Sparrow’s Mitten review
These Neberon heated mittens fit smaller than expected. If you go with Neberon, go up a size.
Mittens vs Gloves
Although I’m generally a proponent of mittens, I regret not getting gloves. My rational for mittens was that they would be warmer when the battery is off. While I was still learning how often I need to charge them, and my battery ran out on a 12 degree day. They weren’t warm. My size large mittens are smaller than I expected, and that makes it harder to grip a coupon. Since conserving warmth isn’t essential, go with gloves.

DeadDrop’s Glove Review
“These gloves are pretty good. They don’t wick sweat away like they say they do. They are a little tight.”
Sparrow’s note: the Neberon gloves are described as “work gloves” and do indeed have a durable construction and appropriate hand padding for hard work. No gloves last forever, but these seem well built and ready for real life.

There is more to life than keeping your hands warm. Do you really need to be comfortable all the time? Is there something more important you could do with $50-$100? But, if you’re looking for a luxury gift item, heated gloves are a lot of fun.
