Criterion Quantum 200 Down Sleeping Bag

£300.00

Product Description

The Criterion Quantum 200 is an ultralight sleeping bag and the lightest down sleeping bag in our range. Designed for minimalists, ultralight hikers and adventure racers. With a comfort temperature rating of 0°C, this is a bag for the summer. Its weight is a mere 530 grams, so it will add hardly any weight to your rucksack.

It is made using a Pertex Quantum (35gms/m²) ripstop shell filled with 200g of 850 FP Polish Goose down. Boxwall construction helps keep the weight down to a minimum.

A DWR treatment of the shell helps protect the down from any dampness that may occur in your tent, from condensation or wet gear. When in its stuff sack, the pack size of 11 x 11 x 25 cm is absolutely tiny. Since it takes up hardly any room you will be able to use a smaller rucksack.

Suggest Outdoors Activities

The Criterion Quantum 200 down sleeping bag can be used for a diverse range of activities including ultralight hiking, 3 season trekking, micro-adventures, endurance racing/adventure racing/mountain marathons, cycle touring and traveling/indoor use. The comfort temperature is 0°C, so you will not overheat during the summer or whilst sleeping indoors, however it will allow you to sleep outside even when the temperature approaches freezing. The weight of 530 grams means that you can keep your pack light, which is vital when taking part in competitions.

Industry Reviews

Quantum 200 Down Sleeping Bag

The weight of this package is a very respectable 530g and it will happily pack down to size of 11cm x 11cm x 25cm should you be inclined to use the included stuff-sack or around 2.5 litres and the stated comfort rating is 0c. Now, ratings are always a heavily debated topic and something else we can’t always agree on. There’s so many factors at play that any figure will always be a guide and not definitive. However, as someone who sleeps reasonably cold, my initial trials would indicate that zero is quite realistic. Obviously, a rating of 0c, doesn’t place the Quantum into what people might consider the 4 season category but it comes tantalisingly close and we know that the addition of some suitable clothing could tip the scales and allow year round use

Bear Bones Bikebacking 13th March 2020

“…you want low weight and a small pack size? To save weight, Criterion uses 870 fill power down insulation that
is housed in a super-thin Pertex Quantum ripstop nylon shell. The result is a bag weighing just 559g that packs down to an incredible 15x16cm while keeping you warm to 0°C.”

Trail Magazine August 2018 – ‘Choose the right Summer Sleeping Bags’

“It is the weight of just 558g and the packed size of 13x20cm that instantly set this bag apart….the packed size, weight and price make it excellent value for money for lightweight backpacking.”
Positives: price;extremely lightweight; packed size; full length side-zip. Negatives: not as warm as the heavier bags; no shoulder baffle.

Trail Magazine Outdoors Gear Guide 2017 – ‘Summer Sleeping Bags’

“..an extremely lightweight and compact product … great for summer. The price, packed size and weight make this bag ideal and far better value than most for lightweight, summer backpacking. The full length side zip … is unique among bags [tested] here, which is ideal on warm nights to cool the feet. This is a major benefit.”

Live for the Outdoors August 2016 – (Full Review)

Reviewer’s first choice in the ‘Lightweight Junkie’ section.

Trail Magazine, August 2007 – ‘Wild Nights’

“Packs down amazingly small. Perfect for fast and light summer crossing of The Lakes or for regular adventure racers.”

10 reviews for Criterion Quantum 200 Down Sleeping Bag

  1. Richard S –

    My walk in Queensland was brilliant. We got a window of good weather between weeks of rain and barely saw any others until nearing the end of the walk. So glad I bought the CQ200 as that was plenty warm enough. I’ve used it a couple of times since in much cooler, coastal Victoria and it’s been perfect for Spring conditions here. Next walk scheduled for April and again, the CQ200 will be what I take. That’ll be the Victorian Great Ocean Walk.

  2. Steve –

    I’ve been using the Criterion Quantum 200 for a few years and it is a high quality bag with great specs, super soft, yet shrugs off damp/condensation and is designed for travelling light and fast. Hence it does away with ‘niceties’ like a neck baffle and a thicker zip baffle which I have really noticed when using in Spring and Autumn when the temperature drops close to freezing. If you like to be sealed in, particularly round the neck line, perhaps consider their Prime bags instead which have neck baffles and more comfort levels for only a small increase in weight

  3. Craig –

    I was recently using my brilliant Quantum 200 on the OMM (Original Mountain Marathon) competition and unfortunately my stuff sac went missing, probably got blown away in the high winds we experienced in the Welsh Brecons!

    I have been using a Quantum 200 for 4 years now. It has served me well as a summer bag in the U.K. None of the other manufacturers can beat you on weight for warmth. Thank you for a great summer bag.
