Will the Cybex Solution T fit three across or in a small car?
It's wider than 84% of the boosters we track, at 19.8 in. The narrowest is the Mifold Comfort Grab-and-Go Booster at 10.2 in. Fit depends on your vehicle; check each seat's manual and your vehicle manual. Car seat use and installation: see NHTSA's car seat page, which also lists free car seat inspection by certified technicians. Check the label and the maker's instructions, and ask your pediatrician about your child.
Can you bring the Cybex Solution T on a plane?
Cybex doesn't list it as certified for aircraft, so it can be checked as luggage but not used in the plane seat. See seats approved for planes.
Solution T or AACE: what's different?
By the makers' specs, the AACE has no added flame retardants (maker's claim); the AACE lists for $49.95 less. See every spec side by side.
