  "title": "Car seats for three across in a back seat",
  "question": "Which car seats fit three across in a vehicle's back seat?",
  "answer": "No checked fact confirms that any seat here fits three across. Britax Poplar S: Sources disagree: Bemidjibest lists a 28 lb seat weight and 30–65 lb forward-facing range, while BabyGearLab lists 26.1 lb and the store lists 22–65 lb forward-facing; the review also says it is not a booster, can be bulky front-to-back, and does not guarantee three-across fit. Britax Highpoint: no checked fact covers three-across fit; the closest checked fact is a headrest finding in one vehicle: In a Honda Clarity with non-removable, forward-tilting headrests, a parent found the Highpoint left a gap behind the headrest like the manual’s disallowed example.",
