From RockCreek:
"The Atom 40 F Sleeping Bag is Marmot's lightest bag. The perfect bag to take with you on any summer backpacking/climbing trip with its warmth to weight ratio being remarkable. The Atom also has a smooth feel like you are sleeping on silk sheets, which can definately help you on that summit push the next day. Filled with certified 850+ Fill Goose Down, the best down in the market; independently tested and certified by International Down and Feather Laboratory in Salt Lake City, Utah. Retested at fill time in Santa Rosa to ensure 850+ fill power every time. Sewn through baffles makes the overall weight lighter and a side blocked below the end of the zipper keeps the down evenly distributed eliminating any cold spots that could occur. The Atom won Outside Magazine's prestigious "Gear of the Year" award for 2005."

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"The Marmot Atom's ultra-light design and highest quality down have given it cult status among extreme alpinists as a bivvy bag on extreme climbs, but its comfortable, silky fabric make it a great bag for warm-weather bivvies on casual summer road trips as wellMarmot Atom Specifications: Weight:"

From Backcountry.com:
"One single pound is how much the incredible Marmot Atom 40-Degree Down Sleeping Bag weighs. How did Marmot brings this sleeping bag's weight down to 16oz (regular)? They started off with high-loft 850+ fill down and covered the insulation with an ultralight LightForce nylon shell. An ideal choice for warm-weather summer camping trips or bike tours, the Marmot Atom Sleeping Bag is so light that you won't even notice it in your pack."

"Great all around bag! Like the other reviewers, I took my Atom down to the mid 30's and was very confortable. Weighs nothing and extremely comfortable; plenty of room. Im extremely impressed with this bag, I might just go buy a Helium for those colder nights."

"This bag is as promised. I slept comfortable in temps in the mid to lower 30's. This bag also packs down to next to nothing, don't use the stuff sack that comes with it because it's too big, you can go much smaller."

"So far as I am concerned Marmot is the Technical gear leader these days. Before I would have told you this was The North Face, but everything Marmot builds or creates is just better. This bag is no different.

I have been using the Marmot Helium bag but wanted a summer bag as well."
