Pros

It safely cleans all synthetic outerwear & gear without damaging the waterproofing and fillers. Don't use regular detergents prior to using this waterproofing product. Then wash the item per tech wash instructions.

It's too expensive for what it is, but i only wash my gear 3 or 4 times a season.

Shipping

I made that mistake the first time and it took five days instead of one day to receive my products.

Competitiveness

It's expensive compared to my usual detergent, and i haven't used other detergent on the same gear enough to compare the two, b... Read More

So, can't necessarily say it's better than any alternative, but it works for me.
