Pros: Can be used for newborn to 80#. Cons: Shoulder harnesses often twist making adjustment difficult.
The first car seat I bought when I found out I was pregnant was the Britax Roundabout. Then I read about the versatility of the Alpha Omega. I don't particularly care for the infant car seat/carriers, as I believe that babies should be held or carried...

Pros: I won't have to buy another carseat Cons: Big/ hard to buckle
We purchased this carseat when my son outgrew his rear facing infant seat at only 6 1/2 months old. He wasn't old enough to move to a forward facing seat, but too heavy to be safe in his old seat.
So it was off to find a rear facing seat for...

Pros: Easy to install and use. Cons: Big for an infant, straps get twisted easily.
The idea of this seat is wonderful. Your baby can grow with from infant to booster seat. However, I think some of the flaws in this seat are because it tries to accomplish too much. This seat stays in my husband's truck, where it doesn't have to get...

Pros: Rear-faces to 35lbs, all harness settings reinforced, good concept Cons: Bad design, Harness too short
I purchased this carseat in February for my then 4 month old daughter who was outgrowing her infant seat. We chose this one (well, my dh chose this one) because it rear-faced to 35 pounds, came with a tether, and because it would work as a booster seat...

Pros: "lifetime" carseat Cons: harness system tangles
Okay having 4 kids I have had my fair share of car seats. At least 10 and I think this is a low number. When my son was born in September my husband and I decided that once he outgrew the infant carseat and when we could find the Alpha Omega with the 5...

Pros: Versatile, attractive,easy to use Cons: Expensive, harness belts twist at times
After much research, my husband and I decided to purchase Alpha Omega car seats for our twin daughters. They were expensive ($211.00 for both), but we concluded that if the car seats were what the manufacture claimed they were, we would save money...

Pros: Ease of use, kids love it, color Cons: cost and sometimes the plastic bar can get hot
This carseat rocks, simply put. My wife and I purchased this carseat to replace our infant one. The cost was a little high, but well worth it after all. There are a lot more advantages than disadvantages to having this carseat.
Let's start...

Pros: From birth to Booster Cons: expensive, high seat back
This carseat is great. Its a lot less bulky than most of the other convertible carseats. We had originally installed a Century rear facing.
The straps were just too hard to get around our little boy to get him in and out of the carseat. We found...

Pros: see above Cons: A bit pricey, but well worth it!
This is a terrific seat! Versatile, stylish, sturdy and best of all- easy to install and use. We wanted to purchase one car seat that would serve us until our child was old enough to use an adult belt.. This seat can accommodate weights from 6-70lbs.....

Pros: Easy use, secure, safe and adjustable Cons: Video should be included
We were having major problems with our 18 month old, we could not keep him in the carseat. This was becoming extremely dangerous as he seemed to be out of his previous seat in seconds and usually waited until we were moving before making his 'dash for...

Pros: supports children up to 80lbs., 5 point harness, well padded.
Cons: Not for small infants, big, bulky, heavy, blocks the view of my right rear window.
When my husband and I went out looking for a car seat to scan for my baby shower, we came across the Alpha Omega car seat. I liked that fact that it supports children up to 80lbs in weight but my husband decided that was the car seat that we should get...

Pros: Great buy for those who need an easily adjustable seat that grows with your child! Cons: Do not opt for the one with the shield, use the 5 pt harness instead.
A friend told me about a great deal on the Alpha Omega seat online. Since my daughter was rapidly outgrowing her infant seat way ahead of schedule, we opted to go for one that would hold until she reached the high end of 70 lbs. So we purchased it and it...

Pros: 5-80 lbs, lots of padding, 5 point harness Cons: Heavy and bulky
The Alpha Omega carseat is one of the best investments we have made for out child. Yes, it is does have a higher price, but it is worth every cent.
My grandmother bought mine for me as a shower gift, but I picked it out. I knew I wanted a 5...

Pros: safety, durability Cons: higher price
When the time came to replace the carseat my son was using,one his oldest sister had used before him, I knew I wanted one that would last. So I looked at several models and came up with two that fit my needs. The Cosco Alpha Omega and an Eddie Bauer...

Pros: Rear and front facing and booster seat Cons: Large
When my son grew out of his infant seat we went in search for the perfect new car seat. We heard from many friends to try the Alpha Omega by Cosco. So we went out and found the 5 point Alpha Omega.
While looking at it we were very impressed by...
