Safety 1st - Alpha Omega Elite Convertible Car Seat, Silver Spruce

My husbend and I love this carseat we plan on buying another for a son and use it rear-facing. it installed easily and our daugther loves it ..

The only issue I have is that the cup holder is molded only for the child's left. With 2 car seats, only 1 can have a cup holder. I wrote the company but have not as yet had a response. Goes from infant (not prematue or small babies) to toddler (100lbs), single strap tightening, never have to rethread the shoulder straps & individual center strap connectors (I don't like the overlap style). This is not for those who wish to carry the infant in the seat.

Product was purchased for my 22lb. 9 month old to go rear facing in a Toyota mini-van. In order to install correctly, I had to tip the front passenger seat forward, and tip the seat I was installing it in back. Once installed, I took the baby for a ride to see how he liked it. He fell asleep, and even at the very reclined angle, his head still managed to tip forward. I was hoping with the snug sides, that his head would stay in place, but that was not the case. Instead the snug sides left his back wringing wet with sweat. (The a/c was on, his front side was cool.) Because of the sweat, and the uncomfortable sleep, the baby was cranky for the rest of the day. We nicknamed this chair, "the cranky chair" and returned it to Wal-mart at once.

This is a great car seat. It is very easy to install. We have one of these for our 2 1/2 year old son and love it so we bought the same matching one for our 1-year-old daughter.

We only owned this carseat for 3 months and have only taken our son out about 10 times and the chest clip stop working. So i would not recomend this unless you want to buy new parts for it . i am very unsatisfied with it for spending so much money on it.
