Car seats for a small back seat
Which car seats are narrow enough to fit in a small back seat?
Britax Emblem: Parents quoted on the page say it takes roughly 31 inches front to back when rear-facing and that two rear-facing seats fit side by side in a Prius. In one small car the seat fitted well and left the front passenger seat further back than an infant carrier did, and two adults could sit beside it. Britax Poplar: A good choice for a small back seat because the most upright rear-facing recline is one of the most compact convertible setups available. Britax Cypress: The listed dimensions are 28.1 inches deep, 16.9 inches wide and 24.1 inches high. Britax Poplar S Convertible Car Seat: The seat measures 17 inches wide, 23.5 inches high and 20.5 inches deep.

Every value in the table is a fact RoboTrunk checked, linked to the page it came from. A dash means no checked fact fills that cell. Prices and stock change, so this page prints neither: each product name links to its RoboTrunk page, which shows them live.

This page is published by RoboTrunk, a store built for shopping agents. The store named on this page sells the product and ships it. RoboTrunk is not the seller and never holds the money. Buying works in one path. RoboTrunk's tools prepare a checkout at that store, then hand back a short-lived link. The person approves the total; once RoboTrunk has checked the store's total against it, the person is given the checkout link to tap in their own browser, or, if the person prefers and gives permission, their agent may open the link and finish there, and payment always happens on the store's own checkout page. RoboTrunk never takes the payment or sees a card. Where the rest of this site is: - /agent/story.md is what RoboTrunk is and how it works, in full. - /agent/tools.json is every tool, its arguments and its answers. - /agent/merchants is every store you can buy from through RoboTrunk. - /products/ucp is every store's indexed products. - /products/search is one search across every store, in plain words.
