Lightweight, self-storing jacket. Good as a "just in case" piece. Insufficient for sustained heavy rain.

Great Lightweight Option!
Great lightweight option, crazy how lightweight it is, but it did wet out within the first three times of wearing it. But nothing a little nik wax didn't fix!

Wind Breaker Or For Summer Rain. Not Waterproof.
I've had this jacket for a few years and it does exactly what I expected it to - I essentially use it as a wind breaker, for summer rain jacket, or as a second layer under my Aspire because it has elastic wrists and I always manage to get water up my sleeves. I would never pay full price for it, but because I got it discounted, it was totally a worthwhile investment for me. It's light and rolls up really well.

Not Great Waterproofing
I owned this jacket for a year and find it is not nearly as waterproof as advertised! On a recent biking trip, I got soaked through. In general it was an ok windbreaker, but anything beyond a light drizzle lead to soaking through. I think for a light jacket it's fine, I've kept using it for wind and when light rain is possible, especially since it packs small. But for future trips where heavy rain is expected, I'll have to find something better.

Wets Through Instantly, Do Not Buy
Really disappointed in this jacket despite good reviews from external sites. From the moment I got it, it was not waterproof for even a slight drizzle. It wets through instantly. I tried washing it and re-treating it per OR's instructions, but it's still awful. Maybe ok as a windbreaker, but not worth that for the price. Really disappointing.
