If you choose the washing machine route, choose a front-loading machine and set the dials so that you wash the bag in warm water and rinse it in cold. Use a small amount of mild soap.
Dry your bag in a large commercial dryer at a laundromat with a few terry cloth towels and tennis balls. Set the heat on medium-low, and be prepared to spend a lot of quarters and at least three or four hours before your bag is completely dry. In addition to washing your bag, there are a few other steps you can take to extend its life. Be sure to stuff your sleeping bag instead of rolling it. Stuffing it is better for the fabric and the fill. Never yank your sleeping bag from your stuff sack, and always choose a storage bag that is large and breathable. Wearing a t-shirt, shorts, and socks to bed will keep sweat and oil off your bag. Always put your bag on a ground cloth, and air out your bag after each use.
