This rich-mom-style sweatshirt 'rivals Lululemon' — now $28 (nearly 50% off)

'Flattering fit and so comfy': Get this on-trend pullover for a fourth of what its splurgier counterpart costs.

Have you seen the term "rich mom style" floating around your social media feeds? The trend seems to be popping up everywhere and refers to a timeless, effortlessly put-together aesthetic that looks luxurious and expensive but doesn't necessarily have to break the bank. Case in point: the Automet Half-Zip Pullover, which is the epitome of chic "mom-running-errands-esque" attire. Many reviewers say it's a dead ringer for the popular Lululemon Scuba, which retails for $118. The Automet, on the other hand, is on sale for less than one-fourth of that at Amazon, thanks to an additional on-page coupon. Turns out "rich mom" is also fashionably frugal!

Pair this with your favorite leggings, jeans or shorts and you've got your official rich-mom-on-the-go uniform.

Why is it a good deal? 💰

This sweatshirt has been on sale a few times, but the heather gray (among other shades) is down to just $28 with the on-page coupon. Several other colors are within a few bucks of that price too — with savings hovering around 30%-40% (or more), that's a darn good deal.

Why do I need this? 🤔

Most sweatshirts, though comfy, tend to be rather shapeless and casual-looking, but the Automet has a more elevated structure, with details that set it apart. For starters, it's slightly cropped for a more fitted appearance, and the on-trend half-zip style has more flair than your standard crewneck.

There's a front pocket for warming up your hands, and thumb holes on the wrists help keep the sleeves from sliding around. Because it's fleece-lined, it'll make a cozy, warm layer under a jacket when the temps drop, though you could wear it over a tank on still-warm early fall days as well.

It comes in more than 30 colors, including everything from classic neutrals to fun brights, in sizes XS-XL (reviewers say it generally runs true to size, but might be a little big depending on how oversized or fitted you prefer your clothes).

What reviewers say 💬

Just how popular is this sweatshirt? Well, it already has over 1,900 perfect ratings from Amazon customers.

Pros 👍

"Great quality," raved one satisfied shopper. "So soft and comfy. Rivals Lululemon for a fraction of the price. Highly recommend."

"This is such a flattering fit and so comfy," swooned another. "It is cropped, but if you have high-waisted pants or wear a tank underneath, your belly is safe from showing. So comfy and warm."

"Love this sweatshirt so much that I'm considering buying it in other colors," shared a third. "No pilling or fading after washing so far. I basically live in this sweatshirt at home. I love the thumbholes as well."

Cons 👎

"My only complaint is the zipper pull is overactive," wrote an otherwise pleased buyer. "Like, bounces around nonstop and makes a little jingling sound." That said, they added, "This sweatshirt is super soft and I like it perhaps a little more than the Lululemon Oversized Scuba. It's a better fit on me and lighter than the Scuba, so easier to wear, but still cozy and warm enough. It's very soft inside!"

Several reviewers had the same note as this final fan, who said, "One small drawback is that it is somewhat short if you are tall. Overall, though, I love this sweatshirt."

That's Automet, not automat — although at these prices, we can see why it would be easy to confuse the two.
