Marmot Atom 40°C Sleeping Bag: Unbiased Review
| PRODUCT REPORT |

Marmot Atom 40F sleeping bag won Outside Magazine’s prestigious “Gear of the Year” award for 2005. As a Certified 850+ Fill Goose Down bag, made from Pertex Quantum shell, Atom is so far Marmot’s lightest sleeping bag.
With 3D nautilus hood, ground level seams, excellent zipper system and narrow mummy shape design, Marmot Atom is a good choice for a summer bag. With all features combined, Backpacker Magazine April 2008 proclaimed Marmot Atom 40F as a ‘’sleep-anywhere evidence that luxury and lightweight can go hand in hand.”

For a light summer trip, consumers generally recommend Marmot Atom 40F sleeping bag for its Lightforce nylon shell made to be lightweight yet strong. Atom is designed with water repellant finish, sewn through stretch tricot baffles, down-insulated oversized draft tube that backs full-length zipper to efficiently eliminate moisture for maximum comfort.
The narrow mummy-shaped Atom has 62 x 58 x 40 inches girth size combined with the classic trapezoidal box that allows you to move freely inside the bag yet keeping you warm. The zipper guards and locking zippers are well designed to keep the bag from opening even if you toss and turn when you sleep. The Velcro®-free Face muff keeps the draw cord away from your face while creating a warm down gasket around your face.
Most consumers like Marmot Atom for its premium quality 850-fill-power goose down material that provides the sleeping an extremely compressible feature making it literally small when packed and light to carry. The stuff sack could have been better if it comes with compression straps. Marmot Atom 40F is highly recommended for warm-weather summer camping trips or bike tours.
