I have shirts and things that were bought from places that use the professional hot-fix presses that have held up for dozens of washes, but the designs I've ironed on myself have not been as secure in the wash, which makes me think that slight variations in temperature when they were applied can make a big difference in washability.

But for costume pieces that will rarely be washed, and then only hand washed, I think hot-fix stones are a good thing to have in your arsenal.
