Can you or should you machine wash a sleeping bag?
Virtually all sleeping bags are machine washable and dryable, but check the care label for the manufacturer's recommendations. If washable, use a warm water wash and a gentle cycle. When machine drying down, place a clean pair of tennis shoes in the dryer with the bag. The shoes help to fluff up the down as the bag tumbles. Down bags dry slowly and must be dried completely to prevent mildewing. For larger and heavier bags, use the large capacity machines found in coin- operated laundries. [Info from the Home Maintenance And Repair Database at the Michigan State University website] Yes I have done this many many times. It takes a long time before they are dry. Tip. Make from a satin sheet an insert in the sleeping bag, keeps the sleeping bag clean and inserts are much easier to wash then the sleeping bag. Why satin sheet, because if you turn around in the sleeping bag, the satin will turn with you.

What is better a down or synthetic sleeping bag?
A down sleeping bag is admittedly warmer but if you are going to be camping in conditions where your bag is exposed to water, it is definitely a better idea to buy a synthetic sleeping bag. This is a lot more waterproof and will dry a lot quicker than the down. It also compacts a lot better than down and it definitely lighter.
How To Choose the Proper Camping Sleeping Bag?
Picking the proper sleeping bag can provide an excellent night’s sleep. Often, when using a sleeping bag, people are camping or sleeping in somewhat uncomfortable situations. The right sleeping bag can help alleviate some of that discomfort and allow the user to enjoy quality sleep. Aspiring campers should consider their camping habits, their intended camping season, and what type of sleeping bag design fits their body type. Synthetic sleeping bags do not lose their insulating capabilities when damp and can dry quickly. For rainy camping environments or canoe journeys, a synthetic sleeping bag is a necessity. For long distance hikers, a goose down sleeping bag has excellent compression and a light weight. A goose down sleeping bag is the better choice if campers will be hiking long distances with their packs. However, some campers may be allergic to goose or feather down. Sleeping bags come with a seasonal rating. Recreational campers can find one season sleeping bags, while more experienced camping enthusiasts should consider a three season or four season sleeping bag. Checking the temperature rating of the sleeping bag can tell when it is meant to be used. A thin summer sleeping bag will be ineffective for winter campers. While there are several different shapes of sleeping bags, the classic rectangular and the mummy designs are the most common. A rectangular sleeping bag does not hold heat as well as a mummy sleeping bag. It may also be heavier. But it is easier to enter and exit, and may be a better choice for a claustrophobic camper. A mummy sleeping bag provides better heat retention and a tighter sleeping fit. It works well for cold weather camping. However, it can be difficult to get out of in an emergency. Sleeping bags also come in various designs specific to the body shapes of men, women and children. Choosing the correct sleeping bag for a trip is vital. After a tough day in the outdoors, campers need quality sleep to regain their energy. Poor sleep can lead to potentially dangerous mistakes by tired campers. By choosing the proper camping sleeping bag, campers can enjoy the wilderness while wide awake and alert.
