I wore this jacket for the past week in Steamboat. The Temps ranged from the single digits to the low 30's and I was NEVER cold in it. I am 5'10" ,180lbs with a 42" chest. The Medium fit great if a bit snug under the arms. I wore it over just a heavy thermal and bibs and was warmer than I needed to be most of the time. This jacket shrugged off everything I threw at it, including snowballing myself more than once on a PowderCat day. It kept me dry and warm through all of it.
Downsides to this jacket are minimal. There is no 'real' media pocket and none of the interior pockets are waterproof. It also lacks snowshields in the pit vents.
The upsides far outweigh the down sides and I would call it a good buy
