Backseat problem

4 replies

Muppie Guest ·
Hi!
We have a big car, but still, there's no room for 2 car seats and 1 Maxi-Cosi on the back seat.
Who makes it work? What car do you have and what brand of child seats? Which car seats are narrow?

    I don't have that problem because I only have 1 kid in the car, but I did a quick search for you because it seems pretty tough. I found a list of cars on Autoweek where supposedly 3 car seats should fit side by side. Also, I think I'd ask for advice at a big baby store if there are narrower seats that would fit.

    Hey thanks!!
    Unfortunately, our car is between the list of what seems to fit haha. So then it's indeed searching for narrower seats..
    It's actually quite weird that there's no standard size, I'm definitely not the only one??

    No, you're definitely not the only one. The internet is full of parents with three kids or expecting their third, who are looking for a solution to the same problem.

    I actually find those seats kind of oversized a lot, even in big cars it's a problem..
