Instant warmth when you need it
This jacket is very warm and comfortable with all the attention to detail I expect from Mountain Hardwear.
The bottlewarmer pockets and zipped inside pocket are very useful.
It packs into a small volume in your pack and will be used for back country ski touring on frigid days.

Instant warmth
I couldn't believe how warm this jacket is for so little weight. Chilly winds don't phase it at all. The hood is large enough to cover my favorite ball cap. The zipper is on the small size, but the heavy 2 way zip I'm used to wouldn't allow you to pack this large puffer into it's own pocket. It fit me fine with a mid weight base and light mid layer polar fleece. 6'2" 268 lbs. (60 lbs over weight)

Phantom Hooded Down Jacket
I live in New Hampshire where winter does happen, and was looking for a hooded down jacket that had sufficient loft to provide more warmth than the down jacket (hoodless) I often wear, but which requires another layer to get that warmth. The Phantom clearly had the loft and the warmth. I wore it every day as a 'walking around' jacket after my ski days on a recent trip to Banff, where it was definitely COLD. Now for the howevers: as other reviewers have noted, the zipper was very difficult to start, often taking repeated attempts, and in pulling the zipper up, once started, it was much less smooth than other zippered garments I own. A jacket of this quality and expense deserves better, and YKK does make them, so...why? The other issue was the hood which, without additional cinching options, and if not wearing a helmet, was like pulling a down sleeping bag over your head. Mountain Hard Wear makes great stuff. This jacket doesn't meet that standard.

Really warm!
I don't like being cold, and living in Michigan, this happens. This jacket is lightweight, but very warm. The hood is large, but there are adjustments that can make it the size you want. Very deep pockets. With my other jacket, my gloves would sometimes fall out. Not with this one. The only negative is that it sometimes takes several tries to get the zipper started. This is not a problem I have had with other jackets, but it happens most of the time with this one. As I use the jacket more, it is getting better. If I had to make the decision all over again, I would definitely buy this jacket.

Walking around in a sleep bag
High loft and supper warm. It is a big jacket, not over sized but in dimension. It will keep you very warm. It would have to be very cold to do any high level workout in this so it is mostly for insulation with low action. I do wish the zipper pull was a bit bigger so I added one.

Very Warm But...
This is a "go to" jacket in the cold weather unfortunately I don't think it's going to hold up! The zipper quality is poor at best and it has already started to deteriorate around the base. I wish they would have used a better quality zipper! The jacket won't be of any use if the zipper goes :-(

Great Jacket, Great Function
This is my second down jacket. The first was worn out from many years of outdoor activities.
The jacket is luxuriously soft, incredibly warm, and very lightweight. On the warmer days, the jacket is very comfortable unzipped. On the coldest days, the jacket seems to know what is needed when zipped partially or zipped completely.
The fit is true with just a bit of extra room.
I anticipate many long years of use with this jacket.

Light, quality warmth.
This jacket hits all the right points on paper. 850 down, baffled construction, light fabrics, no frills, etc. Layered correctly, this becomes a 6000m parka. Colin O'Brady used it on Aconcagua. The fit is slightly narrow for my shoulders but otherwise perfect. Had to attach a bigger zipper pull. The hood is also a little funky shaped compared to the similar Nilas. I wish it had a rear shock cord adjuster as well. This parka however has baffled arms and is decidedly better than the Nilas in that regard. This has 180g of 850 vs Nilas 215g. I have used it on Rainier and Hood in winter. Does its job.

It just works
I love this Jacket. In 10 degree weather I can wear only a t-shirt and be warm. Backcountry snowboarding I'll wear a t-shirt, this jacket, and a shell and be warm in a whiteout. I most often use it as a belay jacket and it works like a charm to keep warm in cold and wet conditions while waiting on my climbing partner.
Also, my wife says I'm the reason we can't have nice things (I tend to break stuff), but I've had this jacket for a year and haven't busted it yet! Its a great jacket that does exactly what it says.
Only downside is that the stuff-in-pocket stuff sack is kind of hard to use, and its a fairly large brick once stuffed in the pocket.

Climbing Jacket
I got to use this jacket over the past winter in Alaska. I used it on a winter climb on Mount Sanford and, just recently, for an early season climb on Denali. The jacket is very warm and comfortable, especially when layered. Wind resistance is pretty good and the jacket maintains decent warmth in strong winds (20-30 mph). Though it seems fragile at first glance, the jacket holds up surprisingly well to rougher conditions, though it may not be up to full time wear in harsh, and rough environments.
This is a minimalist jacket. There are 2 hand pockets (1 works as a stow pouch), an internal napoleon pocket and 2 internal stash pockets. The hand pockets are still accessible with a harness on.
The hood is the only frustrating part of this jacket. There are only 2 drawcords near the chin that are perfect for cinching the hood down over your eyes, there's no cord on the back to keep the hood out of your face. It works if you have a cap or helmet on though.
The jacket works great for what most climbers need, a lightweight jacket for stationary locations and summit day. If you're doing higher peaks or ascents in the dead of winter where you may wear this 95% of the time, a burlier jacket might be necessary.
