My favorite carseat January 9, 2008 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I would have to disagree with the other review. I own 2 of these and purchased 2 more for the grandparents. The review on consumer reports are GREAT so when we went out to get a toddler carseat we bought one of these, and a Evenflo triumph (also highly rated)(one for each of our cars). I HATE THE TRIUMPH. My son complains his butt hurts. The straps suck. The Alpha Omega is wonderful. It fits in my car as tight as possible. It does not wobble a bit. My husband isnt even able to get it to wobble after we anchor it in. Its very comfortable and my son never complains about his butt hurting. I have since bought another for use for daycare as well as two others for grandparents. The straps tighten easily for us and do not loosen. Its very easy to install if you know anyting about carseats. Theres 2 anchor straps with hooks that hook right into your cars anchor system. As well as one that goes up the back seat to secure the upper portion of the carseat. I recommend it to everyone.
Great price, safe and easy-to-use January 31, 2008 Cosco Alpha Omega has great safety reviews. That's why I bought this convertible car seat. The other reasons are the price and ease of use.
We've had it for a year now, and my 2-year-old son and I are very happy with it. I'm going to buy another one for my 6-month-old daughter when she grows out of her infant car seat.
great carseat March 22, 2008 This carseat is so fantastic. We bought 2 of them, one for our toddler and one for our 5 month old. Both ages are great for this seat, it is comfortable and my husband says it is really simple to install. As well it was simple to adjust the harness for each of them. It is nicely padded, our daughter says it is very comfortable. I read some reviews that the reclining feature was nice for when their kids went to sleep but if you install it correctly the reclining feature is only to make it fit your car properly and for when it is rear facing, you have it in the recline position...which is nice for when they are asleep their heads are not flopped forward. we bought the seats directly from BabyAge because combined shipping was $7. highly recommend this seat!
second as good as the first August 25, 2008 First one worked fine for newest grandchild so when older grandchild's seat was just too yucky (got it used at least 4 years ago for first grandchild)I just gave in and got her a new one, too. LOVE the way the height adjusts for growing kids. No need to even unLATCH the base! Grandma-mobile now boasts the best 3 seats in town! & the best 3 grandkids!
pricey for its quality overall, yet very ergonomically agreeable September 3, 2008 though it has shape good to allow ergonomical fit or snugginess around the child, it does come w/ a harness that is average, if not a tad unfriendly. Quality at first glance is more than any lesser brand w/ a similar price tag. You would expect more sturdiness in the material at this level called "Elite"; but it'd slightly disappoint you, the build quality is rather barely above standard. I rate it 4 stars for its ergonomics and hollow seat that caves in, whereas other brand do not have this. I would recommend it to all nevertheless, albeit its price and disappointing build quality.
