PLA is water resistant so far i know,
It is true when you have hot water that it might bend if hot enough,
ABS is simple more impact resistant and can get more heat till bending,
As strong goes i did a stretch test a while ago on a machine and they were both VERY simulair, Not even worth to mention it,
I personaly also like the XT series and PLA/pha from Colorfabb, i am testing them right now and i am fairly suprised about there quality
