Amazon’s top-rated puffer is down to $27

Dropping temperatures, wind chill, increased rainfall and snow are starting to make even getting dressed a bit confusing. If you want something less bulky than a giant down jacket, we’ve got plenty: you can get the Amazon Essentials Quilted Jacket for as little as $27, down to $50 – that’s 45% off!

This top notch jacket may look familiar to you. The fitted coat has been compared to Patagonia’s Down Sweater or LL Bean’s Primaloft Packaway Jacket, two iconic but more expensive options famous for intermediate weather conditions. Take it from this buyer: “All it’s missing is a Patagonia tag. Very nice inexpensive warm jacket. I can wear it hiking and in not too cold climates. But I also wore it in very cold weather. Very versatile.”

The Amazon Essentials Packable Quilted Jacket is much more affordable but just as satisfying. It’s a lightweight yet warm outer layer that’s suitable for many climates and “perfect for unpredictable weather,” as one of 10,000 five-star fans put it. The insulated coat is warm and snug but light as a feather, and it’s even waterproof, so getting caught in a sudden shower is no big deal, especially since it comes with a built-in hood.

“I love this jacket so much! There’s no need to spend more on other “brand name” jackets, wrote one five-star reviewer. “This jacket has everything you would want in a jacket: warm, well fitted and most important of all… it fits you well!”

Another reviewer who complained about “non-stop rain this Tennessee winter” claims the beloved Amazon Essentials coat has been mistaken for a similar – but more expensive (and hoodless!) – option – the Eddie Bauer Jacket Women’s Cirrus Lite Down.

“Everyone thinks it’s Eddie Bauer but the price is so much more reasonable,” the fan says. “I have several winter jackets but none that are both light and warm with a hood.”

The Amazon Essentials Packable Quilted Jacket has contoured seams so it lies flat against your body without bulk, not only blocking the wind but preventing it from entering the interior; elastic cuffs also help. The coat zips up to the chin and even has zipped pockets to keep your phone, wallet or a pair of gloves safe and dry.

Right now, it’s available in 14 colors and patterns, including black, charcoal, olive, even camo, and bright yellow.

The Amazon Essentials Packable Down Jacket is designed to fit easily into a tote bag, so you can take it with you in case you get cold. It’s so light you’ll barely notice you’re wearing it, and it’s versatile enough to be a standalone jacket or even an extra layer.

“This coat is so incredibly warm I’ve worn it while walking in sub-freezing temps and didn’t feel a bit uncomfortable,” wrote one happy shopper in a colder climate. “Add it to a good pair of leggings under your pants, a good pair of snow boots and something to cover your nose/face and you’re good to go.”

“This is my go-to jacket for almost any weather. I take it as a backpack because it’s light and has a little stuff sack,” another buyer wrote. “It’s light enough for balmy days and you can layer it for cooler temperatures.”

A budget conscious client cut to the chase. “Forget overpriced puffer jackets!” the shopper said, adding that the Amazon Essentials quilted jacket “fits like a glove and gets lots of compliments!”
