The colors are great, the material is good, the assembly is great. But the tags say hand wash..... No tag can tell me how to run my life.

I'll admit I'm lazy. I didn't check the washing instructions before I ordered them. So when they came, they look equal to the bras I bought at penny's in the same style. But I'm lazy and if I can't wash it I don't want it. So I took on fate and machine washed them. And then machine dried them. (With some towels) they survived!!!!
Although if you are brave, don't let them sit wet for too long because previous experience, that can mess up the cups.
