The Oodie

Not sure if this is the correct section as it's not very stylish Grin. Is The Oodie worth the money at 2for £84? I'm hoping if it's decent I won't have to have the heating on as much.

They are super super warm. They wash well too.

I just got a comfy from amazon as I had amazon vouchers to use up. It still being August I haven't worn it, but it puffed right up and the hood fitted nicely. The arms were far too bulky, but I will be able to get a sweater on underneath. I am happy with my purchase. I suspect everyone might be getting one for early christmas presents.

The Kuddly is cheaper - DH got one. I don't think it's quite as nice quality as the Oodie though when they're side by side or to wear. But a good more budget option although I can't remember the cost now, just that it was cheaper.

Cantanka · 31/08/2022 18:30

I have one and love it but at the time there didn’t seem to be quite as many cheaper alternatives on the market. The Oodie is great but I don’t think it’s necessarily that much better than some better value ones which are now commonly available. I wouldn’t pay the extra if buying another one now.

Intellectualmalaise · 31/08/2022 18:33

Do they really keep you warm though? I always find that I’m better off with layers but will give these a try if they’re worth it.

TheOnlyBeeInYourBonnet · 31/08/2022 18:33

Yes, worth it. I live in mine in winter and it dramatically reduces the need for heating.

devildeepbluesea · 31/08/2022 18:34

My Kuddlys arrived this afternoon, one each for DD and me. Bit cheaper and great reviews.

SoupDragon · 31/08/2022 18:36

I don't think they are worth the money at all. The "fluffy" lining of DD's has gone all horrible just like the cheap copy she had the year before.

My Primark one is just as warm.

DigitalGhost · 31/08/2022 18:40

Kuddlys are far better quality and were the same price until recently

NorthernPud · 31/08/2022 18:41

I got a cheap version for £20 from Amazon. It is amazing. We had to turn the heating down when we wore ours last winter.

abovedecknotbelow · 31/08/2022 18:42

My primark one is just as good although not quite as long. I think they're £20.

MadMadMadamMim · 31/08/2022 18:45

Like others, I got a cheap £20 one from Amazon that I love. It's ankle length! I'm thinking of buying the rest of the family one and turning the heating off this winter...

lurker2003 · 31/08/2022 18:46

I paid £54? for mine and I lived in it during winter, so comfy and washes really well too! There’s cheaper alternatives available but I don’t regret buying mine.

NorthernPud · 31/08/2022 18:48

I'm actually thinking of ordering us all a second one each as predicting there will be high demand for them when the weather turns colder.

Bestcatmum · 31/08/2022 18:49

I get £20 ones off amazon which are brilliant.the oodie is vastly operated.

WhatIsThisPlease · 31/08/2022 18:50

They're on offer at the moment on The Oodie website. They're lovely, really really warm. Think they're £49

Forpoxsake · 31/08/2022 18:52

Does anyone have a link (or just a screenshot) for the Amazon ones?

NorthernPud · 31/08/2022 18:53

I don't know how to do a screenshot but search for Oversize Teddy Sherpa

MissPinkCakeyBun · 31/08/2022 18:56

We have this brand throughout the family. Got them as gifts last winter From DH to my DFL and DDs they have lasted well and are very affordable

Thank you 😊

MadMadMadamMim · 31/08/2022 19:03

@Forpoxsake Mine from Amazon was a Lushforest oversized hoodie - one size plus tall - which came to my ankles!

They are £38.99 and brilliant - sorry I can't link cos I can't work out how to not link to my logged in Amazon account!

StridTheKiller · 31/08/2022 19:05

Kuddlys are much better quality.

Arou · 31/08/2022 19:10

For those who own both Oodie’s and Kuddly’s which is your favourite?! I’ve also been eyeing these and am torn between the two of them

UncomfortableSofa · 31/08/2022 19:11

We have the Sienna ones from Amazon. Amazing and so snuggly.
