an issue with the cold. I like in northern North Dakota and it's worked great so far. Battery life is a bit shorter but I get the rechargeable batteries

I have no problems with that, I live in the mtns of western nc, so depending on youre house temp would have alot to do with that. However I dont think you will have any problems with keeping cool as long as youre not using a flannel just a regular sheet. Hope this will help you out. JT Asheville NC.

I'd say the coat is perfect for those temps. It will keep you warm without being too hot. I'd use a good, breathable under layer too.

I use this jacket in anything from 20-60 temps. I just add more layers underneath as necessary. For very cold rides, I use a couple of extra layers around my core (a-shirt, then a t-shirt) with a long-sleeve base layer and a long-sleeve fleece. The trick is to do the layering in a way that doesn't add too much bulk - especially in the arms. Otherwise, you'd need to buy a size up and then it'd be too flappy when you're using it in 60 weather. If money were no object, I'd buy a specialty jacket for really cold weather, but I can make this one work pretty well as long as I'm riding hard enough to generate some warmth. I wear a size medium in most of my shirts (5'8" 140lbs) and I'm happy that I bought a size small in this jacket. Fits close with just enough room for a thin fleece layer underneath. It's probably not 100% windproof (and definitely not waterproof) but it makes a good outer layer and cuts most of the wind.

No way. It's more for fall and mild winter days. Perhaps 20 above with slight breeze.

I love this jacket! I wear it in Houston, TX and in NYC. When temperatures are in the 40s it is great! I also bought the Marmot waterproof rain jacket, and I use it for a mid layer. When combined it is a good ski option for spring skiing.

5+ is the survival rating. I've been down to about 20 degrees with a base layer and wool hat and been just fine. Bet I would have been ok at 10 degrees.

My husband uses it as a summer jacket. We live in the desert. It gets over 100 F

We live in Nebraska and it gets very cold here, never have had any issues with it at all.

I don't know exactly what temp is too warm but most of the days I've worn it started out below freezing and I was riding my ATV to my fishing spot on the lake but by mid day it was probably in mid 30s and I took the coat part off but put it on frequently when the sun went behind the clouds and/or it got windy. I do tend to have a higher tolerance to the cold than the average person and this suit might be a little too much on many occasions but my way of thinking is that it's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.

I live in the Pacific Northwest... not too cold, but LOTS of rain. It is made out of water repellent canvas (not rubber)and quilted material underneath, so unlike the former respondent... I'd say, "Yes, it IS breathable", or it'd be WAY to warm to wear in our mild winters. I like this coat, and bought a second one so the first one can dry out on rainy days.

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.

We love ours. It heats the area well. We keep it between 1&2 most of the time keeping our heat at about 70 degrees. We love in northern Maine where temps have been -20 and up to -40 on a pretty regular basis and it has been extremely reliable. I haven't let the temperature get down to 45 to test that theory.
