Have a backpacking trip coming up and decided to upgrade from my 4 pound cold weather synthetic bag to a new 2 pound down bag. I get it in the mail and it has been sitting in the living room for a couple days. Tonight I take it out to look at it. Someone took out the down bag and stuffed a cheap Suisse Sport bag inside the stuff sack. WTF! Good thing I checked it and didn't get out on the trail with that.

Some of those chemicals protect the sleeping bag. I want to keep them adhered as long as possible.

I did search about this and consensus is to not to wash the bags. They are expensive and if you want them to last as long as possible you should wash them as little as possible.
