Pros: adjusts to different ages
Cons: cost
For those that are frugal and safety conscious, you understand well that sometimes, you have to spend more to get the most for your money. That is certainly the case with this carseat.
Many infants today are reaching the magical "20...

Pros: Nothing goes over the head,neutral colors,adaptable for different cars
Cons: none
I wish they had come out with this car seat sooner.I purchased one of these that did not have the overhead bar (they also make them with it).Instead it has two straps that go around the baby's arms (not over the head)with a center piece and a divided...

Pros: Versatile, easy to use, economic
Cons: None!
Before my son was born, my husband and I spend countless hours searching for the perfect car seat. We compared our search for the perfect seat to that of the astronaut's search for life on Mars. I mean, we SERIOUSLY searched (as all new parents do!)...

Pros: Safety-straps extremely easy to adjust, rear-facing to 35 lbs
Cons: Too large to safely use with a newborn, somewhat cumbersome
When my third child outgrew his infant seat, I knew it was time to go carseat shopping yet again. Having been through four carseats already, and with my second child still in her booster, I really wasn't looking forward to this purchase. Still, it was...

Pros: Rear facing to 35 pounds.
Cons: Huge when rear facing. Twisty straps. Low top harness setting. Difficulty getting harness tight.
I purchased this seat because I wanted a seat that was rear facing for as long as possible. I purchased the Alpha Omega because it is rear facing until 35 pounds. I have the five point harness version and would never put my child in a shield seat as...

Pros: Rear facing to 35 lbs, front to 70, easy to adjust, roomy
Cons: Big
It was time to buy a new car seat. My wife wanted one that would accept a child rear-facing until high school. Unfortunately, most would only take them up to 20 lbs. Our choice was between this one and the britax, since each would allow rear facing up...

Pros: Very user friendly, fits children 5-80 lbs., comes with an instructional video
Cons: A bit pricey, but definitely worth it
With my son rapidly outgrowing his infant carrier, I was forced to find a car seat that was rear facing for a child heavier than 20 lbs. I talked with a Pediatrician about car seats and she recommended this one. I then researched the internet and...

Pros: rear facing up to 30 pounds, less expensive than others
Cons: bulky, springs popped out, 3 point restraint (instead of 5)
I purchased the Alpha Omega (3 point harness with overhead tray) car seat for my daughter when she was a little over 3 months old because she had already outgrown her "infant seat". I thought I did my homework really well, and thought this...

Pros: Safety
Cons: large, can't take it in and out, the arm is inconvenient
When it came time to but a carseat, I did a lot of research. Ideally, we would have liked to by a Britax but simply could not afford it. I think the Cosco Alpha Omega comes close.
We do a lot of highway travel, so we wanted a really stable,...

Pros: Adaptable to different cars and kids
Cons: Big and requires a little time to install
I researched car seats online and in stores before purchasing the Alpha Omega. My research caused me to pass on the shielded model pictured. I opted for the five point harness model without the shield. I am glad I did. I looked at the shielded model in...

Pros: adjustable sheild, wide base, can handle small and large babies!
Cons: it is just too big to fit in some cars!
When I became pregnant with our first child, my husband and I wanted only the best for her. After many hours of window shopping and comparison, we decided to purchase the Alpha Omega carseat. Although it was quite a bit higher in price than some of the...

Pros: Good construction and features.
Cons: Five-point harness can be tricky to use.
When our daughter was close to outgrowing her infant car seat, me husband and I went on a search for a new seat. We looked at every seat we could find. After looking at all the types of seats available, we decided to narrow our search to only seats...

Pros: Easy to adjust, not to difficult to install.
Cons: It's huge, and the straps are constantly getting twisted
I had bought the Alpha Omega with five point harness after my child quickly outgrew her infant carrier, and I had done so much research that my head spun. I purchased this seat for the main reason that it is able to hold a child up to 80 pounds, and I...

Pros: It will grow with your child.
Cons: The straps tangle. It's enormous.
I bought the AO based on numerous recommendations. I hemmed and hawed about it too, because I considered it on the pricey side. Now that I've had it for a year, I can't take it anymore and I'm throwing it away.
1. My toddler has always been...

Pros: Plush feeling and comfortable, solid and nice features
Cons: Frustrating buckle, very wide base makes other seat buckles hard to access
As our daughter outgrew her infant carrier/carseat, we had to buy a new one. Our petite daughter (under 20 lbs) still needed a rear facing car seat even though she was of toddler age. She's very comfortable in this plush and very usable carseat. But ...
