  "question": "Which convertible car seats have the strongest crash test results?",
  "answer": "UPPAbaby Rove: In this lab's commissioned crash tests the Rove scored one of the best results, with head and chest sensor forces below the group average, indicating an extra margin of protection. The Rove performed very well in this lab's crash test protocol with no significant structural integrity issues, and crash protection was rated at the top level.\nGraco SlimFit 3-in-1 Narrow All-in-One Convertible Car Seat: Testers report the SlimFit had some of the best crash-test sensor results in their comparison, with low HIC and chest-clip forces.\nRomer-dc-dc Veni Convertible Car Seat: Crash test results were better than average but not standout; the chest clip sensor results were good and the head sensor results were relatively low but not the lowest.\nCYBEX Sirona S: In that lab’s crash-test analysis the seat scored below average against the competition, though it meets federal standards; head sensor readings were better than most but the chest clip reading was not.\nCybex (sold as Cybex-dc) Callisto G 360: In independent sled testing the seat gave below-average sensor readings: head sensor results were just below average and chest clip g-forces were significantly above average, though it was not the worst in its group. In independent simulated frontal crash tests with a forward-facing 6-year-old dummy installed with lap-and-shoulder belt plus top tether, the tether system released before the head reached its most forward position in all three tests — the tether hook broke twice and the sled's tether anchor broke once; in a weighted 6-year-old dummy test the tether strap sheared off after the double webbing section.",
