Top reviews from the United States
I normally wear size small shirts, with occasional mediums. I bought a medium vest and it is fine for me--it even fits over my black winter jacket (which is probably like most people's fall/spring jacket, but the cycling keeps me warm--so maybe go up if you're trying to fit it over a winter coat). In that regard, I suppose my experience with the sizing is different from others'--it seems more or less true to size, but I went larger anyway because I can sometimes get away with that size and expected to occasionally wear it over a jacket.
I've had it for a few months now, and it's holding up well. It's very lightweight (100% polyester) but the zipper (my typical point of failure) is still going strong, and I've only had to deal with one slightly loose thread (which I've cut and has since been fine, though it had me worried about the quality for a while). It's inexpensive enough that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
Update Feb 15, 2020: Almost 3 year update. This vest is going strong! The color is still bright despite having the neighbor's dog jump all over me with muddy paws. The reflective strips work fantastically and haven't faded or cracked at all. The zipper has worked 100% of the time with no hangups ever. I wear this vest twice a day in all weather. I have since changed my mind- it doesn't need pockets. The neighbors all recognize me from my vest and comment how much they love it. I think this is one of the best things I've purchased for our twice daily walks. The other is a glowing collar for the dog.
Cars are now more aware of me. Because I wear this at all times, it is very hard to miss me--the green catches attention very quickly. This vest has persevered in all kinds of weather, and I'm glad I bought this. Being safe while cycling isn't just buying a helmet. Being safe is also about being as visible as possible--especially at nighttime. The reflectors on this vest work very well in conjunction with my flashlight and wheel lights to create a very, very visible cyclist for motorists.
While, yes, I have to deal with jerk motorists who like to blind me by flashing their brights at me repeatedly, I do feel safer for having bought this visibility vest. If you cycle around motorists--a lot or a little--this is a must.
In case any of you are wondering: This IS machine washable. I had to do a bit of research to decipher the clothes care symbols on the label. Basically: Wash in cold water. Do not bleach. Do not iron. Do not tumble dry.
