  "question": "Which convertible car seats include a top tether for forward-facing use?",
  "answer": "UPPAbaby Rove Convertible Car Seat: The Canadian box includes an anti-rebound bar; the tether is still present but the reviewer says it is not needed rear-facing with the bar and is required forward-facing. Nuna RAVA: The RAVA feels premium, with soft breathable fabric and naturally flame-resistant materials; a fabric wrap keeps the rear-facing tether neat. NHTSA's ease-of-use ratings list a Nuna rava convertible model CS05103CVR, made 2021-08-24, at 3 of 5 stars overall in both rear- and forward-facing modes; these are ease-of-use ratings, not crash-test results, and the listing does not identify this Pewter SKU.",
