Pros

It's a little pricey, but in order to keep your down in tip top shape and working great, you need to clean it properly. Works well on down jackets and gortex items. It is a bonus that it also restores water repellency.

Money saver. Could not be happier.

Use low-temp dryer setting with tennis balls to get the down to bounce back fluffy. Took out the grease and after washing/drying, down return to perfect condition.



Cons

Terrible smell and left white gel everywhere on jacket. Returning it right away.

I tried to fix it by throwing it in the dryer with some dryer balls but still came out flat.


Keeps jackets clean but the smell is horrible

Price


Would definitely recommend buying the larger bottle because you get 10 rinses vs 3 rinses for only double the price

    I had to airfluff dry it for close to 4 hrs to have it completely dry

    The parka came out a lot fluffier than before but sadly still not quite the same as the original state but i think that’s due to me screwing up the down from my initial wash

    So my advice to everyone is don’t wash your parkas unless you absolutely have to
