I've only had my ML Speedy since Xmas but it seems to be just fine. Although I haven't encountered any rain yet.
I remember reading this thread (below) before I ordered mine from Elux and it really put my mind at ease. (as far as durability goes..)

I was worried too before I ordered mine re: durability, sagginess, etc. I'm just glad I finally went ahead and got it!!! It's beautiful!
HTH!!
EDIT: Here's what it says in the care booklet that comes w/ the Mini Lin:
"To enjoy the beauty of your product for many years we advise that you observe the following instructions:
- Even though the canvas is protectedby an anti-stain treatment, light colors remain sensitive to dirt.
- You can clean the canvas by delicately wiping it with a slightly humid and soaped cloth (neutral soap) avoiding contact with the leather trimmings.
- If the leather does get stained, delicately wipe with a dry, soft and light-colored cloth.
- In order to protect your product when not in use, store it in the felt pouch provided.
- Keep away from humidity and avoid exposure to any source of heat or light that could damage your product."
