This stuff is awesome
If you've spent the money on a quality down jacket, sweater, or sleeping bag then spend the few extra bucks to protect your goods with Nikwax Downwash. I just washed my Marmot Zues jacket that had a year worth of dirt and man sweat built up on it. When it came out of the dryer I was shocked by the vibrancy of the color. Be sure to use a few clean tennis balls in the dryer to bring the fluff back to the down.

great product
A little pricey, but you get what you pay for. Used it for cleaning a 600 fill down vest and it cleaned up well. Some greasy stain did not totally fade (but pre-spotting the second time did the trick). As others have mentioned pre soaking in the machine really makes a difference in getting garment clean would definitely buy again.

Amazing and very cost effective
I am glad I bought this item. I used it to wash my down comfortable, jacket, and sleeping bag. I am pretty happy with the result. One thing to note is; make sure to check for lumps during drying process. Tumble dry(no heat) and keep drying it until there are no clumps of down. I also put 3 tennis balls in the dryer to make them puffy. I definitely will buy it again.
