Narrowest convertible car seat at 16.5 inches wide โ€” fits 3-across in standard back seats. Lightweight at 10 lbs. Meets all federal FMVSS 213 safety standards.

B+Best Budget

The Scenera Next is the narrowest convertible seat on the market at 16.5 inches wide, making it the go-to for families needing three seats across a standard back seat. Under $50, it passes all federal safety standards and has acceptable crash test scores. The harness requires manual rethreading to change heights, the padding is minimal, and the cover isn't removable โ€” but for a dedicated travel or grandparent car seat, it does the job without requiring much financial commitment.

Pros

  • Narrowest convertible seat available โ€” fits 3-across in most back seats
  • Passes all federal FMVSS 213 safety standards
  • Lightweight at 10 lbs, easy to move between vehicles

Cons

  • Manual harness rethread required every time height changes
  • Thin padding and non-removable cover limit comfort and cleanability
