I have washed many down products, especially my original Marmot Mtn.-Grand Junction, custom expedition bag as I used to put 70+ nights per year on it. In 21 years, it showed no deterioration.

I have washed my Feathered Friends UL bag many times since 1989 and it is as new with scores of night's use.

I will wash my new WM Alpinlite Super when it needs it and also my Integral Designs bags, a custom XPDII that cost a freakin'bundle and two Primaloft bags. I fully expect to encounter zero problems doing so as I took time to learn how to do it properly before my first attempt.
