“Quality glove. Fingers could be a little longer in the large size I bought. Battery life is a little short. I need it on high for bad circulation. Otherwise very pleased.”

“These are not Goretex, so your hands may get sweaty on the way up a hill if you're working hard, so after a short stop for a snack,etc. you may then find them difficult to get back on as the thermal lining stays damp. Go at least 1 size up, I have normal size hands for a bloke my build -medium/large- , but XL are a snug fit”

“Very comfortable, the heating control is practical and easy to use. The closure on the gauntlet is easy to use when gloved/one handed. Warm and waterproof. One drawback is that even in XL the finger and thumb length are slightly short, ok for hill walking but not ok for cycling or using an ice axe. Please, please make a double XL for my husband”

“No response to email sent below before I posted this review... Before I respond to below I have now had 2 orders (from Sealskinz and on the whole I am happy but…. To give you a bit of back ground, I had a heat attack in July and as a result I have developed Raynaud's disease (which causes smaller arteries that supply blood flow to the skin to narrow in response to cold. The affected body parts, usually fingers and toes, might turn white or blue and feel cold and numb until circulation improves, usually when you get warm). I live in Ireland where it’s almost always raining and gets quite cold. So the gloves I ordered would be critical in assisting in dealing with cold fingers. I found the Waterproof Cold Weather Glove (with Fusion) to be fantastic for both rain and cold, but when the temperature when below 4 degrees C my fingers took a bit of strain. As a result of this I then took advantage of the Black Friday sale and ordered the Waterproof Heated Gauntlet to take of when the temperature dropped below 4 degrees C. We had very cold weather here yesterday so took advantage and went for a walk up a hillside near to where I live. I played with the 3 different settings and found the middle setting was perfect for keeping the fingers toastie. One issue however was that on my right hand the index and baby finger received no heat at all -> similarly on the left hand but only the index finger received no heat. I am not sure how the heat gets down to the fingers (by coil I guess) but do have the above issue that would stop me from recommending this glove. To be clear I am happy with the gloves as this ‘protection’ is better than no protection at all. The recommendation would be a 10 if we can resolve the three fingers not getting the heat.”

“gauntlet not bad at the moment, i used them at -12 degrees. After 3-4 hours outside my hand was a bit cold so i have to used the heating system. The thing i dont like is that the thumb does not heat up to the tip of the finger, so the tip of my thumb remains quite cold. I didn't test it with rain or big snow. I sweat a lot on my hands so after a long time outside my hands get a little wet inside the gloves. In general not that bad.”
