Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"The Mountain Hardwear Chugach 3D Jacket is an ideal insulator if you're venturing into the land of soggy summits. Polarguard 3D insulation captures your body's warmth, even if it's become wet during that ten-day storm on the West Buttress. Vapor Therm/Nylon taffeta lining offers low-friction comfort. The Chugach's low back and hem drawcords allow you to conserve every last degree of warmth."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Synthetic insulation dries far faster and often remains more resilient especially if it's the soft, warm and lofty Polarguard 3D found in this Chugach Jacket. Polarguard 3D insulation features a continuous fiber filament that won't shift, clump or mat like other polyester and down fill. The overall weight of the jacket is comparable to other down-filled climbing and mountaineering jackets and it offers a similar internal and external pocket configuration. If you're headed for spaces and places with vacillating or unpredictable temperature changes, the Mountain Hardwear Chugach is a smart choice."

From US Outdoor Store:
"Description of the Mountain Hardwear Chugach Jacket All of the warmth of down, without the bulk or weight. Designed for alpine climbing, the Mountain Hardwear Chugach Jacket keeps you warm with Polarguard® 3D and abrasion resistant, ripstop nylon. Soft, moisture-wicking ThermaStat™ lines the torso for comfort and breathability, while Vapor Therm Nylon taffeta keeps you warm and toasty. Keep your essentials secure and close by in Chugach inner security pocket. The insulated and lined handwarmer pockets are placed high so that they won't get in the way of hipbelts or a climbing harness. A synthetic insulation jacket, the Mountain Hardwear Chugach is driven to take you to the top of the mountain. Features:One handed hem and lower back drawcords Interior zip pocket Power Stretch® cuffs Stuff sack included"

"This is a great jacket, I have yet to get noticeably cold under it. It's awesome for light packers, as it weighs just about nothing and will compress down to the size of a shoe. The lowest temperatures I've taken it to have been the mid teens, and it has been warm."

"This jacket is packable, lightweight, and warm. I've worn it on Shasta, in the Sierras, and in our local mtns and have never been cold, even in temps as low as 12F. It makes a great pillow when stuffed, and fits really well. I would recommend the Chugach 3D jacket with two thumbs up."

"Awesome jacket, down warmth without the bulk. It even fits under the MH Recon Jacket which is tight for me thru the chest.

Quibbles: outside chest pocket, fleece-lined collar and a drawstring for the collar.

Sorry I waited this long to pick one up."

"I like very much this jacket. It is ultra light, very warm in the winter days, very nice design, and I think very cheaper because is a good jacket, but in the windy days you need a shell."

"This jacket has kept me warm down to 10 degrees (colder with shell) and comfortable up to 50--quite a range with just one layer under it. It's been pretty wind resistant as well. Great all-around jacket with or without a shell. It also packs pretty well."

"Very nice well made jacket (as you would expect from Mountain Hardware). Super light and comfortable, with very good insulating properties. Stuffs down to unbelievably small making it handy to pack along. Have used it with just a turtleneck and a light sweater down to 5 degrees farenheit and stayed warm."
