Most \"van seats\" are either too narrow to be useful, or they're benches that aren't designed to carry passengers in transit. The Duo SX is a full-width, two-person bench with integrated 3-point belts that folds flat into a sleeping surface when you're parked. It's the seat we recommend to clients who want their van to sleep four — two up front, two in back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0803\/4808\/6514\/files\/NovaLux_Duo_SX-Measurement.webp?v=1779986221\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-dropdowns\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails open=\"\"\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy we put this in our own builds\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoosing a second-row van seat usually comes down to a frustrating trade-off: narrow seats that cost a lot, or wide benches without integrated belts.
