Not necessarily speaking to this item, but a lot of us think of REI-brand stuff as being very high quality. And it's usually cheaper than the high-end brands at MSRP with similar quality.
I think, in my mind at least, anything that's a major discount off MSRP for REI-branded feels like a good deal.
Again I don't know anything about this jacket, but just a general explanation of why people felt it was a good deal.
I have the non-hoodie version of this, picked up on another SD deal for like $30 a year ago. I like it a lot. I use it as a midlayer for skiing, take it on trips, use it compressed as a pillow, wear it around town, etc.
Packability and warmth to weight ratio are both great, it layers well, and is excellent for hiking and active sports. I prefer primaloft over down insulation for sweaty activities because it a) keeps warmth when wet and b) holds up to washing better. I run hot but I think I can wear this comfortably from roughly 35F-65F depending on activity level. It is surprisingly warm.
I have mountain hardwear ghost whisperer, patagonia nano puff, etc. IMO this jacket is pretty much on par with all of them for a fraction of the price (w/ this deal).

Thread was at +12 rating when I got here, before I gave it a thumbs down.
There is no way that at least 12 actual users voted this thread up. It's a terrible deal on a no-name branded item. These thumbs up are suspicious.

Helpful, thanks. I've seen a few other REI posts by SD Staffers today, so I suspect a marketing campaign is underway, but I suppose that doesn't necessarily mean that the items possibly being shilled are garbage.

I liked this jacket a lot but the sizing didn't work for me. I am 6'4, 175lb. Large was too wide. Medium was workable but a little too tight in shoulders. Just fyi for anyone not sure about the fit.

REI just today started a clearance sale on past-season clothing, thus the deal posts!
Items are not being shilled; they're on clearance right now and sizes go OOS super quickly.
I have an REI membership and love the clearance sales (w/ free shipping for members).
I'm familiar with them as a retailer, but I've never noticed anyone raving about their house-brand stuff. I may be out of the loop on this, just my experience.
REI's house brand is generally very high quality and less expensive than most of their competition. Speaking as an an avid backpacker I can tell you that REI branded packs, tents and clothing are very nice. Something like their Flash 55 backpack is one of the most recommended beginner packs on the Internet. My father and a friend both have hoodless versions of this jacket and are very happy with them.

REI is a no name brand?
