Why this product
Why the CVT La Sal Hardshell 56"?
The 56" version of the La Sal adds 6 inches of width over the 50", bumping sleeping capacity to 3. The trade-off is 10 extra pounds at 158 lbs. Same 3-inch mattress and 600D poly-cotton canvas as its smaller sibling. If you frequently camp with a partner and want that extra room, the width difference is meaningful for sleep quality. Same 5-minute setup consideration applies.
