  "question": "Which convertible car seats are suited to use in taxis and rental cars?",
  "answer": "Maxi-Cosi Romi 2-in-1 Convertible Car Seat: The review says the seat is about 17 inches wide, making it a candidate for fitting three across in a vehicle. The review measured the seat at about 7.8 lb, which it calls as light as many infant seats and unusually light for a convertible. Cosco Kids CC341HLM: Fit-to-vehicle scores were very good forward-facing with LATCH (5 of 5) and good rear-facing with LATCH (4 of 5), but only 3 of 5 for both rear and forward seatbelt installs. The seat is light enough to carry, but its width made it awkward on a backpack strap in a crowded airport, with the carrier bumping into people when turning.",
