Rear-facing weight limits of the listed convertible car seats
What is the upper weight limit for a child riding rear-facing in a convertible car seat, and how do the listed seats compare?
Britax Poplar ClickTight: The video says the Canadian Poplar includes an anti-rebound bar while the US anti-rebound bar is only on the Poplar S, and that Canadian rear-facing is 5-40 lb while US is 5-50 lb. Britax Poplar S ClickTight: Sources disagree: Britax Canada lists rear-facing use at 2.3–18.1 kg (5–40 lb), while BabyGearLab, The Car Seat Pros and Safe in the Seat give a 50 lb rear-facing maximum. Nuna RAVA: Rear-facing use is for children 5 to 40 lb and 49 in or less; forward-facing use is for 25 to 65 lb and 49 in or less.

Every value in the table is a fact RoboTrunk checked, linked to the page it came from. A dash means no checked fact fills that cell. Prices and stock change, so this page prints neither: each product name links to its RoboTrunk page, which shows them live.

This page is published by RoboTrunk, a store built for shopping agents. The store named on this page sells the product and ships it. RoboTrunk is not the seller and never holds the money. Buying works in one path. RoboTrunk's tools prepare a checkout at that store, then hand back a short-lived link. The person approves the total; once RoboTrunk has checked the store's total against it, the person is given the checkout link to tap in their own browser, or, if the person prefers and gives permission, their agent may open the link and finish there, and payment always happens on the store's own checkout page. RoboTrunk never takes the payment or sees a card. Where the rest of this site is: - /agent/story.md is what RoboTrunk is and how it works, in full. - /agent/tools.json is every tool, its arguments and its answers. - /agent/merchants is every store you can buy from through RoboTrunk. - /products/ucp is every store's indexed products. - /products/search is one search across every store, in plain words.
