  "title": "Slim convertible car seats for a small back seat",
  "question": "Which slim convertible car seats fit well in a small back seat?",
  "answer": "Graco SlimFit3 LX: The seat is about 16.7 inches wide at the shoulders, with a base about 11.5 inches wide, making it one of the narrowest convertible seats tested. Graco confirmed that three SlimFit3 LX seats fit three-across in a 2019-2021 Toyota RAV4 in several configurations, including all forward-facing, all rear-facing, and mixed modes.\nGraco SlimFit 3-in-1 Narrow All-in-One Convertible Car Seat - Sydney: The rotating cupholders can be turned to reduce the seat's width.\nEvenflo All4Stages Slim Plus Canopy 4-in-1 Convertible Car Seat: The seat is 16.9 in. wide, which the maker says saves space for other backseat passengers and can allow three car seats across the back seat.\nEvenflo All4Stages Slim 4-in-1 Convertible Car Seat: 16.9 in.\nEvenflo Revolve360 Slim 2-in-1 Rotating Car Seat with Quick Clean Cover: The seat's exterior was slimmed to a 16.7-inch footprint while keeping the child's seating space and safety. Testers could never get a stable LATCH install across several cars; the LATCH strap's plastic release buckle collides with the plastic bevel on the base and stops the strap being tightened enough to remove sideways movement.",
