Default Poluester batting?

I have used poly batting for many years, hand and long arm quilting for family and QOV (Over 150) with no problems of shifting, wrinkles or any other problems. I will not use any other batting unless doing a quilt for a friend who furnishes other batting. My quilts are washed a lot--for babies up thru weddings.
