Pros & Cons
Pros
The fit is perfect! The waist sinch is super flattering! Usually wear size 18/20, and got this in the xxl.
The hood is ample and the coat is long enough to keep my bum dry. Fits great with room under for cold weather layering. Only thing it's missing is a visor, so i just wear a baseball hat if i'm out in the rain. No vents, yet not clammy.
It appears water resistant, probably not for a full out rainstorm. It is not a raincoat, but we were caught in a drizzle/fog and it was fine for those conditions. Good value for a lightweight jacket.
Cons
This jacket is only moderately better than nothing. Not water proof and really cheap quality of fabric. Also it's like wearing a garbage bag when it's hot+rainy.
To call this jacket a rain jacket is very deceptive. I was tricked. Not even close. Contemplated returning it.
The bottom piece below the scrunch by the waist is wayyyyy too poofy.

Also keep in mind that this fabric is not breathable so it will trap in your body heat which can be good or bad depending on the weather
