  "question": "Which booster-type child car seats fold down small enough to pack away easily?",
  "answer": "WAYB Pico: The video shows the folded seat is small enough for an overhead bin, about the depth of a standard carry-on and slightly shorter, and it comes out of its bag tightly packed. Used on a California trip, the seat folded small enough to go in a backpack or carry-on and at just over 8 lb was not a shoulder workout to haul around.\nWAYB Pico (second listing): The seat folds practically flat and stashes in the optional backpack travel bag; the writer says it fits in the airplane overhead bin and does not count as a carry-on.",
